SOCIAL CLASS AND SEXUAL ORIENTATION
MS. JAROL S. BATILARAN, LPT
Instructor
Overview:
Adolescence is the dawn of sexual attraction. It happens due to the hormonal changes of puberty.
These changes involve both the body and the mind — so just thinking about someone attractive can cause
physical arousal. These new feelings can be intense, confusing, sometimes even overwhelming. Teens are
beginning to discover what it means to be attracted romantically and physically to others. And recognizing the
importance of social literacy and one's sexual orientation is part of that process.
Module Outcome:
At the end of the module, the studentsmust be able to:
Defined social literacy and sexual orientation
Enumerated social literacy practices
Created a digital storytelling in terms of social literacy
Formulated rules/guides and limitations based on sexual orientation
Lecture/Discussion
Social Literacy Definition
Social Literacy means the achievement of positive social skills, knowledge and positive human values,
that support people’s ability to behave responsibly and with a commitment to complex social processes and
their ability to successfully and deliberately mediate his or her world as a family member, employee, citizen
and student for life.
Social Literacy Practices
1. Sharing
Children between the ages of three and six are often self-centered when it comes to sharing expensive
resources. By the age of seven or eight, children are more concerned about righteousness and are more likely
to be involved.
Praise your child for sharing and show how it makes others feel. Say something like, “You have chosen
to share your meal with your sister. I bet he feels happy about that. That’s a good thing to do.
2. Cooperating
Teamwork means working together to achieve a common goal. Children who work together are
respectful when others make requests.
For children, collaboration can involve anything from building a toy tower together to playing a game
that requires everyone to participate.
Create opportunities for the whole family to work together.
3. Listening
Listening isn’t just about being quiet – it means really absorbing what someone else is saying. Listening
is also an important part of healthy communication.
Giving your child plenty of opportunities to practice listening can strengthen this ability.
4. Following Directions
Kids who struggle to follow directions are likely to experience a variety of consequences .
Don’t give a young child more than one direction at a time.
Don’t phrase your directions as a question
Don’t forget that mistakes are normal
5. Respecting Personal Space
It’s also important to note that some people don't think any of these labels describe them accurately. Some
people don't like the idea of labels at all. Other people feel comfortable with certain labels and not others. It's
up to you to decide how you want to label yourself, if at all.
Bullying
ENG 107 I Teaching and Assessment of Literature Studies Module No.4
5
Bullying is unwanted, aggressive behavior among school aged children that involves a real or perceived
power imbalance. The behavior is repeated, or has the potential to be repeated, over time. Both kids who are
bullied and who bully others may have serious, lasting problems.
In order to be considered bullying, the behavior must be aggressive and include:
An Imbalance of Power: Kids who bully use their power—such as physical strength, access to
embarrassing information, or popularity—to control or harm others. Power imbalances can change over
time and in different situations, even if they involve the same people.
Repetition: Bullying behaviors happen more than once or have the potential to happen more than
once.
Intentional:The behavior was aggressive and a deliberate attempt to hurt another person
Bullying includes actions such as making threats, spreading rumors, attacking someone physically or
verbally, and excluding someone from a group on purpose.
Types of Bullying
There are three types of bullying:
Who is at risk?

All young people are in danger of being bullied at some point during their adolescence—but there are
certain populations at greater risk. Depending on the environment, some groups—such as youth who are
perceived as lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgendered, youth with disabilities, and socially isolated youth—may
be more likely to be bullied.
