Quarter 2
Module 22: Conduct a Mini-
survey on Filipino
Relationships (family,
school, and community)
The social relationship
needs interaction among
individuals, which involves
influence. Individual’s
influences have an effect on
your behavior which may
help or hinder you from
fulfilling your social roles.
Moreover, it is inevitable that someone may agree or disagree
with you because there is no perfect world that everything goes
well with you, not everybody says “yes” and makes a nod with
your thoughts, opinions, and values--which means
disagreements can be pretty common, especially in the society
where you live in.
Activity 1
Paste your photo on the picture
frame below. Make a survey on
how other people perceive you or
see you. Your respondents are
your family, schoolmates, church
mates, and your friends
Social relationship
It is very common to all individuals. Social
relationships refer to the connections that exist
between people who have recurring interactions that
are perceived by the participants to have personal
meaning.
Relationship is the way in which two or more
people or groups regard and behave toward each
other. There are many different types of
relationships. In this topic, we will focus on three
types of relationships: Family relationships,
friendships, acquaintanceships and
community relationships.
 Family
Relationships
Or relatives are people we
are connected to through
some form of kinships, such
as parents, brothers and
sisters, grandparents, aunts
and uncles or step-parents.
Friends
Friends are people we are not
related to but choose to
interact with. A friend is a
person whom one knows and
with whom one has a bond of
mutual affection, typically
exclusive of sexual or family
relations.
Acquaintances
Are people you may encounter
oftentimes, but are not friends
or relatives. For instance, they
may be a neighbor who lives
in your road, a work colleague
or someone you have seen a
few times at a social event but
do not yet know well. A
 Community
relations
Simply describe a company's
interactions with the community
in which it resides. Cambridge
dictionary defines it as the
