COPY OF THE BINGO CARD

For our next activity, I have here a BINGO

card that contains examples of a recount.

What do we mean by recount

again? Yes, Dorin.

It retells past events of a
person.
Very Good! This BINGO card includes
something that you might experience. So,
when you experience the statement shown
on screen, you can just mark it using your
pen.

The first two students who can make a

pattern of a bingo (horizontal line, vertical
line, or diagonal line) will be rewarded. If you
make any of these lines, you will say 'BINGO'

And, for you to get a reward, you should

share one of his/her ticked boxes with the
class. LOTS Yes, ma’am!
Am I being understood?

(The activity will last until two students shout BINGO

and share their chosen story.)

(After the activity, the teacher will ask a few

questions.)

Congratulations on our winners! Let’s give

them a warm round of applause.

Now, how did recalling your experiences

make you feel? Did it bring back any strong
emotions or realizations? HOTS Recalling my experiences
made me feel nostalgic
Yes, Gian. and happy, especially the
fun moments.

Okay, thank you, Gian. He said that his

experiences
made him feel nostalgic and happy, even
me. It’s always fun recalling those crazy
things we did

during our childhood. How carefree we are,

and how much we changed over time.

Now, how do you think these experiences

shape your identity? HOTS

For example, before you were a taciturn but

after you joined a speech contest, you've
gained confidence in public speaking and
now become loquacious.

How about you? Yes, Jared. (Answer may vary.)

Impressive! Thank you, Jared.

Since we've started recalling or recounting

those
experiences you've experienced. Let's now

unlock your personal memories or details
about yourself.
Activity 3: Build Me Up
Purpose: This activity allows students to
actively recall and reflect on their past
experiences. By sharing their stories,
students can establish personal connections
with the topic, making it more meaningful
and relatable.

Alright, class! As you can see on the board,

we have an incomplete brain jigsaw puzzle.
Some of the puzzle pieces contain personal
questions.

Here’s how it works:

I need two students in each group. Each of
you will pick a puzzle piece randomly.

For those who got the pieces with a

question, he/she must answer the question
first before placing the piece on the board.

The goal is to complete the puzzle while

sharing meaningful stories with the class.
Analysis Yes, ma’am!
Are you ready?

Great!

(A student volunteers and picks a puzzle piece.)

Questions:
1. What is your biggest flex during your (Answer may vary.)
childhood? LOTS
- How has your childhood experience
shaped the way you think and act
today? HOTS
(Answer may vary.)
2. What is the latest news you’ve
read/heard/watched? LOTS
- What lessons can be learned from
the latest news you’ve read/heard? (Answer may vary.)
HOTS

3. If your life were turned into a movie,

what would be its title? Explain. HOTS

Thank you so much for sharing your stories

with us. Let’s give them a warm round of
applause.
As we completed the puzzle and played
BINGO earlier, what did you realize while
doing this activity?
HOTS
It helped us recall our
Yes, Jasmin. memories and reflect on
some details about
ourselves.

Precisely! This activity made you recall and

reflect on your past experiences and
remember some details about yourself.
 A Detailed 4A’s Lesson Plan in English
8
Yes, ma’am.
Does hearing your classmates' experiences
make you feel connected to them? LOTS

In what way? HOTS

I’ve realized that many of
Yes, Jaznea. us had similar experiences
which is why I feel
connected to them.
Great! Indeed, I, too, have experienced
some of those moments. Perhaps all of us
have lost an umbrella at some point and got
scolded by our mothers for it. Some of us
may also have experienced a typhoon,
where instead of using our phones, we
automatically turned them off and played
with our cousins due to the power outage.

These moments, whether big or small, are

part of our personal experiences. When we
share and retell
them, we are actually recounting past events.
This brings us to our lesson today—recount
texts.
Everybody read the presentation. (The students will read the
presentation.)

What is Recount Text?

A recount text is a type of text
that retells past events or
experiences which may either
be personal or factual.

Purpose: To inform or
entertain readers about the
events that happened in the
Abstraction past.
Now, who can explain what you have read?

Yes, Jean. Ma’am, recount text is a

text wherein the author
shares his/her past
experiences or tells
events that happened in
the past.
Very well said!

A recount text is a type of text that retells

past events or experiences. This means that
anything that has happened to us in the past
can be a subject or topic for writing a
recount text.

