“And now, I want you to answer this question.”
“What is the title of our national anthem, (Students’ answer may vary)
Andrew?”

“Very good!”
“How about the composer of our national anthem?
Do you know who he is?”

Alright! The composer of the Philippine National

Anthem is Jose Palma.
(students read)
(Teacher presents the author’s back ground)

Can you read the first paragraph, Jamie?

He was a Filipino poet and soldier. He wrote

Filipinas, a patriotic poem in Spanish. It was
published for the first time in the issue of the first
Anniversary of La Independencia on 3 September
1899. The poem fit the instrumental tune Marcha
Nacional Filipina by Julián Felipe, and it has since
been the basis for every translation of the
Philippine National Anthem.

If you will know, the poem he wrote became the

lyrics of the national anthem. During the American
period, the poem was translated into English. This
is the translation that appears in this lesson.

(Teacher presents the poem)

“Now, read the poem presented on the board for 2

minutes. Read it silently and analyze the poem as
you
read it.”
1. Activity
“FILIPINAS”
Jose Palma
(tr. Camilo Osias and M.A. Lane) (Students read the poem silently)
Reference: English Arts 1 page 40

2. Analysis (Students listen)

“Did you understand the poem, class?”
“Now, answer these questions.”

“Why is the Philippines called a land of the

morning and a child of the returning sun, Jhenny I think land of the morning and the
Rose?” child of the sun returning would mean
a land where the sun shines almost always.

“Can you tell why the Philippines is called a
cradle of noble heroes, Jeffrey?”
“Alright! Are those examples of literal or
figurative language, Charity?”
“Very Good!”
A cradle is a baby’s bed. Therefore, a
land that is a cradle of noble heroes
would mean a places where many
heroes have been born.
Those are examples of figurative
language, teacher.

“The expressions in the poem you have just read

are not to be taken literally. They are used to make
the expressions more vivid and the reader is (Students’ answer may vary)
expected to apply the imaginative meaning rather
than the literal meaning.” “These expressions are Those are examples of figurative
called figures of speech. “Have you heard this language, teacher.
before, class? “Okay, figures of speech do not
make sense if applied literally but they paint vivid
word pictures when their imaginative meanings are
applied.” “There are many types of figures of
speech. But today, we will discuss only the three
commonly used figures of speech. These are the
simile, metaphor and personification.”

“Which among of these three types of figures of (Students’ answer may vary)
speech are you familiar with, class?”

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

read the meaning of simile presented on the
board,
Aliah?
1. SIMILE
A simile is a comparison of two unrelated objects (Aliah read the meaning of simile)
with the use of as or like. Sometimes you make
comparisons. You say as rough as a tree bark, like
the heat of the sun, like the smoothness of a rose
petal, or as clear as crystal. When you say that the
explanation is as clear as crystal or the baby’s skin
is like a rose petal, you are making a comparison
between two unrelated objects whose only
similarity is in the clearness (of crystal) or the
smoothness (of the baby’s skin and that of a rose
petal). These comparisons are called similes.

“Everybody, please read the given examples of

simile.”
Examples: (Students read)
The metal twisted like a ribbon.
She is as sweet as candy.
He like a flagpole. (tall and thin)

Note: Using “like” or “as” doesn’t make a simile.

A comparison must be made.
Not a Simile: I like pizza.
Simile: The moon is like a pizza.
“Everybody, let us now read what metaphor is.”

2. METAPHOR
A metaphor is a comparison of two unrelated (students read)
objects without the use of as or like.
Some comparisons can be made without using as
or like. When you say the drumming of raindrops
on the
roof, you are comparing the sound of raindrops
falling
on the roof to the sound of a drum.
Examples:
All the world is a stage.
Men are dogs.
She has a stone heart.

“Now, read the meaning and examples of

personification, Geian.”
3. PERSONIFICATION
When you speak of things as though they were (Geian reads the meaning and
persons, you are using personification. examples of personification)
Personification is giving human traits to objects or
ideas.
Examples:
The sunlight danced.
The smiling sun.
The flowers dancing in the breeze.

(Teacher gives further explanation of

personification)
“Did you understand, class?”
“Now, let’s check your understanding of the Yes, teacher!
lesson.”

3. Abstraction
“WHAT do you mean by figure of speech,
Crisela?”
“HOW many figures of speech we have just
discussed, Ricalyn?”
“WHAT are those three commonly used figures of
speech, Vincent?”
“CAN you define simile, Rico?”
“CAN you give me an example of simile, Tom?”
“HOW about metaphor, Trisha?”
“CAN you now give me an example of metaphor,
“A figure of speech is a word or
phrase that has a meaning other than
the literal meaning.”
“We only have discussed the three
commonly used figures of speech, teacher.
“Those three commonly used figures
of speech are simile, metaphor and
personification.”
“A simile is a comparison of two
unrelated objects with the use of as or
like.”
(Tom gives an example of simile)
“A metaphor is a comparison of two
unrelated objects without the use of as
or like.”

(David gives an example of metaphor)

David?” “Personification is the attribution of a
personal nature or human
“HOW about personification, Edwin?” characteristics to something
nonhuman, or the representation of an
abstract quality in human form.”

“CAN you now give me an example of (Mikhaela gives an example of

personification, Mikhaela?” personification)

“Very good!”

4. APPLICATION

by playing this very simple yet amazing game. This
game is called “Figurative Language Game”. Let’s
read first the game mechanics before we play.”
