1. Motivational Activity: Ask students what they know about poetry. Then introduce several
Haiku poems and through, creative discovery and think aloud techniques, solicit as many
of the elements form as possible from the student (nature, three lines, feelings, metaphor,
contrast).

2. Lesson Proper: Unlock difficult terms. Discuss the basic idea about Haiku. Talk about its
history and structure. Identify the three masters of haiku from the 17th Century, namely,
Basho Matsuo, Yosa Buson, and Kobayaski Issa. Then present to the class some haiku
poems of these masters composed the make the students more familiar with this form of
poetry.

Ask the students to comment on the elements they had already mentioned in the poetry and
to identify new ones. Then have a hand-clapping activity to represent the breaking of
words in the poem into their syllables. Students should then look at each of the haiku they
read from the three masters, checking to see if each line has the appropriate number of
syllables and discuss the words that convey feelings to the reader. Allow them to work in
small groups, concentrating on one poem and then sharing their conclusions with the whole
class.

3. Developmental Activity: Show the students several photos of the Lake Apo. Through
creative visualization, ask students close their eyes and imagine themselves alone
somewhere in the picture. Tell them to think about what they see, hear, touch, and feel.
Next, have students make a lists of colors, adjectives, verbs, nouns, and feelings that came
to mind as they imagine themselves in the picture. Encourage students to think about the
feeling they could express in a haiku, using some of the words from their lists.
Group the student in 6.
Each group should write their original haiku.
Then let them draw a picture on a piece of 1/8 illustration board
depicting the part of their poem most speak of.
Finally, students choose either to write their haiku on their painting
or copy it neatly on writing paper.
Give them 10 minutes to perform their task
Give the rubrics for assessment.
