a. ENGAGE
•Begin with a question to connect
prior knowledge and spark interest
about citizenship.
“Good day, class! Let’s start with a question:
“what does it mean to be a citizen of the “It means you belong to the
Philippines?” country.”
“Right! citizenship means belonging to a
country. Can anyone think of why being a “Because you have right and can vote?”
citizen is important?”
“Exactly! Today we will learn more about
what citizenship
means in our country.”
b. EXPLORE
•Students read a section from a book
about citizenship.
•In pairs, they discuss the types of
citizenship and list right and duties.
“Please look and read the citizenship. After
reading, discuss with your partner the two
types of citizenships mentioned and the
rights and responsibilities of citizens.”
•Student 1
“(To partner) There are natural born and
naturalized citizens.”
•Student 2
” Natural-born means born in the
Philippines or Filipino parents.”
•Student 1
“Naturalized means someone who
becomes a citizen later on”
“Right to vote, right to free speech, and
the duly to pay taxes.”
(Walking around)” Good discussion! Can
you also find some rights and
responsibilities listed?”
“Well done!”
c. EXPLAIN
•Teacher clarifies concepts and
elaborates on citizenship types,
rights, and duties.
“Let’s review what you found. Natural-born
citizens are those born in the Philippines or
to Filipino parents. Naturalized citizens are
foreigners who have been granted
citizenship. Both have rights like voting’s
and freedoms, but they also have
responsibilities.”
Teachers write on board: •Rights: vote,
run for public office, freedom of
speech.
•Responsibilities: obey laws, pay
taxes, serve in military if needed.
“Why do you think responsibilities are
important?”
“Exactly! Citizenship is both privilege and a
responsibility
“.

responsibilities apply.

who refuses to pay taxes.” •Student 2:” That’s wrong because taxes

“He still has rights but should follow the
law too.
“Good! What about rights?” “She can vote because naturalized
citizens have
that right.”

citizen
who wants to vote.”
“Correct! Citizenship rights apply to both.
e. EVALUATE

rights/responsibilities.

citizenship types with definitions and list three
right and responsibilities of a Filipino citizen.”
