III. LEARNING TASKS

Review: (5 minutes)

Teacher will say:


In our previous lesson, we talked about literary elements, in particular, elements of poetry. Can you give
examples of these elements?

Unlocking of difficulty:
Teacher will say: Our lesson for today has something to do with the literary element “imagery.”

When you hear the word, image what comes into your mind?

From that concept, how would you explain imagery as a literary element?

Imagery involves a lot of figurative language. So how do we know what figurative language is?

Preliminary Activity: (5 minutes)

Activity: Board work


1. Some students will be given meta cards with the following sentences:

Miguel’s room is messy. My eyes were stabbed by the flash of the neon lights.

The strong winds made the trees sway heavily. Miguel’s room is a pigsty.

The trees were dancing angrily. I was dazzled by the flash of the neon signs.

Pia has very bad eyesight. Pia is as blind as a bat.


Sound of Silence

2. They will be asked toHello


postdarkness,
each sentence on the board and classify them whether it is an example of
my old friend
I’ve come to talk with you again
figurative or literal language
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain Still remains
Figurative Language Within the sound of silence Literal
In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
‘Neath the halo of a street lamp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night And touched the sound of silence
3. Teacher will ask:
And in the naked light I saw
A. How were youTenable to classify
thousand the sentences
people, maybe more presented to you?
People talking without speaking
B. How would you differentiate
People figurative
hearing without listening from Literal Language?
People writing songs that voices never share
And no one dared Disturb the sound of silence
A. Activity: (15 minutes)
Fools”, said I, “You do not know
Silence
Teacher will present thelike a cancer grows
following the text:
Hear my words that I might teach you
Take my arms that I might reach you”
But my words, like silent raindrops fell
And echoed In the wells of silence

And the people bowed and prayed


To the neon god they made
And the sign flashed out its warning
In the words that it was forming
And the sign said, “The words of the prophets are written on the subway
walls
And tenement halls”
And whispered in the sounds of silence

Songwriters: Paul Simon


The Sound of Silence lyrics © Universal Music Publishing Group
Teacher will instruct five students to read the text one stanza at a time. Once all the stanzas are read, the
teacher will ask the class:

1. What form of literature do you classify the text we just read?


2. What do you think is the message being implied by the text?

Teacher will say:


“Let me now take you to the flower era through the text but in a different form this time.

Teacher will integrate Social Science through the pop culture known as Flower Power in 1960s and early
1970s, as well as the “cold war” present during that time.

The teacher will play the song: Sound of Silence by Simon and Garfunkel

Students will be asked to explain what the song is all about and its message based on its lyrics, and socio-
cultural context presented.

B. Analysis: (5 minutes)
1. Were you able to figure out the message of the song from the literal meaning of the lyrics? If not,
how did you interpret the figurative language expressed in the song?
2. Can you recall the different kinds of figurative language or figures of speech which are commonly
used in literary works, as part of imagery?

C. Abstraction: (15 minutes)


Teacher will say: The term figurative language covers a wide range of literary devices and techniques, a
few of which include:

 Simile
 Metaphor
 Personification
 Hyperbole

Group Activity: Go with the Flow

The students will be asked by the teacher to make a process flow (to integrate logic) that will show how
the different figures of speech can be identified.

Teacher will say:


If you are asked to define the following, based on the flow chart, how would you go about it?

A. Simile
B. Metaphor
C. Personification
D. Hyperbole

(Integration of Numeracy/Geometry)

1. Do you see the figure of speech


In this picture? Can you identify what type is it?

A. Draw an area composed of 5x4 squares


B. Based on the explanation showed on the picture,
Compute for the area of a room with 5x4 tiles that measures 50x50 cm each.
Express your answer in meters.

=(50x5 )(50x4) =(5x4)(50x50)


=250 x 200 =20x2500
=50000 cm/100 =50000/100
=500 sq. meters =500 sqm

3. Teacher will say: Let us revisit our song lyrics. Read closely and try to find figures of speech
which correspond to simile, metaphor, personification and hyperbole. List them down in ¼ sheet
of paper.
