Rationale and Overview – English
Introduction
The English lessons for the Philippines Learning Camp are designed to:
1. consolidate knowledge of content that students in Grade 7 have already been taught; and
2. create enhanced conditions for students to be successful in tests of Reading.
Texts in English
Testing in English typically involves reading and comprehending single and multiple texts and
answering comprehension questions. Questions often require the reader to locate relevant
information in more than one place, both within individual texts and between multiple texts. The
questions include both literal and inferential comprehension tasks. Question types may be multiple
choice or require short written responses. Students can be required to read a substantial amount in
English in a limited time and at a pace and level of understanding commensurate with those
students for whom English is their first language.
These factors have influenced the nature and structure of the English lessons presented. In the
lessons, students engage with a range of text types and answer questions about them. Lessons
begin with a single text as each type of text is introduced, but in the fifth lesson of each week, at
least two texts are encountered, one of which students have not seen earlier in the week.
Questions have been designed at literal, inferential and applied levels, but also require students to
engage with the generic features of the texts – that is, with the types of texts to which the chosen
texts belong and conform.
• Identify the genre, purpose, intended audience and features of various viewed texts (Q1)
• Classify text types (narrative, expository, explanation, recount, persuasive) (Q4)
• Use of appropriate reading strategies for various text types (Q4)
• Make generalizations from different text types (Q4)
• Compose simple narrative texts (Q1 and Q2) and informative texts (Q3 and Q4)
• Identify features of narrative writing (Q3)
• Compose personal and factual recounts (Q3).
Often students are presented with reading texts they had never encountered before, and asked to
answer questions about them under time pressure. This has been identified as an issue for many
students. A key first step in dealing with such texts is to identify what type of text it is. This way
students know what its purpose is, how it is structured, where to look for its key information and
even what sort of language devices to expect and recognize. In other words, they read with a
1
purpose, a map, rather than merely trying to remember what they have read for later questions,
which overloads their working memory.
A significant component of the Learning Camp English lessons, then, deals with the nature,
structures and language features of Narrative, Recounts, Expository texts (including Information
Reports, Explanations and Instructional texts) and Persuasive texts explored through close readings
of specific texts. Such a focus necessarily involved the incorporation into the lessons of Learning
Competencies associated with reading, comprehending, analyzing and responding to texts. These
included for Grade 7:
2
Structure of the Learning Camp
Each week focuses on a particular type of text, with five lessons devoted to intense experience of
the chosen text types and questions about them ranging from literal to inferential to applied. The
sixth lesson in each week provides students with an opportunity to practice the knowledge and
skills covered in the week. Week 1 lessons are devoted to Narrative texts, Week 2 to Expository
texts and Week 3 to Persuasive texts. Weeks 4 and 5 revisit some Key Ideas from the earlier weeks.
3
Structure of the lessons
Each lesson is structured in the same way:
1. Component 1: A short review of knowledge and understandings based on the Learning
Competencies of the grade and on the content of the previous lessons
2. Component 2: A description of the purpose of the lesson
3. Component 3: An orientation to the language and vocabulary to be encountered in the text
for analysis in the next stage of the lesson – Language Practice
4. Component 4: The main activity of the lesson made up of:
A. The teacher reading the chosen text, with some focus on the vocabulary identified in
the Language Practice section
B. The provision of a first set of questions (usually three) on the text which move from
literal to inferential levels and that students answer on their worksheets, followed by
correction and discussion of answers
C. The provision of a second set of questions (usually three) on the text which move
from literal to inferential to application levels and that students answer on their
worksheets, followed by correction and discussion of answers.
5. Component 5: A Conclusion based on questions concerning student responses to the lesson,
including the strategies they used to answer the questions.
The questions
Lesson questions have been designed to engage students gradually in the higher-order thinking
required to successfully answer the sort of questions they will encounter in advanced reading tests.
The questions include:
• Literal questions that require students to find the answer from specific words in the text.
• Inferential questions that require students to derive the answer from implied meanings in
the text, or to draw conclusions about the information in the text, based either on several
parts of the text or on a reading of the whole text.
• Applied questions that require students to create texts of their own that respond either
critically or creatively to the information in the text.
• Evaluative questions that require students to assess the quality and credibility of
information in the text, and to reflect on content and form.
The questions, together with the vocabulary preparation provided in the Language practice
component, thus enable access to students at all levels of English commensurate with the
standards required for Grade 7. In Grade 7, the Program and the Grade Level Standards require
‘communicative competence through understanding of literature and other text types’.
Communicative competence is defined in the English K-12 Curriculum Guide (page 6) as ‘a synthesis
of knowledge of basic grammatical principles, knowledge of how language is used in social settings
to perform communicative functions, and how knowledge of utterances and communicative
functions can be combined according to the principles of discourse.’ The Lesson questions target all
aspects of this definition in providing opportunities for students to develop, consolidate and
enhance knowledge of:
4
• the ways language is used in the types of texts designed to carry out specific forms of
communication in school and society; and
• the application and combination of such knowledge in the creation of short texts to perform
communicative functions.
Teachers should feel free to allow answers from student pairs or groups and to model answers to
questions, especially in the early stages of each week, in order to ease students into the type of
thinking required at the higher levels. Modelled and guided writing should also support the
production of written responses to the applied questions, particularly when a new type of writing
task is introduced.
Conclusion
The 2023 English Learning Camp lessons have been designed to provide opportunities for teachers
and students to engage closely with texts across the range of text types mandated in the 2016 K-12
English Curriculum Guide, and to practice the knowledge and skills required to meet Grade
Standard questions at all levels.

English Notes for the Teacher
The notes below provide general guidance for teachers regarding each lesson component in the
English lesson plans. The lesson plans also include brief notes for the teacher that are specific to
each lesson.

time, the aim is for students to read fluently. Allow 5-10 minutes, depending on the
length/complexity of the text.
Components 4B and 4C include a range of literal and inferential comprehension questions.
There might be more than one question of each type to develop students higher order
thinking. Students are instructed to use various strategies to engage with the text and to
answer the questions. The questions are designed to develop applied and critical thinking to
evaluate ideas and justify their answers.
The teacher displays the questions on the board and models how to identify key words in
the questions by underlining them. E.g., Let’s look at each question carefully. What
information do we need to answer the question?
The teacher models and scaffolds the process of locating and highlighting relevant
information for answering the first question. E.g., Where can we find the answer? Is it here
in the words? Is it hidden in the text? Is it in your head?
Students demonstrate their understanding in a range of answer formats, such as written
answers (words, phrases, sentences or short paragraphs), completing tables or diagrams on
the Student Worksheet, and oral answers in class discussion. Allow 7-10 minutes for each
set of questions.
Component 5 Lesson Conclusion
Time: 5 minutes
The lesson conclusion provides an opportunity for students to reflect on their own learning.
The teacher initiates by asking students to identify which questions they found the easiest
and hardest, and the reasons why.
Alternatively, students could be asked to recall what were the key concepts and what they
learned; or respond to more open questions such as:
o What was one or two things you really enjoyed about the lesson?
o What is something you would like to learn more about in this topic?
