D. Abstraction
“So, now let’s talk about figures of speech. Figures of speech
is a word or phrases that uses figurative language. It has
other meaning than its literal definition. In our class today,
let’s identify and define the three types of figures of speech
(simile, metaphor, personification), construct sentences using
figurative language, and show teamwork and participation in
an activity.”

Figures of Speech
1.Simile- compare two different things using like / as
Example : Ana’s smile is as bright as the sunshine
2. Metaphor- compare two different things directly without using
like/as.
Example: Dana is a walking dictionary.
3.Personification-ideas, animals, things, and other inanimate objects
are represented as having human qualities
Example: The sun is smiling at us.
.
(Process Questions) Swinging was like flying.
1. Look at the poem, which underlined phrase is an example
of simile?
Stars were diamond.
2. Which underlined phrase shows an example of
metaphor?
3. How about personification? The moon smiles upon the world.
4. Please give me sentences with figures of speech. (Students’ answers may vary.)
