may write a summary
as a stand-alone
assignment or as part

Precisely! Your answer is correct. Whenever you
summarize, you must
be careful not to
copy the exact
wording of the original
source.

A good summary:

 Identifies the
writer of the
original text.
 Synthesizes the
writer’s key
ideas.
 Presents the
information
neutrally.

Very good! That’s correct! I’ve noticed

that you understand the previous

in simple ways.
Precisely! Loving your own self makes
big outcomes in life.

Very good class! I really appreciate

your being attentive in our first activity.

So, you have already an idea what is

greatness all about. Moreover, How
do we celebrate the “greatness” of the
people we know? Before we will go to
the main topic, close your eyes and
imagine that you do something good
in yourself. What did you feel? Do you
want to do best always?

two ideas are written. Bubbles are
then added between the two ideas to

between them, while further bubbles
are added on the outer extremity of
the two original ideas to capture
elements that different. What you are
going to do is you used this activity for

to expand what are your ideas about
them. Be clever and attentive while
making this activity. Are you ready to

Based in your activity, Do you think

William Shakespeare and Michael
Jordan influences other people to do
well? To achieve greatness in their
life?
In that, what do you think what is
greatness means? How can we
identify if we do something great?

(Use PPT during the discussion)

According to the bible, the clearest

view of God's greatness comes from
his actions toward creation, especially
toward his people. Creation records
his greatness and leads to our praise (
Psalm 145:6 ). Moreover, We all have
our own definitions of greatness. But,
how does the world define true
greatness?
One way is by a person’s talent and
abilities. In 2015, a 21-year-old kid
from Dallas, Jordan Spieth, won the
Masters when most of his peers were
still in college! Others define
greatness by their accomplishments.
What Steve Jobs did in building Apple
to the point that many business
experts think Apple might become the
first trillion-dollar company in
American history – that’s pretty
phenomenal. Looking back at
historical accomplishments, think
about George Washington, Abraham
Lincoln, Alexander Graham Bell,
Thomas Edison and Susan B.
(Students answer may
Anthony, to name a few. The impact
vary)
they had on American history is
monumental.
How about in our country? Our
national heroes do something great in
our history like Jose Rizal, Andres
 Bonifacio and others. In addition,
Others think greatness is really all
about power. And who’s the big
enchilada when it comes to power?
It’s the President of the Philippines.
We’re talking about the most powerful
position in all the world!
Similarly, some people define
greatness by how quickly someone
climbs the ladder of a large
corporation – who has the biggest
staff, the most prestigious title, and Greatness achieved
makes the most money. within yourself.
So, what does it really mean to be
truly great? It means to be a servant.
Really? How can you be considered
great and be a servant at the same Yes Maam/Sir!
time? Unfortunately, much of the world
has the wrong definition of what
greatness really is. The Bible tells us
that true greatness is being a servant,
and the greatest person of all time is
Jesus Christ. Being a servant is
having an attitude exemplified by
Christ, “Who, being in very nature
God, did not consider equality with
God something to be used to his own
advantage; rather, he made himself
nothing by taking the very nature of a
servant, being made in human
likeness.” (Philippians 2:6-7)

To sum up, to care and to show love is

what greatness it all about. And it
begins with serving God, because our
love for God will be expressed in our
love for others. And that, my friends, is
true greatness.

Hence, may I request 2 students to

give ideas about we’ve discussed?

I. Evaluating Oh! Situation! Be Attentive!

Learning (by group)
(10 minutes) In this activity, the students are given
different situations; however, they will
chose only 1. The students will give
reactions about the situation, action of
the persons involved in the story, how
they deal with their problems and
relate it in the topic through Situational
Analysis.

They will be graded with the

following rubric:
Organization – 5 pts
Content - 10 pts.
Delivery - 10 pts.

The different situations are the

following:

1. One by one the employees got

closer to the coffin and when they
looked inside they suddenly became
speechless. They stood over the (Students answer may
coffin, shocked and in silence, as if vary)
someone had touched the deepest
part of their soul.

