TEACHER’S ACTIVITY STUDENT’S ACTIVITY

A. Routinary Activities

a. Prayer
Okay, class. I want to hear the voice of
Kochie to kindly lead us through the prayer. (All students will be quiet as Kochie leads the
prayer)
b. Greetings
Thank you, Kochie. Good afternoon, Grade 9
David! Good afternoon, Sir Romer!

How is your day so far? It is great, Sir.

c. Classroom Management
Okay, that is good to hear. Before anything

send it to my google mail and I will check it
later after the class. (The students will send their assignments.)

f. Recall
Great! Now, can anyone from the class
recapitulate what we have discussed in the
last meeting? Yesterday we discussed Modals.

Very good. What are the functions of Modals? Sir, Modal or modal verbs are used to show if
you believe something is certain, possible or
not. These are also used to do things like
talking about ability, asking permission, and
making requests and offers.
Excellent. It seems that everyone really
understood our lesson yesterday. We can now
proceed to our next topic, but before that, I
have here something that will surely wake up
your analytical and reflective minds. Are you
excited? Definitely, Sir.

B. Motivation

I have here lyrics of a song that has a missing

line or word. All you have to do is to fill in
the line with the missing word using the
picture as your clue.
Are we clear with the instructions, class? Yes, Sir.

Then, later on, I will be asking questions

about the activity. Okay, Sir.

Well, let us start.

C. Lesson Proper

Okay, class. What have you noticed in each

song’s lyrics? I want to hear the voice of
Darlene. Sir, all the song’s lyrics presented are having a
rhyme in the last words of each line.
Very good. All of them have rhyming at the
end of every line.

I have a question, class. Based on the song

lyrics presented earlier, what do call a literary
piece that has a rhyming at the end of each
line or stanza? Sir, I think that is called poems.

Exactly! Those lyrics are called poems.

With that, what do you think is the connection

of that literary piece to our topic for today? Sir, I think, we are going to deal with or
discuss poems.
Awesome! So, for today, we are going to
discuss a type of poem called lyric poetry.

Are you excited to learn about lyric poetry? Yes, Sir Romer!

Okay, I have here the definition of lyric

poetry. Kevin, kindly read the definition of it. Lyric Poetry consists of a poem that expresses
the thoughts and feelings of the poet. The term
lyric is now commonly referred to as the
words in a song.
Great! Basically, lyric poetry is generally
short and expresses deep personal feelings.
Lyric poems may be sung or accompanied by
music, but may not. Lyrics often have a
refrain or a line or lines that are repeated
throughout the poem.

We have four major types of lyric poetry.

Max, kindly read the four types of lyric
poetry. Lyric Poetry has four types which are Elegy,
Ode, Sonnet, and Song.
Great, Max!

The first type of lyric poetry is Elegy. Ana,

please read the definition of Elegy. Elegy is a poem, song, or other work of art
composed as a passionate expression of grief
or sorrow for someone who has died.
Awesome, Ana! An elegy is a very sad poem,
often expressing sorrow over someone who
has died. Elegies are typically written in
couplets that have a specific pattern of a
meter.
Here are some of the examples under Elegy.
Noah, kindly read the examples. “Oh, Captain! My Captain!” by Walt
Whitman
“Among the Tombs” by Robert Bridges
“You Don't Even Exist” by Usman Hanif
Thank you, Noah. All these examples express
sorrow over someone who has died.
Proceeding to the next type, we have the Ode.
Josh, please read the definition of Ode. An Ode is a type of lyric poem written in
praise of a person, animal, or object.
Very good, Josh! An ode is a lyric poem with
a complicated structure that praises a person
or marks an important event. Odes are
generally meant to be performed with music.

Here are some of the examples of an Ode.

Mark, kindly read the examples of an Ode. Ode to a Nightingale by John Keats
Ode to Aphrodite by Sappho
Ode to Spring by Thomas Gray
Great, Mark! All these examples praise a
person or mark an important event.

Do you have any questions so far, class? None, Sir!

Okay, great! Let us proceed to the third type

of lyric poetry. We have the Sonnet. Franz,
kindly read the definition of Sonnet. Sonnet is a fourteen-line poem in iambic
pentameter with a carefully patterned rhyme
scheme.
Very good, Franz! A sonnet is a fixed verse
lyric poem that has 14 lines. Sonnets are often
about a thought or feeling and have a final
line that summarizes the theme.

