Feeling Safe?

Can you imagine how this happened? After the earthquake last Tuesday this had happened. Earthquake passed by 3 provinces such as Cebu, Bohol and Negros. That would mean roads that are not strong enough especially the foundation will be destroyed just like this. It’s sad that many roads and buildings were attacked by earthquakes and people perish. We need to be protected however, protection came from the most high, the maker of heaven and earth. In the end, we would still be looking up and trust in God’s unfailing love.

    Ex. I am very thankful to those who gives support for my educational finances.

    3. By the other character who reveals their speech and actions what they think of a character.
    Ex. We, the youth are the future of our fatherland.

    Using Idiomatic Expressions
    (SARGON, IZZA)
    • Idiomatic Expressions- an expressions peculiar to a language. It usually has more than one meaning that is not gained from the meaning of its words taken separately.
    Example To shed crocodile tears means “ to pretend to be sad over the loss or death of something or someone.”
    Here are some various interesting activities to help the student gain mastery.

    a. Picture Talk- The literal meaning of an idiomatic expression is interpreted in picture or other non graphics. Then the expression is used in several sentences in its figurative meaning. The student gives his own sentence using the idiom.
    b. Context Clues- An idiomatic expression is used in various situations. From these the students gains the meaning.
    (AMELDA, DONNA MAE)
    c. Games- A list of idiomatic expression may be written on paper and distributed to a group.
    Example: (Group I) Their meanings can be written on other slips of paper and given to another group (Group II). Group I members take turns calling out their Idiomatic Expressions. Those of Group II look at their own meaning slips. After all expressions have been called out, Group II people look for their partners.
    d. Writing- After learning about a set of idiomatic expressions, the students can be made to write a dialog, a description, or a narration of an event using as many of the expressions as they can.
