B. Lesson Proper

Activity Teacher’s Activity Student’s

Activity
1. Presentation “Who among you here is familiar (students will
with Moralist Approach?” answer)

“Based on your own understanding

and from our activity, what do you (students will
think is Moralist Approach?” answer)

“Thank you for sharing. Here is the

definition of Moralist Approach in (students are
Literature.” listening)

Another way of analyzing a text

and determining its worth is
Moralist Criticism, which involves
examining how a text deals with
the issue at its center.

Under moralist criticism, a literary

text is expected to reinforce
traditionally held moral values.
Courage, maturity, sensitivity,
honesty, and so on are all expected
to be upheld by the text, and
literature that challenges or erodes
these values is less valued.

Moralist Criticism weighs the text

by these considerations:
 Is a practical, moral, or
ethical idea being
presented?
  How does the text play out
the given ethical principles?
 Does the work seem to
build a positive or negative
influence on its readers?

When reading a text from the

moralist lens, it helps on the text’s
core conflict and its climax. The
conflict usually puts a particular
value to the test, and the climax-
together with its impact on the
characters-will end up supporting
either the value or the idea it is in
conflict with.

“Do you now understand if what

Moralist Approach is?”
“Yes Ma’am”
