﻿   Bell Ringer: (10 min) ﻿Look at the following picture. Write 2 sentences describing the image. __Use__ __ AT LEAST __ __2 participials in your sentence.__ (Remember past and present participials? What are they? What do they end with?)



Lesson (30 min)
Define **Imagery**!
 * How do imagery and participial phrases relate?
 * Consider the participials we used to describe the picture above. Do the words appeal to the senses?
 * Lets look at and **DEFINE** some forms of figurative language:
 * simile
 * metaphor
 * Look back at the passage from [|"A Certain Slant of Light"]. Discuss examples of simile and mataphor.
 * Now, you find an example of a simile or metaphor from the same passage.
 * Share out!

Activity (15 min)

 * With your group, create 1 original simile and 1 original metaphor. On a piece of printer paper, write out your simile and illustrate. Do the same for the metaphor. (Break your table into pairs. One pair can work on the simile, and one pair can work on the metaphor.)
 * Share examples when finished.

Independent Reading (25 min)

 * As you read independently, find 3 example sentences where the author has used participial phrases, similes and metaphors. Write the sentences on a sticky note. **Circle **the participial, simile, or metaphor used.
 * Leave the sticky notes on your desk. Make sure your name is on it!!! (You might want to write in your journal about it too!)
