<h3>What is an Allusion?</h3>
An allusion is used by authors when they want to refer to a person, event, animal, place, date, or anything in particular without making a specific or direct reference to such a noun.
Usually, allusions work because the author and the reader share a common knowledge of a certain fact, and the reader understands the author's reference as a result.
I would start with simple definitions to teach them, the words would depend on the grade they are in, then the words would get harder as we make progress.
