
Good! I have here a Thai video, this is a story
of a deaf and mute father and his daughter,
let’s watch it altogether


How did you find the video? It is
heartwarming right?

C. PRESENTATION

The video is telling us that a father or a parent
will do anything for the sake of their children
even though he needs to sacrifice his own life.
Do you agree class?


D. DISCUSSION

Now, we will discover what Willy Loman can
sacrifice for the sake of his son, Biff. Is Willy
also ready to give his life similar with the
father in this video or he will do nothing for
his sons? Let’s find out by watching this
video summary of the play “Death of a
Salesman” by Arthur Miller.


I will play the video twice, the first time that I
will play it, just completely watch it and in the
second time, you need to take down notes
because after watching the video, you will
arrange the events of the play “Death of a
Salesman’’ by Arthur Miller based on the
video that you’ve watched. You will arrange
the events through a Caterpillar diagram. This
is an example of a Caterpillar diagram; this is
what



Yes, Ma’am!

(Students attentively watch the video)





(Students are working collaboratively) 
 you will do. Each circle contains an event in
the play and these circles will serve as the
body of the caterpillar. The first circle will be
the first event and so on.


Do you understand?


Good! Let’s watch this altogether.


(Teacher will play the video)

I will give you five (5) minutes to do the task
and once you are done, kindly post your

works on the board. The group who can post (Students posted their works on the
 board)
their work immediately on the board and they 
Yes, Ma’am!

arranged the events correctly will have a 
reward. Your five (5) minutes start now. 

(After five (5) minutes) 


(Group 1 will read aloud the first event in the
 play)

Let’s check your answers, Corpuz, please
check who arrange the events correctly. 

The play talks the last 24 hours of
Willy’s life. The first event is, please read
group 1.

The reason why Willy is prone to accidents is
that he is daydreaming and hallucinating while
driving. Seeing that
her husband can’t do the job anymore, Linda,
suggested to Willy if he could ask his boss,
Howard Wagner for a local job in New York.
Since Willy sees himself as a valuable
salesman he thinks that getting that job is a
sure thing so he will ask his boss the next day.
The same night also when Biff and Happy
decided to visit their mother. Biff just arrived
from his job as a farmhand in the West and
Happy

department store. father for him which is to be a business and
 he chose to be a farmer in the West.

The next event, please read group 2.

Linda admits to her sons that she and Willy
are suffering from financial, worse Willy
attempts to commit suicide several times. She
blames Biff the cause of Willy’s unhappiness.
Why do you think Linda blames Biff as the
reason of Willy’s loneliness?


Yes, exactly. Before the arguments arise
among his family members, Happy told to
everyone that Biff has plan to get a loan from
his former boss, Bill Oliver so that he can start
a business. When Willy heard it, he is very
overjoyed and that makes everyone go back to
sleep expecting that their dreams will be
fulfilled tomorrow wherein Willy can get an
office job in New York and Biff can have a 
WRONG!! RIGHT!!
loan to start a business. 

 
Do you think that next day, everything goes

(Group 3 will read clearly the event) 

wrong or right? 
Because Biff stole the fountain pen of

Let’s see what happened next! Group 3 kindly Bill Oliver since he has kleptomania.

read the next event.

Biff explained to Happy that he can’t get a
load from Bill Oliver. Why do you think
so?


Yes, exactly. Willy find it difficult explaining
to Willy that he can’t a loan from Bill Oliver
because he doesn’t want his father to be
disappointed. 
 (Group 4 will read audibly)

How about the fourth event? Please read, 
group 4! 
 (Group 5 will read it clearly)
 
How about the last event? Please read group
5. 



For me, Ma’am the unchanging values for
us Filipinos is that we tend to sacrifice
everything for the sake of our loved ones
and family.






I will tell her or him that so much pride
can’t help us in achieving our dreams, it
will pull us down.
 
Based on the Thai video and the play Death
of a Salesman, what do you think is the
unchanging values of the Filipinos in a

changing world?

Great answer! Yes, that is very 
common to us Filipinos. CAN AND CAN’T
 

What if you know someone in your 
Modals!!!
community that has same personality like 

Willy, what advice you can give to him or 

her? 
Ma’am we used can if something is


allowed and can’t if it is prohibited
I have here an excerpt from the play Death
of a Salesman. What are the words that
were highlighted?



Very good, and these words are called what? 

Very good, these words are called Modals
of Permission. When will we use can and

can’t in the sentence?
What is the difference between these two
based on these examples?


Very well said!! Yes, that correct. Modals of
permission expresses ability or opportunity, to
request or offer permission, and to show

possibility or impossibility. 

(Students will answer the ff. sentences) 
