QUARTER 2 – MODULE 1:
WRITING A CLOSE ANALYSIS AND CRITICAL INTERPRETATION
OF LITERARY TEXTS APPLYING A READING APPROACH
What did I understand?
I understand that this lesson talks about
enhancing critical thinking and improving reading,
which is to interpret literary texts by applying a
reading approach. I understood how to
comprehend the ideas of the literary works in an
easier way, though there are some difficulties when
it comes to understanding the accurate information
of the literary works. The literary works of Chechnya
by Anthony Marra, which are all about how the
people of Chechnya were affected by the war. Sonja
is an ethnic Russian and she trained in London and
returned to her homeland during the war. Akhmed
and Sonja had a deal: if she took the child, he would
help her in the hospital as her helper.
 What did I understand?
In the story, there are the characters' changing
attitudes, or what we call "dynamics," because, as
we know, war changes the personality or attitude of
oneself if something bad happens. I relate it to real
life. In addition, I understood the passage on equality
by Maya Angelou. It is metaphoric, and I just thought
about the poem because a large percentage of us
experience inequalities, especially racial
discrimination.
 What did I Realize?
I've realized that with this lesson we will be
able to improve our English comprehension and
reading. It will benefit us as students by deepening
our understanding of the things in the literary works.
Realization about the unfairness of the world and the
inequalities it throws at us. We fight against it, but
not against people who are discriminated against.
The fight through in a safe way, like what African
American Maya Angelou did, to share with others
what is really happening to the people who are
abused, discriminated against, and stepping on
their own rights while not valuing or respecting
others. It is hard, but they are strong enough to fight
for it in order to free themselves from being inside
the cage of inequalities.
What do I Want to Learn more?
I do want to learn more about how to
analyze more literary works and critique them more
comprehensively. I want to learn more and
understand a little about how I can enhance my
reading when encountering metaphors because of
the fact that you need to read it carefully in order to
understand what the message of the passage is. I
think for me, there is nothing more I want to learn
besides how to criticize the reading materials.
 How will I Improve myself/ Community/
society/country/ World based on what I have
Learned ?
I will improve myself, my community, society,
country, and world based on what I've learned in
this lesson. I will read some works to enhance my
reading in English. I will distinguish the passages
from the reading materials. I will improve myself,
and if there are any unfamiliar words, I will google
them so that I can understand the context of their
meaning. Since reading is important and analyzing
every little thing in the reading materials will help
us understand the meaning of the passage. I will
read the books that I know that will help me widen
my knowledge and mind on that subject.
 How can we make this an important and
relevant part of ourselves and society today?
The things I've learned today is this will
become part of my mind, my life, and today's
society. I will make this relevant to what I've
understood in the lesson. Since I have read so
some of those, I will read other reading materials
so that I can share them with others. Reading will
improve my comprehension and understanding of
the situation as pandemics strike all of us at once.
My knowledge of what I've learnt is that I will apply
it in real life because of the fact that experience is
the best guide for us. Like what the poem conveys,
most people will be free. With that, I will spread the
message to not look down on others. And as part
of society, I will not be biased and I will equally treat
others.
 Thank You!
