Activity

A.Preliminary Activities

1. Prayer

“Before we start our class let us pray first”

(One Student will lead the Prayer)

2. Greetings

“Good Morning Class!”

“Good Morning Sir!”

3. Checking attendance

“Venice, how many are absents today?”

“I’m glad to say that no one is absent today?”

4. Motivation

“Let us sing Barney’s I Love You Song.”

(Students Sing)
“Okay now class, What can you say about the
song? Does it tell us something important that we
have already forgotten to do nowadays?”
“Sir, eventhough the song is very short, but I
“How could you say so?” guess it’s full of emotions.”

“Because sir I noticed that the song has a lot to do

with our love for our family, that the real meaning
of family is all about loving each other, and
nowadays kissing and hugging our parents or
family members are not being practiced anymore.”
“That was a very good explanation John, you
know what class the song simply tells us
something that we should always consider for us
to keep our family or relationship with others
intact, sometimes showing affection/love towards
a person makes him feel that he is appreciated and
there will be feeling of belonginess and love.”

“What else have you noticed?what made

you conclude that the song is all about love?”

“Because sir, there are so many descriptive words

in the song, the most obvious one is “I LOVE
YOU.”

C. Lesson Proper

1. Presentation
Show pictures of a Mother (a) and a Cake (b)

“What do you see in pictures A and B?”

“Sir, Picture A is a picture of a Mother and

Picture B is a picture of a Cake.”
 “When was the last time you gave a gift to your
mother?” “On her last birthday.”

“Why do you think there is a cake? What do

you think is the celebration?” “It is mother’s birthday.”

“Aside from giving material gifts, how else do

you show your love for your mother?” “By kissing and hugging her.”

2. Discussion

Let us read a poem and let us find out how the

children showed their love for their mother.

Who Loves Mother Best?

“Oh happy birthday, Mama dear.”

Sang Ben, Liz and Bess with cheer
“We love you much, we love you true.”
They kissed their mother, hugged her too.

Then quickly Ben skipped out to play

And went with playmates all the day.
Then rushed home in time to see
His sister Liz aglow with glee.

For Liz held up an ice cream cone,

Enjoying it, she sat alone. Ben
grabbed the cone, and slipped away,
So Liz cried out, “For that you’ll pay!”

Like cats and dogs the two did struggle

Each making sure to win the battle.
They tried to push and then to pull,
While Mama almost lost her cool.

But little Bess with Mom she stayed,

She set the table, drinks she laid.
And helped to serve Mom’s friends and
guests
Now tell me, who loves Mother best?
After reading the poem, let us now answer these
questions:

“Why did Bess, Ben, and Liz kiss and hug their
Mother?” “Because it is their Mother’s Birthday.”

“Why was Liz aglow with glee?”

“Liz was aglow a glee because she was eating a

cone of ice cream.”
“What made Liz cry out, “For that you’ll pay?”
“Liz cried out because Ben grabbed the cone then
“Why did Mother almost lost her cool?” slipped away.”

“Who among the three children loved their
Mother best? How did he/she show it?
“What is the best way to show your love for your
parents?” Explain.
“Because Ben and Liz struggled.”
“Bess, because she helped mother to serve the
guests.”
“The best way to show my love for my parents is
by...”

3. Analysis

(Show picture of a girl eating an ice cream)

“What do you see on the picture?”

“A girl is eating a cone of ice cream.”

“What happened to Liz when she was eating

a cone of ice cream?”
“Liz was happy (aglow with glee)”
Liz was aglow with glee, answers what happens
to Liz when she eats a cone of ice cream. This is
called the effect.

Look again at the picture,

“What do you notice on Liz’s face?”
“Liz was happy (aglow with glee)”
“Why was Liz aglow with glee?”
“Because she was eating a cone of ice cream.”
Because she was eating a cone of ice cream,
answers why Liz was aglow with glee. This is
called the cause.
 And that’s what we call the Causeand-effect
relationship.

4. Generalization

“A cause and effect relationship describes

something that happens and why it happens.”

“What happens is called the effect; and why it

happens is called the cause.”

“The cause is usually introduced by the

connective because.”

6. Application

(Pantomime)

Each group will act out the following situations

from the poem.

Group1:
But little Bess with Mom she stayed,
She set the table, drinks she laid.

Group2:
For Liz held up an ice cream cone,
Enjoying it, she sat alone. Ben

Sang Ben and Liz and Bess with cheer

“We love you much, we love you true.”
They kissed their mother, hugged her too.

Group4:
Like cats and dogs the two did struggle
Each making sure to win the battle.
They tried to push and then to pull,

V. Assignment
Identifying CAUSE-AND-EFFECT RELATIONSHIP.
Read the short fable. Underline the CAUSE and Encircle the EFFECT.

A fox said to a crow with a piece of cheese between its beak, “If you can sing as
prettily as you sit, then you are the prettiest singer.”
The fox thought that once the crow starts to sing, the cheese would drop from her
beak. But the crow carefully removed the cheese from the claws on one foot and said,
“they say you are sly, but you cannot fool me”. Not giving up, the fox continued to
praise the crow. “I wish I could hear you tell about your talents but I have to go look for
food because I’m hungry”.
