B. MAIN LESSON
1) Activity 2: Pre-Printed Content Notes (13 mins)
What is the importance of studying Rizal’s life, his writings and other heroes?

It is important to study Rizal’s life and his writings including other heroes because the contribution they give
to the country is priceless. The youth know only the little background of their lives and works and we are already
moved, what about if we dig deeper into this?
 We will learn many lessons and inspirations with their works
 The love they give for the country especially Dr. Rizal, who is the mightiest
 The principle of pen is mightier than the sword.

The wounds made by verbal weapons won’t be healed easily and creates more damage to the personality of
the tyrant Spaniards that is why Rizal is haunted by them. If all of the youth also inherit this kind of concern and
patriotism for the country, for sure we will have a nonstop cycle of dignified youths that soon will be leaders.

word indicates its frequency or importance.”To better understand this, please see example below.

HERO

Thumbs up everyone! Thank you for sharing your thoughts about a hero. It’s very interesting to know
how you described a hero according to you own perspective. Perhaps you will find it humorous when
someone says “He is going to do some research works to help me until midnight. For me – that’s a hero!”
Stay focused for this task.

“For the moments that matter”

Are you familiar with Nescafe commercial on TV? The song in the ad is entitled “BANGON.” Please
take time reading the lines as follows:
Babangon tayo, susulong tayo
Bawat araw na ito
May tapang na di susuko
Ano man ang ‘yong harapin
Walang di kakayanin

FAQs
1. Is it really important to study the life and works of Jose Rizal in college? Why?
Yes, because we can learn many lessons from Rizal’s life and we will be inspired by his works.
2. Are heroes born or made? Explain

Heroes are made, not born. Anybody can become a hero in different capacities and perspectives. So
do not undermine yourself; you are a hero to some out there. You may not be celebrated and not awarded a
silver medal, but you still remain a hero. Someone in this world is living because of your heroic action, and
again you might think you are a nobody today and tomorrow you are somebody. All the heroes like Rizal we
celebrate today were one time like you and they just rose to hero-status; so you can also make it. We are all
equally important to our family, our community, and our country.

KEY TO CORRECTIONS

Answers to Activity 3
a. What is the general message implied by the song
The commercial is an invitation for you and me to pause and reflect for a while. Life is made up of
moments and we make them memorable. Consciously or unconsciously, we do a good job that inspires
others – our family, friends, relatives, and many others. These are sources of motivations for us – kaya
tayo bumabangon. The commercial also implies the principle of purpose that corresponds to the role of
every individual for the betterment of society.
