With A Smile
Eraserheads
Lift your head, baby, don't be scared
Of the things that could go wrong along the
way
You'll get by with a smile
You can't win at everything but you can try
Baby, you don't have to worry
'Cause there ain't no need to hurry
No one ever said that there's an easy way
When they're closing all their doors
They don't want you anymore
This sounds funny but I'll say it anyway
Girl, I'll stay through the bad times
Even if I have to fetch you everyday
We'll get by with a smile
You can never be too happy in this life
'Cause in a world where everybody
Hates a happy ending story
It's a wonder love can make the world go
'round
But don't let it bring you down
And turn your face into a frown
You'll get along with a little prayer and a song
Let me hear you sing it
[Chorus 1]
Lift your head, baby, don't be scared
Of the things that could go wrong along the
way
You'll get by with a smile
You can't win at everything but you can try
[Verse 1]
Baby, you don't have to worry
'Cause there ain't no need to hurry
No one ever said that there's an easy way
When they're closing all their doors

[Chorus 2]
Girl, I'll stay through the bad times
Even if I have to fetch you everyday
We'll get by with a smile
You can never be too happy in this life

Hates a happy ending story

 WHAT IS IT

▪ Key Points:
What are spoken texts?

Spoken texts are spoken language produced by articulate sounds as opposed to written
language. Examples to these are oral stories, interviews, dialogues, monologues (e.g. a speech, a
presentation to the class or a reportorial), phone conversations, discussions, role plays, or any other
piece of spoken language.

Why do we evaluate spoken texts?

• We need to know if the speaker pronounces individual sounds clearly, understand the
functions of language, and follow the conventions of turn-taking.

• We need to know the production of the phonological features of speech that is well enough
to be understood, and understand them when we hear them.

• We need to understand that evaluating spoken text helps adopt the style and language
register required in different situations, identify the assumptions and references in what
people say and assess whether they listen effectively and critically.

How can we evaluate a spoken text?

Spoken text is being evaluated through the following criteria:
1. Fluency- the flow and efficiency with which you express your ideas, particularly when speaking.
This also involves correct pronunciation of words, phrases, and sentences.
2. Tone- the attitude shown by the speaker or writer in conveying his feelings across opinions and
thoughts on the situation which is being discussed.
The following are examples of tone:
sarcastic, pessimistic, formal, informal, threatening, joyful, casual, sad, angry, dull.
3. Cohesion – the “glue” that holds ideas together and allows them to flow smoothly. It shows how
the speaker or writer organized his ideas that is easier for the listeners or readers to understand.
The following are the linkers used to make ideas cohesive:
Adding ideas : also, in addition, as well as, another reason is,
Contrasting ideas : however, even though, although, in contrast, despite, whereas,
Showing reasons : as, since, given that,
Giving examples : for example, for instance, to illustrate this
Explaining results : consequently, for this reason, as a result

6
4. Correctness –the means of addressing the intended audience in an appropriate manner. This
also entails good grammar because correctness in grammar eliminates negative impact on the
audience and increases the credibility and effectiveness of the message. It is the notion that certain
words, word forms and syntactic structures meet the standards and conventions (that is, “the rules”)
prescribed by traditional grammarians.
For example, a letter to a principal would use much more formal language than a letter of invitation
to your friends.

Secretary’s Message on the Graduation/Moving-up Ceremonies for
School Year 2019-2020

My warmest greetings and congratulations to the graduates and

completers of the School Year 2019-2020.

Graduation and moving up ceremonies are significant occasions for the

graduates and completing learners as these marks the milestones of your
educational achievement. May these occasions inspire you to study harder
for the fulfillment of your dreams and aspirations. Life may constantly offer you
challenges, but you have to forge on.

I salute the teachers, our unsung heroes, for molding the minds of our
Filipino youth and producing among these learners the much-needed knowledge and competencies
under the K to 12 Basic Education Program. Hours may be long and the prescribed duties may be
exhausting, but shaping the future of these youth will definitely improve their lives.

To the parents, we thank you for your sacrifices in attending to the needs of your children. Your
guidance and support have helped build their confidence in themselves. You have exerted a powerful
influence on their overall development.

The theme of this year’s end-of-school rites (EOSR), “Sulong EduKalidad: Championing the
Nation’s Future” is consistent with the Department’s call for national effort towards quality basic
education.

DepEd is committed to providing you with 21st century skills through the delivery of quality,
accessible, relevant, and liberating basic education. We continuously strive to institute reforms in our
educational system to ensure that you become globally competitive and able to meet the demands of
