• Greetings

"Good morning, class! Good morning, Ma’am!

How are you all today?"
We’re doing well and happy
today!

Wow, that’s wonderful I love seeing

those bright smiles. I hope you’re all
ready for another meaningful
learning session today.

• Classroom Management Class before we begin, let’s make

sure our classroom is neat and
organized. Kindly pick up any pieces
of trash, fix your chairs, and arrange
your things properly.
(Students do as instructed.)
Also, let’s remember our classroom
rules. Can someone remind us of
three golden rules we follow during
discussions?

Yes, Jhesly
(Student reads the following
health protocols.)

• Checking of Attendance Class secretary Hanna, kindly tell us

who is/are absent from the class
today. Good morning, Ma’am, I am
glad to inform you that all my
classmates are present today.
Wow, thank you, Ms. Secretary!
It’s great to hear that everyone is
here today.
• Review of the Previous Before we dive into our new lesson,
Lesson let’s have a quick review! Who can
recall what we discussed last time?

Yes, Jelane. Ma’am, our topic last meeting

was all about autobiography.
Good remembering, Jelane!
Now, can someone define what a
autobiography is?

Yes, Azelle. An autobiography is a story of

a person's life written by
themselves.

Excellent, Azelle! An autobiography

is written in the first person, which
means the writer shares their own
experiences, thoughts, and feelings.

Since you remember it well, I’m

sure today’s lesson will be easy for
you.

For your assignment, I asked you to

• Checking of Assignment answer these five questions about
autobiography, right?

Yes, ma’am!
Now, please take out your
assignment and exchange your
papers with your seatmate so we
can check each other’s work.

note of anything that stands out to
you. Pay close attention, as we will
discuss your observations
afterward. Let’s begin!

Now that you've all observed the
pictures around the classroom, let's
discuss what you've noticed. I have
a few questions for you.

What did you observe from the

pictures?

Yes, Shaira. I saw a big family gathering, a

classroom full of students,
children playing traditional
games, and different childhood
snacks.

Correct!
How about you, Erwin? The pictures show moments
from childhood that many of us
can relate to, like spending
time with family, playing with
friends, and going to school.

You got the point.

Do any of these images and objects

remind you of your own childhood?
How?

Yes, Christine, go ahead! Yes, ma’am! The family picture

reminds me of our reunions
every Christmas when we all
gather at my grandmother’s
house.

That sounds like a wonderful

memory! How about you, John
lhee? The traditional games remind
me of playing tumbang preso
and sipa outside with my
neighbors when I was
younger.
Nice!
Why do you think we remember
certain moments from our childhood
more than others?

Yes, let’s here from Jelian.

 I think we remember them
because they made us feel
something special.

That’s an insightful answer!

What else? Some memories stay with us
because they are meaningful,
like our first day of school or
the first time we made a close
friend.

Well said!
If you were to write a story about
one of your childhood memories,
which moment would you choose
and why?

Yes, May Ann. I would write about the time I

learned how to ride a bike
because it was a big
achievement for me.

That’s a great milestone! I would write about playing

What about you, Sheryn? outside with my cousins all day
because those were some of
the happiest moments of my
childhood.

Excellent insights, everyone

We all have special memories from
B. Establishing the our past, like the ones we just
purpose of the lesson talked about. But have you ever
thought about writing these
memories down? Today, we will
learn about memoirs—a type of

our lives.

To help you understand memoirs

better, we will have another activity.
This time, I will group you based on
the color of your name tags.

D. Discussing New Now that we’ve gathered some
Concepts and words and ideas related to 'memoir,'
Practicing New Skills let’s take it a step further.

To truly understand what a memoir

is, let's solve a challenge!
I have a scrambled definition of a
memoir, and your task is to piece it
together correctly. This will help us
uncover its true meaning before we
dive deeper into its key elements.

PUZZLE CHALLENGE: Piece It

Together
Stay with your group from the
previous activity (Groups 1, 2, 3, &
4). Each group will receive a set of
scrambled words/phrases that
form the definition of a memoir.
Your task is to arrange the pieces
in the correct order to reveal the
proper definition.
Once you finished, raise your hand
to signal that your group is done.
The first group to complete it
correctly gets a reward (optional).

"A memoir is a personal

narrative written in the first
person that focuses on a
significant memory or
experience in the author’s life."

Great job on completing the puzzle!

 Now that we’ve uncovered the
definition of a memoir, let’s explore
its key elements. To understand
each one better, we’ll do a matching
activity where you’ll pair each
element with its correct meaning.
Let’s see how well you can match
them!

Each group will receive a set of excerpt
cards. Each excerpt represents one of
the six key elements of a memoir. I will
flash an element. Once the element is
revealed, one member from each group
must quickly find the correct excerpt
that matches the element.
The representative will run to the board
and paste their chosen excerpt under
the correct element.
Groups earn 1 point for each correct
answer. The group with the highest
score at the end of the game wins!

Based on our discussion, can you

tell the importance of writing
memoir? Yes, Shane. I think writing a memoir is
important because it helps
people remember and reflect
on their experiences. When we
write about our past, we can
see how much we’ve grown.
Yes!. Writing a memoir is a great
way to express emotions and reflect
on personal growth. Now, let’s put
this understanding into action with
our next activity!

PERFORMANCE TASK:
You will work in groups based on
your skills to perform a short
presentation about a real-life
experience that had a meaningful
impact on you.

Each group will have 5 minutes to

prepare and 2 minutes to present
their work. All materials will be
provided. So, are you ready?

G. Making Generalizations and Now that you’ve applied what you’ve
Abstractions about the Lesson learned in our performance task,
Lesson Recap let’s take a moment to summarize
our key takeaways. What have we
discovered about memoirs today?

What is a memoir, and how is it

different from other types of writing?

Yes, Czarina. A memoir is a type of writing

that focuses on a specific,
personal experience or event
in the author’s life. It reflects
their feelings, thoughts, and
insights about that event, often
with emotional depth and vivid
details.

Why do you think writing a memoir is

important?

Yes, Angelica. Writing a memoir helps us

reflect on our experiences and
share valuable lessons with
others.
Exactly! Memoirs allow us to
 preserve memories and connect with
others through storytelling.

What are some key elements that

make a strong memoir?

Ok, let’s hear from, Allisandra?

A strong memoir includes
theme, point of view, emotional
beats, supporting stories,
personal style, and honesty.
Well said! These elements help
make memoirs engaging and
meaningful.

How will today’s lesson help you

when you write your own memoir? It helps us understand how to
organize our experiences, add
emotions, and make our
Excellent thoughts, everyone! stories relatable to readers.
Writing a memoir is a powerful way
to express ourselves and share
lessons from our lives. Keep these .
elements in mind as you create your
own memoirs.