There was a mirror inside the coffin:

everyone who looked inside could see
himself. There was also a sign next to
the mirror that said: “There is only one
person who is capable to set limits to
your growth: it is YOU.”

2. Once upon a time a daughter

complained to her father that her life
was miserable and that she didn’t
know how she was going to make it.
She was tired of fighting and
struggling all the time. It seemed just
as one problem was solved, another
one soon followed.
Her father, a chef, took her to the
kitchen. He filled three pots with water
and placed each on a high fire. Once
the three pots began to boil, he placed
potatoes in one pot, eggs in the
second pot, and ground coffee beans
in the third pot.
He then let them sit and boil, without
saying a word to his daughter. The
daughter, moaned and impatiently
waited, wondering what he was doing.
After twenty minutes he turned off the
burners. He took the potatoes out of
the pot and placed them in a bowl. He
pulled the boiled eggs out and placed
them in a bowl.
He then ladled the coffee out and
placed it in a cup. Turning to her he
asked. “Daughter, what do you see?”
“Potatoes, eggs, and coffee,” she
hastily replied.
“Look closer,” he said, “and touch the
potatoes.” She did and noted that they
were soft. He then asked her to take
an egg and break it. After pulling off
the shell, she observed the hard-
boiled egg. Finally, he asked her to sip
the coffee. Its rich aroma brought a
smile to her face.
“Father, what does this mean?” she
asked.
He then explained that the potatoes,
the eggs and coffee beans had each
faced the same adversity– the boiling
water.
However, each one reacted differently.
The potato went in strong, hard, and
unrelenting, but in boiling water, it
became soft and weak.
The egg was fragile, with the thin
outer shell protecting its liquid interior
until it was put in the boiling water.
Then the inside of the egg became
hard.
However, the ground coffee beans
were unique. After they were exposed
to the boiling water, they changed the
water and created something new.
“Which are you,” he asked his
daughter. “When adversity knocks on
your door, how do you respond? Are
you a potato, an egg, or a coffee
bean? “

3. Once, there was an older man, who

was broke, living in a tiny house and
owned a beat up car. He was living off
of $99 social security checks. At 65
years of age, he decide things had to
change. So he thought about what he
had to offer. His friends raved about
his chicken recipe. He decided that
this was his best shot at making a
change.
He left Kentucky and traveled to
different states to try to sell his recipe.
He told restaurant owners that he had
a mouthwatering chicken recipe. He
offered the recipe to them for free, just
asking for a small percentage on the
items sold. Sounds like a good deal,
right?
 Unfortunately, not to most of the
restaurants. He heard NO over 1000
times. Even after all of those
rejections, he didn’t give up. He
believed his chicken recipe was
something special. He got rejected
1009 times before he heard his first
yes.
With that one success Colonel
Hartland Sanders changed the way
Americans eat chicken. Kentucky
Fried Chicken, popularly known as
KFC, was born.

4. There once was a very wealthy and

curious king. This king had a huge
boulder placed in the middle of a road.
Then he hid nearby to see if anyone
would try to remove the gigantic rock
from the road.
The first people to pass by were some
of the king’s wealthiest merchants and
courtiers. Rather than moving it, they
simply walked around it. A few loudly
blamed the King for not maintaining
the roads. Not one of them tried to
move the boulder.
Finally, a peasant came along. His
arms were full of vegetables. When he
got near the boulder, rather than
simply walking around it as the others
had, the peasant put down his load
and tried to move the stone to the side
of the road. It took a lot of effort but he
finally succeeded.
The peasant gathered up his load and
was ready to go on his way when he
say a purse lying in the road where
the boulder had been. The peasant
opened the purse. The purse was
stuffed full of gold coins and a note
from the king. The king’s note said the
purse’s gold was a reward for moving
the boulder from the road.
The king showed the peasant what
many of us never understand: every
obstacle presents an opportunity to
improve our condition.