Recount texts serve different purposes—

they can inform readers about real events,
such as in news reports and documentaries,
or entertain through personal stories, like
diary entries.

A personal recount retells

Exactly! In a personal recount, the author

writes his/her own experiences. Ma’am, celebrated my
birthday.
Can you give me an example of a personal
recount in your BINGO card, Justine?
Broken a toy could also be

recount, ma’am.

Exactly! Thank you, Justine and Karyll.

Another example is diary entries, where we

usually write and reflect on memorable
events we have experienced, such as our
first day of school. How were you dressed on
your first day of school? How did your
mother prepare your breakfast and snacks?
How did she iron your clothes and shine your
shoes?

Here's another example of a diary entry I

personally wrote about my experience
attending my first-ever concert.

(The teacher will read and share her story about

her first-ever concert.) Memories Last a Lifetime
by Clarit, Tresh
(The teacher will present another example and My family used to visit my
make the students read it.) grandparents' farm in the
province. I had all the first-time
experiences such as: riding on
a carabao, climbing fruit trees,
swimming in the river, and
pounding pinipig rice. I could
not forget also how my mother
cooked her special bibingka or
rice cake for us. I felt that life
in the farm was fun. It made
me realize that happiness
cannot only be found at the
city but also in the countryside.

Why do you think it is an example of a

personal recount text? Ma'am because the author
shares their visit to
Yes, Jerico. their

grandparent's farm and

their first-time experiences
there.
Very Good! The author, Clarit, Tresh, shared
how she couldn't forget the first-time
 A Detailed 4A’s Lesson Plan in English
8
experiences she had at her grandparents'
farm. She recalled riding a carabao,
swimming in the river, enjoying her mother’s
special bibingka, and many more.

Also, in the end, she reflects and concludes

that happiness is not limited to the city but
can also be found in the countryside.

Earlier, I mentioned that a recount text

serves two major purposes: to inform and to
entertain.

Now, based on the examples I’ve given, what

do you think is the main purpose of a
personal recount? LOTS The purpose of a personal
recount is to entertain
Yes, John Ray. because it shares personal
experiences and emotions
in a way that engages the
reader.

That's right! A personal recount is mainly

written to entertain by sharing real-life
experiences, emotions, and reflections.

Now, let's move on to the second type of

recount text, which is Factual Recount.
Factual Recount – Retells
Everybody read the presentation. events that also happened in
real life but may not be about
the writer himself/herself.

What are your thoughts on what you just

Ma'am, in factual recount,
read? Yes, June. it is not about the
experience of the writer
but an event that has
already happened in real
life.
Very well said! A factual recount does not
focus on the writer’s personal experience
but rather on real- life events that have
already happened. It is also supported by
facts or evidence to make our write-up more
credible.

With that being said, what do you think is

the purpose of a factual recount?
The purpose of a factual
Yes, Kayla. recount is to inform
because of truthful and
verifiable information
about what happened in
the past.

Precisely! To inform is the main purpose of a

factual recount because it aims to provide
readers with accurate, objective, and
detailed information about real events.
 A Detailed 4A’s Lesson Plan in English

Here's an example of a Factual Recount. Footsteps in the Moon
Everybody read. by Clarit, Tresh
Riding in a spacecraft named
Apollo 11, Neil Armstrong and
company were determined to
reach the moon. On July 20,
1969, they successfully made
it. “One giant leap for
mankind!” the historical line
exclaimed by Neil Armstrong.
This has been a tough
challenge to an astronaut’s
mission that brought success
to his nation. Such honor
made him noteworthy.
Carrying his nation’s flag
placed on the moon’s surface
was a victory.
From the example that you have read, what
features of the text show that it is a factual
recount rather than a factual recount? HOTS

Yes, Keana.
Ma’am, the text talks
about a real event and not
the writer’s personal
experience. It also focuses
on facts, like the name of
Very Good, Keana! the spacecraft, the date,
and what Neil Armstrong
said.
The example text gave a specific detail
about Apollo 11’s mission and Niel
Armstrong’s famous word which is, “One giant
leap for mankind!” So, we can say that this is a
factual recount.

