    K to 12 Basic Education program for Grade 10 that will enable you to become self-

    be engaged in varied, interesting, motivating, challenging, meaningful and worthwhile

    tasks to further develop and improve your listening, speaking, viewing, vocabulary,

    literary, grammar and reading skills. These tasks are generated as communicative and

    real life-based activities anchored on the integration of literature and language skills.

    Positively, this material will help deepen your understanding on how you can enrich,

    enhance and lead a meaningful life.

    There are four modules in this learning material. Each module builds around a particular

    text for you to explore meaningfully through a variety of integrated, challenging, and

    interesting tasks.

    Module 1 : Overcoming Challenges

    Module 2 : Establishing Solidarity

    Module 3 : Reconciling with Nature

    Module 4 : Rebuilding Our Societies

    Each module consists of six lessons wherein each lesson is developed through the

    following phases.

    lesson. This includes clear directions and purpose of the lesson.

    2. Your Objectives states the expectations in line with what you should

    He was then tried at the Areiopagus,

    which was the ancient Greek court, and

    banished from his home city of Athens.

    He ed to the island of Crete, where

    he began to work at the court of King

    Minos and Queen Pasiphae, in the

    magnicent palace of Knossos.

    It is said that Daedalus was the rst

    to conceive masts and sails for ships

    for the navy of Minos, helping Crete

    become a naval power. The statues he

    carved were so exquisite, they looked

    as if they were alive. It is said that they

    would have escaped were it not for the

    chain that bound them to the palace

    wall.

    Daedelus also constructed awooden cow for the queen to hide and

    When the dreadful Minotaur was

    born, Daedalus built the Labyrinth to

    contain the monstrous half-man, half-

    bull. For years Minos demanded a

    tribute of youths from Athens to feed

    the creature as punishment for theaccidental killing of his son while he

    was visiting Athens.

    Eventually, the Athenian hero

    Theseus came to Crete to attempt to

    slay the Minotaur. Princess Ariadne,

    daughter of king Minos and queen

    Pasiphae, fell in love with Theseus and

    asked Daedalus to help him.

    Daedalus gave her a axen thread

    for Theseus to tie to the door of the

    Labyrinth as he entered, and by which

    he could nd his way out after killing

    the monster, simply by following the

    thread back. Theseus succeeded, and

    escaped Crete with Ariadne.

    B. From the identied pronouns

    above, ask them to pick at least

    ve (5) of them and paraphrase the

    statement by making the pronouns

    reexive.

    ask the students to construct their

    own sentences by converting the

    assigned pronouns into reexive

    pronouns.

    Ask the students if they are ready to

    proceed to the next phase of the lesson

    as part of assessment as learning.

    Your Discovery Tasks

    Pedagogy:

    Remember that the

    Your main target in this

    phase is to provide them

    the understanding of

    content as applied to a

    variety of context.

    Here is where the teacher

    associates the theme

    to the learners personal

    experience and it should

    therefore, provide them

    the opportunity to answer

    the essential questions

    raised at the beginning of

    the lesson.

    Assessment:

    All the activities in this

    phase are formative in

    nature and must not be

    recorded but graded as

    bases for instructional

    decision whether to

    proceed to the next activity

    or facilitate another activity

    depending on the needs of

    your learners.

    Refer the students back

    to the tentative answers

    they have written on their

    notebooks to validate

    whether their tentative

    answers are correct

    or not. This process is

    important in validating,

    rethinking and revising

    their understanding.

    At the end of this phase,just before doing the nal

    task, the teacher may

    provide a summative

    test (pen-and-paper or

    authentic task) to sum up

    Processing the activity using the

    following questions:

    1. What do the similarities of your

    personal challenges in life and

    those of Daedalus and Icarus

    tell? What new discoveries did

    you nd?

    2. How do you compare the

    similarities of your personal

    challenges in life and these of

    Daedalus and Icarus?

    Task 17. In your Own Words

    whole sheet of paper.

    Write an essay about a safety

    rule that you think is important

    to people but often ignored by

    them because it ruins their fun.

    Try to convince your readers

    that they really should obey this

    safety rule.

    Process the activity. Highlight thevalue of safety rules. Integrate risk

    and disaster reduction management

    concepts.

