Emerging Pattern
___________________________________________________________________
Learning Concept
A pattern is a series of data that repeats in a recognizable way. It can be
identified in the history of the asset being evaluated or other assets with similar
characteristics. Patterns often include the study of sale volume, as well as price.
Patterns can occur within a downward or upward trend, or they can mark the beginning
of a new trend.
In Math, we all know that 10 comes after the series 2, 4, 6, and 8. An egg when
properly incubated will soon hatch. But how about in trends? Can you tell of any
emerging patterns? Let us look at an ice cream. We know people who can afford can
buy it at any time of the day. But do you have any idea what specific months in the
country their sales are doubled if not tripled? When COVID 19 (Corona Virus 2019), a
pandemic who have affected not only the Philippines but also other countries worldwide.
What goes trend after? On the internet, all news and health views were all talking about
it. Later, all things associated for human protection against the virus suddenly become a
trendy thing. Demands were relatively high which resulted to price hike.
In cellular phones, NOKIA was a trending brand before in the Philippines.
Suddenly, a new system called android comes into system. People begun to like and
love it. NOKIA did not embrace or adopted the new system and remained with what
they already have. They ought to believe that they already have established their name
in the market. Later, NOKIA went bankrupt and other cellular phone brands using
android became a money maker in the market. What do you know after android will
become a trend item or idea in the future?
In televisions (TV), if we are to compare TVs of our grandparent before than TVs
in our generation today, do you see a difference? Certainly, there is. How about in cars,
was there a change in models? Of course, yes! But what do you think was the reason
why manufacturers from time to time keeps on changing their products? They have to
do upgrading in order to satisfy the needs and wants of their customers or clients. In
one way or another we call tell that an emerging pattern in trend will most likely
be associated to what human thinks they need.
So now, do your already see what emerging patterns would become trendy
during Christmas? How about during summer?

Identifying Causes and
Consequences
_________________________________________________________________
Learning Concept
Cause and consequences have been root of all conversations common to all
families and groups. At times we are shaken by problems, we use to ask ourselves
about the cause of it. Sometimes blaming others would be most of the recourse though
that should not be case for we are all responsible of our own act. Then later we find
ourselves deciding over our existing problem without thinking of the possible
consequences that we will suffer or encounter later. To understand causes and
consequences, let us study the situations below.
CAUSE
Mary who always escaped classes
She missed many of her class, pretty

sure she got failed.
do you think was the cause?
John had feelings for her friend Gina. He
