1. Establishing a purpose for the lesson

For Module 3- Lesson 4, We will study the comparison between simile, metaphor
and personification – apply them in a sentence.
2. Discussing new concepts

Simile
 A figure of speech comparing two unlike things that is often introduced by
like or as.
Examples:
 James runs as fast as the wind.
 You shine bright like a diamond.
Metaphor
 A figure of speech in which a word or phrase denoting one kind of object or
idea is used in place of another to suggest a likeness or analogy between
them.
Examples:
 You are the sunshine of my life.
 Cris is the black sheep of the family.
Personification
 Attribution of personal qualities; specially; representation of a thing or
abstraction as a person by the human form.
Examples:
 The leaves danced in the wind on the cold December afternoon.
 The wind whispers in my ears.

3. Developing Mastery
1. How are you going to define simile?
2. What are your bases in identifying a metaphor?
3. Give examples of personification.
B. Differentiated activity in four groups with 6-7 members, each group will have a
leader.
Group 1(Poem)- Create a poem about nature which consist of 3 stanzas with rhyme
and 16 syllabic meters use the figures of speech.
Group 2(Short Story)- Create a short story about romantic couples during the 80’s
theme of courting. Use figures of speech through verbatim.
Group 3(Song)- Create a 2 minute song which talks about the pandemic. Use figures
of speech.
Group 4(Script Writing)-Create a script which will perform by 2 or more members
of the group. Use figures of speech.

4. Finding practical application of concepts and skills in daily living

How are you going to apply what you’ve learned in your daily life?

5. Making generalization and Abstraction about the lesson

How can the figures of speech guide you to a deeper understanding and
appreciation not just yourself but the others?
 C. Evaluating learning
Direction: Recite the definition of simile, metaphor, and personification. Give at
least 2 examples each.

V. Additional Activities for Application or Remidiation

Search online for a sample poem. Read and analyze then look for the lines that the
author uses figures of speech.
