a literary device that is commonly used
in novels, poetry, and other writings. Do
you have an idea now what is that
literary device?”

“I think Imagery, ma’am.”

“Indeed, it is Imagery.”

Imagery

• Imagery is a literary device that allows

writers to paint pictures in readers’
minds so they can more easily imagine a
story’s situations, characters, emotions,
and settings.

Activity 1:The es-Sense

The teacher will divide the class into
five groups. Each group will pick 1
object that the teacher will show
(perfume, o-puff, rock, picture, bell).
Each object has a corresponding
question that the students must need to
answer.

• Perfume – How would you describe the

smell of it?

• O-puff – How does it taste? A representative of each group will

pick an object.
• Rock – How would you describe the
texture of the rock?

• Picture – How would you describe the

picture?
Each group will answer their

sound of the bell?

The teacher will ask one representative

of each group to discuss their answers.

“Okay class, based on our activity, can

anyone tell me what is it about?”

“That is right!”

“So in that activity, we can now derive

the types of imagery.”

“Okay class, imagine we are in a beach,
how would you describe the place?”
• Auditory imagery

describes sounds that we hear, such
as noise, music, and even silence.

“Who among you listens to K-Pop?”

“For instance, you met someone who

haven’t listened to any K-pop songs, so
how would you describe a K-pop music in
order for you to convince that person to
listen to K-pop? “The sinking sun shimmered on the

such as spiciness, sweetness,

and also includes the textures and
sensations we experience while