    Task 18. Imprint in Print

    Allow the students to look in todays

    paper for a story about an engineering

    solution to a problem. This could be

    anything from coordinating trafc lights

    to avoiding local ooding problems to

    developing a new type of space craft.This is integrated in Science and

    Technology by asking the students to

    create a chart showing the problem,

    Final Task

    Pedagogy:

    Final task is the part of the

    module that addresses the

    performance standard.

    Since this is the nal taskof Lesson 1, the task is

    referred to as enabling

    task or enabling activity.

    This enabling activity

    forms a scaffold to the

    succeeding activities to

    Emphasize to the learners that they have

    been informed about their nal task for

    this quarter a short but persuasive text.

    A concise Oral Report on the Causes/

    Effects of Cyber Bullying, would help

    you prepare for such performance at

    the end of the quarter

    Present the rubrics. Ask them if there

    are needed clarications.

    main product/

    performance at

    the end of each

    module;

    includes tasks

    that are essential

    for learnersdevelopment;

    is based on real

    life situations (if the

    teacher wishes to

    do modications or

    and the rubrics.

    Assessment:

    All the activities

    in this phase

    are diagnostic in

    nature. Scores

    must be recorded

    to help the

    Your Text

    In this part of the module,

    the teachers must be able

    to help the students:

    make sense

    of information,

    develop, reect,

    rethink, validate,

    and revise

    understandings of

    the lesson;

    check for

    Assessment:

    All the activities

    in this phase

    are formative in

    nature. Scores

    must be recorded

    for instructional

    decision not tograde the students

    since teachers

    have to give inputs

    in this phase.

    Refer the students

    back to the

    tentative answers

    they have written

    on their notebooks

    for them to validate

    whether their

    tentative answers

    are correct or

    not. This process

    is important

    in validating,

    rethinking and

    revising their

    understanding.

    It is the manner in which

    information is passed from one

    generation to the next in the

    absence of writing or a recording

    medium. In the days before near-universal literacy, bards would

    sing or chant their peoples

    stories.

    They employed various

    (mnemonic) techniques to aid in

    their own memory and to help

    their listeners keep track of the

    story. This oral tradition was a

    way to keep the history or culture

    of the people alive, and since it

    was a form of story-telling, it wasa popular entertainment.

    As they read the Myth, ask

    them to look for the heroic

    qualities of Perseus and the

    personal challenges he has

    to overcome to acquire the

    gorgons head.

    Let them accomplish the Story

    Anticipation Guide in the LM.

    The teacher must also emphasize

    the following:

    1. Before reading, mark

    whether the students

    agree or disagree with the

    statement.

    2. After reading, ll in the

    column with the page

    number where they

    found their answer in the

    statement.

    Then ask the following questions

    for processing:

    Where you correct? If not, what

    did you learn?

    Before reading the text, ask them

    to reect on the question, How do

    I build the best defenses against

    challenges to acquire the best

    quality of life possible for me?

    Provide the learners with a copy

    of the texts. Allow them to write

    the questions and answers

    on the breakers (questions

    inside the boxes) to enrich their

    understanding of the text.

    Task 9. Dissecting the Text

    Test the students comprehension

    of the text by asking the following

    questions:

    1. What is dreadful oracle

    that is delivered to King

    Acrisius?

    2. What adventure does

    Polydectes suggest thatPerseus undertake?

    3. List three perilous

    encounters Perseus

    experiences during his

    adventure.

    4. Explain how the oracle

    given to King Acrisius is

    fullled.

    5. What is Polydectess true

    motive in sending Perseus

    to kill Medusa?

    6. Medusa is beheaded by

    Perseus, yet her head

    continues to have power.

    in the paragraph.

    That was the last Perseus ever

    used the horrible head. (1-2) He

    gave it most willingly to Athene,

    who kept it ever after.

    (3) Now that the Polydectes was

    dead, Danae yearned to go home

    again and be reconciled to herfather. (4) So perseus made the

    sherman Dictys King of island

    and sailed with his mother and

    Andromeda to Greece.

    (5-6) But it happened that when

    they came to Argos, King Acrisius

    was away from home. (7) Games

    were being held in Larissa,

    and Perseus, hearing of them,

    decided to go there and take

    part. (8) And there at the game it

    was that the oracle with Acrisius

    had received at Delphi was

    strangely fullled. (9) For when
