| Lesson opening (5 min) Engagement (Provocative question & vote) |
Teacher: "Good morning! Let's start with a quick question. Which of these sentences paints a more vivid picture in your mind? Option A: 'The night was dark.' Option B: 'The night was a deep, velvet blanket, studded with diamond stars.' Please vote by raising your hand for A or B." (Takes a quick count). "Interesting! Most chose B. Why do you think that sentence is more powerful?" (Listens to 2-3 brief responses). "Exactly, it uses a special tool—a metaphor. Today, we'll unlock the toolbox writers use to make fiction come alive: similes, metaphors, and personification." | Students vote by raising hands. They listen and volunteer brief answers (e.g., "It's more descriptive," "It helps me see it"). | Descriptors: Student participates in voting and offers a simple opinion on the language difference. No points. |
