Remediation Very good, every one!

Divide the class into 4 groups. Each

group will be assigned a specific theme
from the literature piece "Pliant Like the
Bamboo" to enact. To be presented next
meeting. You will be guided by a rubric.

Group 1 - The Mango Tree's

Stubbornness: This group will focus on
depicting the scene where the mango tree
refuses to bend to the wind's force due to
its pride and arrogance. They will
emphasize the mango tree's downfall as a
result of its inflexibility and unwillingness
to yield.

Group 2 - The Bamboo Tree's Graceful

Resilience: This group will explore the
wisdom of the bamboo tree in gracefully
bending with the wind's force instead of
resisting it. They will portray how the
bamboo tree's flexibility enables it to
withstand the wind's strongest blows and
remain standing tall.

Group 3 - The Filipino's Resilience and

Acceptance: This group will depict the
Filipino people as to the bamboo tree.
They will highlight the Filipino's
contentment, happiness, and peace
despite facing adversity, showcasing their
ability to emerge triumphant.

Group 4 - The Filipino's Pliancy and

Triumph over Adversity: This group will
illustrate the Filipino's resilience and
triumph over obstacles. They will portray
how the Filipino remains pliant like the
bamboo, never giving up despite the
hardships they face.