Other examples can be a survivor’s story

from a natural disaster, public figures like
how Hidilyn Diaz won the Olympic gold
medal, a factual recount about historical
figures like Dr, Jose Rizal, and witness’s
statements like the one we saw during
S.O.C.O or TV Patrol.

Now, from the BINGO card that you have,

can you give me a topic that can be written
in a factual recount?

Yes, Khin.
Interested in Astronomy,
ma’am.
Okay, very good! Another

one. Yes, Khylie.

Ma’am, the story of how
SM was built.

Can be! Thank you Khin and Khylie.

Questions so far?
None, ma’am.
Okay! We will now move on to the
 A Detailed 4A’s Lesson Plan in English
8
structure of a
Recount Text.

First, we have orientation.

Everybody read. ORIENTATION – Explain the

who, what, when, and where
of the experience in your
introduction.
Very simple. In writing a recount, it is
essential to include key details in the
orientation to help the reader understand the
context of the event.

Our write-up must answer:

 Who – Who is/are the person(s)
involved in the event?
 What – What happened in the recount
you are writing?
 When – When did this event take place?
 Where – Where did it happen?

By including these details in the recount, we

provide a clear and structured beginning to
our recount, ensuring that the reader can
easily follow the story. Yes, ma’am.

Are we clear on this?

Good to hear that!

Let's have a mini-group activity. Protecting Our Shores: A

led by the Department of
Environment and Natural
Resources (DENR). The event
aimed to reduce human
impact by removing plastic
waste and promoting proper
waste disposal.

Volunteers collected over

5,000 kilograms of trash,
mainly plastic bottles and food
wrappers. Experts stressed
the importance of reducing
plastic use, recycling, and
proper waste management.

By the end, participants

This means that we should
write a recount in order for
it to have a sequence.

Yes, very good!

Chronology means describing events in the

sequence they occurred. In a recount, we
 A Detailed 4A’s Lesson Plan in English
8
need to make sure that we tell the story step
by step, from the beginning to the end, so
that the readers can easily understand the
text.

For example, if you want to tell a story about

your trip, you should start with how you
prepared, then what you did, and finally how
it ended.
 A Detailed 4A’s Lesson Plan in English
8
With that being said, what do you think
could help us achieve that chronology in
writing a recount? By using what?

Yes, Maya.
By using transition words,
ma’am.
Very Good! We can use transition words or
devices to arrange our text in order.

Some examples are first, then, next, finally,

before, after, while, etc.

Are we clear with that?

Yes, ma’am.
Now, let's proceed with a mini-group activity
again.

10. The teacher gave us a
surprise quiz yesterday.

Okay! We have a winner! Congratulations,

Group 2! Let’s give them a round of
applause. (Answers may vary.)

Do you have questions? Or clarifications?

If none, let’s proceed with the last structure

that we must remember.

When we write a recount, we are telling a

story from a specific perspective—either our
own or someone else’s.

To do this, we use personal pronouns like I,

you, me, he, she, we, or they to make the
story clear and engaging.

For example, if I were to recount my

weekend, I would say, ‘I went to the beach
with my family. We swam in the ocean and
had a picnic. She prepared delicious snacks
for us.’

Do you have any questions?

(Answer may vary.)
Well, I have some. Before we proceed with
another activity. Let’s first have a review.

So, it’s time to put our learning into practice!

For our next activity, we’ll be doing a fun

and interactive writing exercise called
Recount Relay Writing.

This will test how well you can structure a

recount while working as a pair.

Here’s how it works:

You will work with a partner to complete a
short personal recount. I will provide the first
sentence, and you and your partner will take
turns writing one sentence at a time. Each of
you will have one minute to write before
passing the paper to your partner, who will
then continue writing for another minute.

Here's the rubric on how I will grade your

recount text.

Application

(The teacher will distribute the answer sheets.)

Do you have any questions? (Answer may vary.)

You may now start

answering.

(Every minute, the students will give the paper to

their partner who will then continue writing for
another minute.)

(A timer will be used to track time.)

(After five minutes, the students will pass their

papers to the front.)

Purpose: This activity will enhance students'

writing skills by allowing them to
collaboratively construct a coherent and
well-structured personal recount. It also
helps them practice using past tense verbs,
time connectives, and logical sequencing
while fostering teamwork and creativity.
Great job on the Recount Relay Writing!
V. EVALUATION
