A. Developmental Activities

1. Presentation of the Topic

Today, we will have a play entitled A Raisin
in the Sun.

2. Unlocking of Difficulties
Class, as you can remember, we had a
spelling activity earlier. Those spelled
words were the difficult terms that we could
encounter in the play. So, kindly listen as I
unlock the following terms.

 Dejection- sadness and lack of

hope, especially as a result of
disappointment.
  Dialogue- the words spoken by
characters in a book, movie, or play.
 Enthusiasm- something that arouses
the interest.
 Hysteria- an emotionally unstable
state brought about by a traumatic
experience.
 Suppress- to prevent something
from happening.
3. Discussion

Okay class. Before proceeding to the actual

play, I want you to meet the cast of
characters.

Walter Lee Younger Beneatha Younger

(The protagonist, dreams (Walter’s sister)
of being wealthy)

Mama (Lena) Younger Ruth Younger

(Walter and Beneatha’s (Walter’s wife and
mother) Travis’s mother)

Travis Younger
(Walter and Ruth’s son)

Now class, I want you to divide into two

groups. Then, each group must provide an
explanation about the play. Considering that
there should be someone to report the
group’s work. No need to worry because I
will be providing everyone a copy of the
play.

Reminder: Don’t forget to look for the

play’s theme.
The group with most appropriate and
meaningful explanation will gain the extra
points. I will give you 10 minutes for the
activity.

Let the activity begin! Students do as told.

Okay class! Time’s up. Let’s now start Students’ answers may vary.
hearing each group’s work.

Very good, class! Let’s give a clap for a job

well done.

4. Application
Okay class, let’s have another activity. This
time, I will divide you into five groups. I
will give you a script from the play in order
to make a dialogue.

So here’s the script:

(Mama gives an envelope to Travis containing
money)

Mama: It ain’t much, but it’s all I got in the

world and I’m putting it in your hands. I’m
telling you to be the head of this family from
now on like you supposed to be.

Walter: (stares at the money) You trust me

like that, Mama?

Mama: I ain’t never stop trusting you. Like I

ain’t stop loving you.

(She goes out, and Walter sits looking at the

money.)

But before anything else, remember the

LBC.

L-Listen to ideas of others

B-Behave accordingly
C-Cooperate with other members

Now, I will give you 10 minutes to prepare

for your dialogue. The group with most
meaningful and creative dialogue will be
declared as winner and will enjoy the extra
points. Okay Ma’am!
Remember class, don’t forget the feelings
and emotions to be at its best. Put the script
into reality.

5. Generalization
Do you have any questions concerning our
 play today, class? Students’ answers may vary.

Okay, very good!

So, what’s the play all about?
The play is all about a poor black family
struggling to escape the hardships of life.
But still ended up with broken dreams.
The play shows us about a family that
stands together against racial and
economic adversity.

Very good!

Class, is it important to know play about A Yes Ma’am!

Raisin in the Sun?

Why is it important class? It is important to know the play in order to

have knowledge that not everything we
dreamed of will be achieved and obtained.
Sometimes, failure will come
unexpectedly.

How about the theme of the play, class? Three major themes in A Raisin In The Sun
are:

 The value and purpose of dreams

 The need to fight racial
discrimination
 The importance of family

Okay class, why should we value the theme
of the play in our daily life experiences?
Well said class!
It is important to value the theme of the
play in our daily experiences in order to
know how to deal with other people in a
good and respectable way. It also teaches
us that not everyone will achieve dreams
so easily. Just like talking or being with
someone, we should not let our differences
become a barrier to have a harmonious
relationship to one another.
