Health is the absolute wealth of all people. It helps us perform

our tasks every day. It makes us happy and enjoy life
opportunities. Health gives us more chances of getting good
paying jobs to support our family. It even allows us to travel and
explore other places. Being healthy does not only mean,
physically but also emotionally and mentally. We must value our
health, by maintaining a balanced and healthy diet, proper
exercise and discipline. Because just like wealth, health needs to
be treasured.

5. Discussions through Text

Use of graphic organizers to show understanding of texts (story sequence organizers).
Understanding a text, or a paragraph can be a difficult task. However, using tools like charts
and other visual representation to organize the details or information can make this task just a piece of
cake. One effective tool to sequence and organize series of events and details is the use of Graphic
Organizers.
 Graphic Organizers are visual charts and tools used to represent and organize a student’s
knowledge or ideas. Graphic organizers are often used as part of the writing process to help students
map out ideas, plots, character details and settings before beginning to write. As part of the reading
process, graphic organizers can help students comprehend what they are reading or to make
comparison. Graphic Organizers can be used to sequence events, analyze cause and effect, compare
and contrast and develop concepts in detail.

Some common Graphic Organizers are:

Concept Map is a general organizer that shows a central idea with its corresponding
characteristics. Concept maps can take many different shapes and can be used to show any type of
relationship that can be labeled. Maps are excellent for brainstorming, activating prior knowledge, or
generating synonyms. Maps can be used to show hierarchical relationships with the most important
concepts placed at the top.

Flow Diagram or Sequence Chart shows a series of steps or events in the order in which they
take place. Any concept that has a distinct order can be displayed in this type of organizer. It is an
excellent tool for teaching students the steps necessary to reach a final point.

Compare/Contrast or Venn Diagram is used to identify the similarities and differences

between two or more concepts. The most commonly used organizer, this instructional tool is found in
textbooks, on standardized tests, and in teacher resource materials.
 Cause-and-Effect Diagram highlights the direct relationship between different events or
concepts. This tool is one of the most beneficial organizers because of its many applications in all
subject areas. For example, this diagram might be used to analyze characters and events in reading,
to discuss major events in social studies, or to study the impact of a science experiment.

Main Idea and Details Chart shows the hierarchical relationship between major concepts and
their subordinate elements. This organizer is extremely beneficial in helping students distinguish
central ideas and their corresponding details from less important information. When using the type of
graphic organizer, clearly label the main idea and the details as such. Use a different shape or area for
the main idea and the details.

Questions:
1. Can you name the graphic organizers presented?
2. How can you describe:
a. concept map
b. sequence chart
c. Venn diagram
d. Cause – and -Effect diagram
e. Main Idea and Details chart
6. Setting of Standards for Group Activity
G – good learners will listen to the teacher’s instruction
R- reaching out for help
A – ask if there’s misunderstanding
P – participates actively
H – help the group if she/he knows the topic very well
I – inspires other to commit actively in participation
C - confidently answers the questions very well.

At school, there are a lot of other children.
When a lot of children are together, they
