Learning Activities
A. Setting the Stage
Ask:
Who among you have listened to nursery rhymes when you were younger?
Lets find out whether you can still recall some of them. I will play a rhyme
and raise your right hand if you know the title of the song.
These rhymes are pleasant to hear because they have figures of speech or
we sometimes call it figurative language.
B. Explaining to Students What To Do
Today we are going to learn about figures of speech.
This is important to know because we need to deeply understand what we
are reading, listening or watching.
We can use this skill when we read poems and listen to songs that uses
figurative language.
We will know that we have learned this when you can already identify
figures of speech such as simile and metaphor on your own.
C. Teaching/Modeling
Show a video clip and model how the figure of speech is used in the video.
Show a poem in the DLP and model how to use figures of speech such as
simile and metaphor found in it.
Elicit informal input from the kids and keep them actively engaged like
asking questions.
D. Guided Practice
The teacher will divide the class into three groups. Each group will be
assigned to different corners of the room. Posted in corners 1 and 2 are graphic
organizers with two sets of pictures and incomplete sentences. Have them
complete the sentences and identify what figure of speech was used in each
sentence by labelling the blank boxes. In corner 3, the pupils should place the
sentences under the correct heading to complete the graphic organizers. After

completing the activity, the pupils will move to the next corner to reflect on the
work of their classmates until they were able to return to their designated corner.
