Question #1: What is your favorite short story? What Ma’am since I can consider myself as a
part in that story catch your attention most? bookworm, I have lots of favorite short story,

Ugly Duckling by Hans Christian Andersen.
One my favorite parts in that story, Ma’am is
when the swans told to the ugly duckling that
he is a swan too, and they accepted him like he
had never been accepted before.

That’s good, Savannah!

Let’s give Savannah 5 claps. (The students will clap)

Ugly Duckling is one of the famous short stories

written by Hans Christian Andersen. Anyway, you told
earlier that you consider yourself as a bookworm,
consequently just keep it up reading stories owing to the
fact reading contributes numerous impacts in our life.
Let’s proceed. You may now pass the ball, Savannah.

D. Discussion

The third element is the so-called Character. Girls,

those two? It is the point of greatest tension or drama,
Exactly! When we say protagonist class is it the
“kontrabida” in the story? Ma’am.
Always put to your mind that when we say
PROTAGONIST it is the MAIN CHARACTER in the
story while ANTAGONIST are those characters who
contradict to the main character or protagonist. In the
story of Ramayana, who is the Protagonist? Yes, Kurt
are you raising your hand?
That’s correct. Now, Kurt why Rama is the protagonist
in the story?
Very good, Kurt. In the story Ramayana, Rama is the
protagonist since he does the heroic acts of saving Sita
and winning the battle against Ravana. Yes, Ma’am
How about the ANTAGONIST, class. Who is the
antagonist in the story of Ramayana?
Good job, class. I guess you already understood what is
character as well as the differences of protagonist as
well as antagonist. Aren’t you?
Let’s elaborate the fourth element. This is CONFLICT. The learner will read the example.
Boys kindly read the definition.

man vs. society, man vs. supernatural. First, we have It is the ending of the story, Ma’am.
man vs. man, this is the type of conflict wherein the
characters are against to each other. To illustrate it, in
Ramayana, the author illustrates man vs. man conflict
when Rama fought against Ravana who abducted Sita.
Do you have question class?
Proceeding to the second type which is it is a particular
kind of conflict that develops within a character's mind.
Literary conflicts between men and themselves typically

The antagonist and protagonist, Ma’am.
Anyway, let’s forget about that class.
Next, we have the MAN VS. SOCIETY,
No, Ma’am
Shane kindly read the definition?
Who wants to explain what is man vs. society?
Yes, Joshua? Rama is the protagonist, Ma’am

Brilliant idea, Joshua! Let’s give him five claps. Because he saved Sita against Ravana, Ma’am.

In addition to Joshua’s respond, the external struggle

between a person's character and social norms is known
as "man versus society." The character's principles,
views, or tastes conflict with what the community
considers to be "acceptable" or "normal." Ravana is considered as the main antagonist of
the story Ramayana.
In Ramayana, the author shows man vs. society when
everyone including the band of monkeys fought against
Ravana to save Sita. Yes, Ma’am
Lastly, we have the man vs. supernatural. Girls, please All boys will read the definition.

conflict arises whenever the protagonist is set against a The conflict is the challenges encounter by the

man vs. supernatural type of conflict when Rama and
Lakshmana fought against Rakshasas or the evil
creature.
