Activity (Post Reading)

A. comprehension Check-up

1. What are things being compared in the poem?

Clouds
Yes Aisel?
Magneficient!

The things being compared in the poem are

clouds.

2. In the first two lines of the poem, what are the

clouds being compared to? Silver lamb

Yes Anna?

So, in the first two lines of the poem, the clouds

being compared to the silver lamb.

3. What do you think is the characteristic of a

clouds that makes a silver lamb? Who can give the
similarities of clouds and the silver lamb? Because of its white color.

Yes, Jessica
Magnificent!

The characteristics or similarities of the clouds

are being compared to a silver lamb is because of
its color which is white.

Now let us look at the ninth line of the poem.

4. To what clouds being compared to in the 9th line

of the poem? (Pupils look attentively in the ninth line in the
poem.
Anyone, Yes Jennie?
The clouds are compared to a butterfly.
In the ninth line of the poem the clouds are being

5. Why the clouds being compared to a huge

butterfly?

Yes Kiara?
Excellent! Because of its shape.

The clouds are compared to a huge butterfly

because of its shape or form.

Very good class now give yourselves five

claps. (The pupils give themselves five claps).

Based on what we have talked lately, the

clouds are being compared into different things
and the comparison between two unlike subjects
are called figure of speech.

The two basic form of the figures of speech are

simile and metaphor.

Simile- is a direct comparison between two

things that are unlike or different. The comparison
is made clear by expression such as like or as.

(The teacher will provide a sample of simile).

1. Clouds are like silver lamb.

2. Clouds are like many dawns.

In the first line, the things that are directly

compare are the clouds and silver lamb.

And in the second line the things that are

directly compared are the clouds and many dawn.

From the two lines taken from the poem the

words use in making comparison in the word like
and this comparison of two unlike subjects with
the use of like or as is called simile.
 Next, we have the Metaphor.

Metaphor- There is a direct comparison between

two unlike things, notice that comparison is made
without the use of like or as.

(The teacher will provide an example of

metaphor).

1. Clouds are huge butterflies.

2. Clouds are the sky giants.

In the first line, the things that are indirectly

compared are the clouds and huge butterflies.

And in the second line, the two things that are

indirectly compared are clouds and sky giants.

So those lines taken from the poem are all made

without the use of like or as and those are example
of metaphor.

Always remember that in metaphor, comparison

is made without the use of like or as.

Think Aloud:

Why do we need to compare two things or object?

So, class, sometimes we compare two unlike (Varied answers).

things or object we went to compare their
similarities and differences.
