(Rhea leads the prayer)

God morning class.

Good morning ma'am Taberna.
Before you take your seats, kindly pick the
pieces of paper on the floor and arrange your
chairs properly.

Who are absents this morning?

None ma’am.
So everybody is present. Very Good class.

Since we are facing pandemic right now, make

sure to observe the COVID safety protocols. The students will answer.
What are those?

Alright, very good!

A. Reviewing the Previous Lesson or

Presenting the new lesson.

So, before we discuss our lesson for today, let

us have a short recap of yesterday’s lesson.

What was our lesson yesterday? Yes Noe? Ma’am, it was about concept,
characteristics and forms of Stratification
System.

Very Good, it was about concept, characteristics

and forms of Stratification System.
Last time we have discussed the social
stratification. Again, how many social classes Ma’am we have three social classes.
do we have?

Correct! We have three social classes. What are The upper class, middle class and lower
those? class.

Because of this division among resources bring

about issues among the classes which may lead
to bigger problems. Some groups in our society
enjoy greater status, power, and wealth than
other group which resulted from social
stratification

So, Have you ever wondered why people don’t

have the same status in life when they were
born? Why there are rich and poor people in the
society? Have you ever thought this idea
wondering what if you were born rich? On the
other hand, what if you were born poor? What if
the society is some kind of Utopia where
everything is just perfect and equal?

Before we proceed to our next topic. Let us

Ma’am, ears.
have an activity. This activity will test your
auditory skills or your hearing ability. What part
of your body is functioning when we say
auditory?

Very good. Your ears. Do you know class that

you never stop hearing even in your sleep.
Thankfully, the human brains learn to ignore the
sounds so that you can sleep soundly.

Now, I will play a song and I will give you the

copy of it. You have to listen carefully to the
song since in your copy, there are missing
words that you need to fill in. Is that clear?
The student will listen to a song
So the title of the song is “The world isn’t fair”
by Randy Newman”. Are you ready?

B. Establishing a Purpose for the Lesson

Alright, how do you find the song? Wonderful

right? The song is very different from the songs
that we have right now, am I right? It is full of
message.
Answers:
Now let us answer your activity and the same 1. exploitation- treating someone unfairly
time check your vocabulary. 2. discrimination-prejudicial treatment
3. stumble-almost fall
4. arrayed- to dress in splendid attire
5. froggish-aggressive
6.Nary- not a single/ never
 The student will answer

Let’s play again the song and listen carefully

and analyze the message of the song.
The student will answer
So what is the message of the song?

Very good. It is like we are reminiscing the life

of Karl Marx. Do you know who Karl Marx is?

Very Good. Karl Marx is the founder of Marxist The student will answer
Theory. A philosopher and also known as an
activist or the one who fought against social
discrimination during their time.
The student will answer
Do you agree with the songwriter that the world
is not fair?
The student will answer
I like the part of the song where it says “Oh
Karl the world isn't fair It isn't and never will
be” do you agree with this?

Another is, “Where the rich just get richer and

the poor you don't ever have to see”

In reality, it is really happening right? But it

does not happen all the time.

Yet, whatever social class one belongs to in a The student will answer
society, it is hope that one may find reasons to
still be grateful, and live a life that is full of
opportunities.

Alright, what do you think is our topic today.

Correct! Our lesson for today is about

“Government programs and suggestions in
addressing social inequality”.

So for this topic, here are the objectives that we

need to meet at the end of the lesson.

a. discuss social inequality and the problems it

may create.
b. explain government programs and initiative
in addressing social inequalities;
c. suggest ways that could address social
inequalities that you can identify within the
context. The student will answer

Please listen carefully to our discussion.

D. Discussing new concept and practicing

skill #1
Again, what is inequality? Yes Anna?
Correct! Inequality, in the context of social
sciences, is the apparent disparity of the
distribution of wealth and an uneven
dissemination of opportunity in the realm of
politics, job opportunities, and in other areas of
life.
The student will answer
What can you see about this picture?

Very good, that shows how inequality happens.

It may portray powerful versus powerless.

Now let’s discuss “THE GOVERNMENT AND

SOCIAL INEQUALITIES”
The prevalence of social inequality in any
society cannot be dismissed. In fact, President
Obama (2013) said inequality is “the defining
challenge of our time.” It has been part of us
and is ever growing and expanding as time goes
by.

As Lee and Rawls (2010) assert it, it is more

than just a case of geographic difference. While
persons from economically advantaged
backgrounds have always gone to college at Minority means any small group in
higher rates than their less-privileged peers, society that is different from the rest
these gaps have expanded since the 1980s. because of their race, religion, or
political beliefs, or a person who belongs
The government, having identified these to such a group
inequalities, tries to formulate viable projects
and initiatives to support research on programs,
policies, and practices that reduce inequality in
different sectors of the society.

Do you know what minority means? It is the process of improving the terms
for individuals and groups to take part in
society.

The cry of the minority roots from the desire to

achieve social inclusion.

So what is social inclusion? Any idea?

Meaning, the minority wants to be part of our

society regardless of their differences.

So here are the government initiated programs

to help alleviate social inequalities to the
country.
Despite these, although people recognize that no
single program or project could actually lead to Yes ma’am.
major changes, the government should still
assure that the measures it is taking are toward

that work to reduce prevailing inequality in the
country.

E. Discussing the new concept practicing new

skill 2.

Do you understand our topic?

Very good, any questions or clarifications Yes ma’am.

regarding our topic?

Alright, now let us have an activity. This is

activity is called “ If I were a lawmaker” . So
here is the instruction.

I will group you into two groups. Someone will

pretend to be a lawmaker. Identify the social
inequality and suggest ways on how to address
it and after 5 minutes you will present it in
front. Is that clear?

You will be graded according to this rubrics.

“The COVID-19 pandemic has affected almost

all aspects of human life. In the early period of
the pandemic in the Philippines, there were Each group will present their output.

influential people have immediate and instant

lawmaker, what can be done to avoid social
inequality in this scenario?”

Alright, your time starts now.

Time’s up! Now let us hear your output in this
activity.

Wow, I was amazed on how you think of a

possible solution to this scenario to address the
social inequality. Very good.
.
So do you have questions or clarifications for
our topic this day?

F. Developing Mastery

So let us see if you really understand our topic

by completing this phrase into sentences.

“ Today I have learned that social inequality

means___________________________and the
government iniated programs
are_________________________________.”

G. Finding Practical applications of concept

and skills in daily living.

So remember class, Addressing social

inequality was not the role of the government at
all. Other people and organizations may take
initiative to come together to push for the
advancement of their common interests by
means of collective actions.

Social inequality remains a problem and should

be everybody’s concern. As what Nelson
Mandela of South Africa said and I quoted; “As
long as poverty, injustice and gross inequality
persist in our world none of us can truly rest.”

So make your move and do you share.

H. Making Generalization and Abstraction

about the lesson.

The best description of what social inequality is

the uneven distribution of wealth in our country,
where few rich people had more, and the less
fortunate people have less in life.

We often structure society by the way we divide

people through different social classes. Labeling
the society as the upper class, middle class and
the lower or working class. These classes were
often made on the basis of their jobs and income.
One thing that we know is that as they go up in a
social ladder, they often have better access to
education, healthcare, and other services such as
housing, electricity, technology, clean water, and
good nutrition.

But of course again, whatever social class you

belong to in a society, It is hope that you find
reason to live a life that is full of opportunities.
