A. Setting the Stage
Ask:
 Who among you have listened to nursery rhymes when you were younger?
Let’s 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.
