“FIGURATIVE” only. Then, the teacher flashes mystery
boxes with their corresponding letter, and let the students
figure out what’s inside the box. After, figuring it out, the
group is going to choose between to keep the box or give
the box to the other group. The box can be positive or
negative, if negative the group score reduces. The first group
to ring a bell is the first group to answer. Meanwhile, if the

other group cannot answer, the other group has a chance to

B. Lesson Proper
A. Activity
With the same group, each group are going to classify the text in the
story whether it’s literal or figurative language, and write down the
figures of speech used in a sentence.
B. Analysis
The teacher asks random students from each group to answer the
following questions:
1. What are the figure of speech used in the story?
2. Can you identify some examples of figurative language in the
story?
3. How does the use of figurative language add to the overall
meaning of the story?
4. Can you identify the literal language in the story?
5. How does the literal language differ from figurative language?
C. Abstraction
The teacher presents the topic using power point presentation
discussing the following:
1. Literal language- is the direct definition of words or phrases. It
is a straightforward type of wording where the meaning and
ideas are expressed directly. This is a type of language that
provides explicit explanation and meaning.

Examples:

1. After cleaning the house, Jonathan is extremely


hungry.
2. Jonathan has a bad temper.
3. Jonathan is smart and handsome.
2. Figurative Language -is a language that is intended to create an
image or other effect in the mind of the listener or reader. The idea
goes beyond the literal meaning.
Examples:
1. After cleaning the house, Jonathan can eat a ton of chicken.
2. Jonathan explodes like a bomb.
3. Jonathan shines like a diamond.
