V. Lesson Proper

“Our lesson for today is about figures of


speech. In this lesson, we will be dealing with
these objectives."

- Identify figures of speech that show


comparison (simile, metaphor,
personification)

“Now, let us know what simile is. Can you please


read the meaning of simile?”

I. SIMILE

A simile is a figure of speech that makes a


comparison, showing similarities between two
different things. Unlike a metaphor, a simile
draws resemblance with the help of the words
“like” or “as”.
Therefore, it is direct comparison.

“Everybody please read the given examples


of simile.”

Examples:

1. The baby sleeps like a Koala.


2. My best friend is as stubborn as a mule.
3. After that meal, I feel as fat as a pig

Note: Using “like” or “as” doesn’t make a (Students’ answer may vary)
simile.

Not a simile: I like pizza.


Simile: The moon is like a pizza.

“Everybody, let us now read what metaphor


is.”

2.Metaphor

Metaphor is a figure of speech that makes an


implicit, implied, or hidden comparison between
two things that are unrelated without the use of
like or as, but which share common
characteristics. In other words, a resemblance of
two contradictory or different objects is made
based on a single or some common
characteristics.

Examples:

1. Men are dogs.


2. That boy is a pig.
3. Her dance is a great poem.

“Did you understand class?”


“Yes Ma’am!”
“Now read the meaning and examples of
personification class.”

(Students read)
3. Personification

When you speak of things as though they


were persons, you are using personification.
Personification is giving human traits to objects
or ideas.

Examples:

. 1. The flowers dancing in the breeze.

2. The willow tree shook her long hair.

3. Justice is blind and, at times, deaf.

(Teacher gives further explanation of


personification)

“Did you understand class?”

“Now, let’s check your understanding of the


lesson.”
“Yes Ma’am!”

V. Abstraction

class?”

colourful picture to every minds of the reader to be

reading.”
“WHAT are those three commonly used figures
of speech class?” “We only have discussed the three commonly used
figures of speech, Ma’am.

“CAN you give me an example of simile class?” “Those are commonly used figures of speech are
simile, metaphor and personification.
“HOW about metaphor?”
(Students’ answer may vary)

“CAN you define personification?”

“Personification is the attribution of a personal


nature or human characteristics to something
VI. Application nonhuman, or the representation of an abstract
quality in human form.”
“Now, let’s see if you really understand the
lesson by answering this question. This game is
