    TEACHERS ACTIVITY

    STUDENTS ACTIVITY

    Good morning class!

    Good morning maam!

    (The star of the day will lead the


    prayer)

    Let us all put ourselves in the


    presence of the Lord

    Before taking your seats, pick up


    first the pieces of papers around
    you and also under your chairs
    and then throw it to the trashcan.

    (Students will pick the papers up)

    You may now take your seats.

    d. Checking of attendance

    Ill be checking now your


    attendance. Say present once
    your name is called.

    e. Recall

    Who Can recall of what we have


    discussed last meeting?
    Thank you. Thats right. Again,
    What are Cohesive Devices?

    Very good. Who can tell me the


    four Cohesive Devices?

    Very nice. Thank you for that

    (Students will now take their


    seats)

    (Student) Last time we discussed


    about Cohesive Devices.
    (Student) Cohesive Devices helps
    to guide readers through writing,
    and to link sentences, paragraphs
    and sections both forwards and
    backwards.
    (Student) The four Cohesive
    Devices are Repetition of a Key
    Term or Phrase, Synonyms,
    Pronouns and Transitional Words.
    (Student) Yes Maam.

    wonderful retention. I hope you


    will never forget that.
    2. Motivation

    I have here a conversation


    between a boy and a girl. I want
    all boys to read the statement of
    the boy and all girls to read what
    the girl had said to the boy.

    Thank you. What did you notice in


    their conversation?
    Very good. What makes you think
    that the girl rejects the love of
    the boy?

    Exactly! Then why do you think


    the girl used the lemon grass to
    express or say what she felt
    instead telling it directly?

    3. LESSON PROPER
    a. Introduction

    b. Interaction

    (Boys) Love is just a word until


    you came in and gave it a
    meaning.
    (Girls) Im so sorry but my love
    for you is just like the flower of a
    lemon grass.
    (Student) The boy expresses his
    love to the girl but the girl seems
    to reject it.
    (Student) It is because the
    phrase just like the flower of a
    lemon grass that means she
    dont love the boy since lemon
    grass has no flower at all.
    (Student) It is because the girl
    also thinks of what will the bot
    feel if she directly tell him that
    she dont love him.

    Very good. Sometimes people use


    a word or phrase that has a
    meaning something different than
    its literal meaning to avoid
    hurting other peoples feeling. We
    often use things to duplicate the
    actual words that we really mean
    to create pictures in the mind of
    the reader or listener. These
    pictures help convey the meaning
    faster and more vividly than
    words alone.

    These words or phrase are


    related to our lesson for today
    which is the Figure of Speech.
    Group yourselves into four. Lets
    have an activity which is the
    Magic Square. Select from the
    numbered statements the best
    description for each of the
    concepts. Put the number of your
    answers in the proper space in
    the Magic Square. The sum of
    the numbers will be the same
    across each row and down each
    column. Each correct answer is
    worth 1 point, and if you find the
    Magic Number you get an
    additional four points.
    After 15 mins we will check
