Okay. Now class, just like your

rules that you must follow in my
class.

Can someone describe the first

picture? Yes, Anna?

Very good Anna! My first rule is to Anna: The kid is seating properly

class?
Pupils: Yes, Teacher.
And what do you see on our last
picture, Grace?

Grace: He raised his right-hand

teacher.
Very good Grace. If ever you have
questions class or you want to

Are we clear class?

Pupils: Yes, teacher.
Good.
 b. Engage
B1. Drill
Now class I will group you into two.
What you are going to do is solve
the puzzles that will be given to
your group. Remember to do the
activity with minimal noise. You
may now go to your respective
groups.
(The pupils complied)
Group 1.

Directions: Unscramble the letters

below to reveal a quote from the
Author Victor Hugo.

“Mscui sseserpxe that wchic otnnac

eb dias.”
Answer Key:
“Music expresses that which
cannot be said.”
Group 2

Directions: Arrange the cutout

pictures.

Answer
Key:
Well done class!

Now group two, can anyone tell me

who is the man in the portrait?
Daisy?
Daisy: The man in the portrait is
Victor Hugo teacher.
Very good Daisy! This is the French
author Victor Hugo. One of his
popular creations is the Les
Misérables, the hunchback of Notre
dame and many more remarkable
literary masterpieces.

Now let’s proceed to the work of

group one. What do we have here
group 1?
Glory: we are to unscramble the
jumbled letters teacher. And now
we have: “Music expresses that
which cannot be said.”
Very good group 1! Do you have
any idea what this quote means?
Yes, Jay?
Jay: we think teacher refers to the
feelings that could only be express
through music.
Well said Jay! Indeed, music is a
tool for us to communicate our
untold feelings. Feelings that may
haven’t been or cannot be
expressed. And only be said and
communicate through music. With
this quote class, we could learn that
music is not just a simple melody,
but is a wonderful language that we
could use as well.

Now let’s give 5 claps to ourselves

for a job well done!
Pupils: (Claps 5 times)
You may now go back to your seats.