I have here examples of Sonnet. Kenneth,

kindly read some examples of Sonnet.
Very good, Kenneth! All these examples are
fixed verse poems that have 14 lines and are
about thoughts or feelings.
“Shall I Compare Thee to A Summer’s Day?”
by William Shakespeare
“If There Be Nothing New, But That Which
Is” by William Shakespeare
“When I Consider How My Light is Spent” by
John Milton

Okay, class. For the last type of Lyric Poetry,

we have Song. So, what is a song? Brenda,
kindly read the definition of a song. A song is a lyrical poem that is sung with or
without the playing of a musical instrument.
Very good, Brenda! Songs are short metrical
compositions intended or adapted for singing,
especially one in rhymed stanzas.
All the songs that you know and don’t are all
considered as songs.

Okay, class. Are we clear with the Lyric

Poetry and its major types? Absolutely, Sir Romer!

Okay, very good!

D. Application

Because of your active participation, let us

have an activity.

I have here an example of a Sonnet entitled

“If There Be Nothing New, But That Which
Is” by William Shakespeare. All you have to
do is get the rhyming scheme of this type of
lyric poem.

But before we proceed, does anyone from the

class have an idea about the rhyming scheme? None, Sir!

Okay! Since some of you forgot how the

rhyming scheme works, let have a quick
discussion about it. A rhyme scheme is the
pattern of sounds that repeats at the end of a
line or stanza. For example:

On the fifteenth of May, in the jungle of Nool,

In the heat of the day, in the cool of the pool,
He was splashing, enjoying the jungle's great
joys
When Horton the elephant heard a small noise

Rhyming Scheme: AABB

As you notice, the word Nool on the first line

rhymes with the word pool on the second line.
Moving on to the third line, the word joys
does not rhyme with the last word on the
second line but rhymes with the last word on
the fourth line. So, if we establish the
rhyming scheme of this stanza, we will have
the pattern AABB.

Now, how did we come up with this?

Class, in getting the rhyming scheme of a
literary piece, we have to use letters in the
alphabet starting from the letter A. The first
sound pattern must be represented by the
letter A, the second sound pattern will be
represented by the letter B, and so on. So, as
long as there are sound patterns formed, you
just keep on using the letters from the
alphabet.

Do you understand how rhyming scheme

works now? Yes, Sir!

Just to make sure everyone gets it, let us have

another example:

And, sometimes on a summer's day

To self and every mortal ill
We give the slip, we steal away,
To walk beside some sedgy rill:
The darkening years, the cares that kill,
A little while are well forgot;
When deep in broom upon the hill,
We'd rather be alive than not.

Rhyming Scheme: ABABBCBC

Okay! Now that everyone already understood

how rhyming scheme works, I want you to
figure out the rhyming scheme of this sonnet.

If there be nothing new, but that which is

Hath been before, how are our brains
beguil'd,
Which, laboring for invention, bear amiss
The second burthen of a former child!
O, that record could with a backward look,
Even of five hundred courses of the sun,
Show me your image in some antique book,
Since mind at first in character was done!
That I might see what the old world could say
To this composed wonder of your frame;
Whether we are mended, or whe'r better they,
Or whether revolution be the same.
O! sure I am, the wits of former days
To subjects worse have given admiring
praise.

Are we clear, class? Definitely, Sir!

Okay, work silently. (The students will start doing the activity)

E. Generalization

Excellent, class! I am amazed by your work. I

can really see that all of you had enjoyed the
activity and learned something about lyric
poetry and its types. Definitely, Sir!

Can anyone share the things you learned

today? Yes, Marianne.
Perfect! Very good!
Lyric Poetry consists of a poem that expresses
the thoughts and feelings of the poet. The term
lyric is now commonly referred to as the
words in a song.

How about the others? Yes, Jaimee. Lyric Poetry is usually short and song-like. In
the ancient world, lyric poems were those
which were sung to the lyre.
Excellent!

Any more realizations? How about Jennina? Lyric Poetry has four types which are Elegy,
Ode, Sonnet, and Song.
Exactly! Very well said.

Okay, class. Always remember that Lyric

poetry refers to a short poem, often with
songlike qualities, that expresses the
speaker’s personal emotions and feelings.
Historically intended to be sung and
accompany musical instrumentation, lyric
now describes a broad category of non-
narrative poetry, including elegies, odes, and
sonnets. Thank you, Sir. We will keep that in mind.
