USE OF LISTENING STRATEGIES

Name of Learner
Section: Date :

Background Information:
One of our biggest advantages over other living things is our ability to express our
thoughts, feelings, and opinions. In fact, on many occasions in life, we are called upon to listen
on purpose to what someone else had just said. We must know how to use different listening
strategies. Listening for meaning is the ability of a person to understand and respond to the
information listened to. Hearing and not listening for meaning can lead to misunderstanding.
Top-Down Listening Strategies focus on content. These include listening for the
main idea, predicting, drawing conclusions, and summarizing.
Bottom-up Listening Strategies focus on details. The strategies include listening for
specific details, recognizing the meaning of words, and recognizing the word-order patterns.

Learning Competency with code:

Use listening strategies based on purpose, familiarity with the topic and levels of difficulty of
short texts listened to (EN7LC-II-a-6)

Selection of Activity D. Listen for Content

Hello, my name is Corona virus. I’m sure you’ve had heard my name before, but you
may not know an awful lot about me. I’m really, really small even when you use a microscope,
you wouldn’t be able to see me and, there are lots and lots of copies of me. Can you guess
how many copies of me would fit onto the end of a tiny pin? Well, the answer is millions and
millions of it.
Viruses like me are all over the world. Lots of us live on the skin, or clothes, or toys
and most of us don’t do any harm. But some of us like my cousin Flu and the common cold
do sometimes make people a bit sick. When I make someone feel sick, I have a disease called
Covid-19. I’m over the news and social media. At the moment, it is important to remain calm
and sensible. You may hear a lot of silly stories about me online and rumors about me from a
friend. So, let me introduce myself with some facts. I love traveling. I jump from person to
person through cough, sneezing, and touch. When I come to visit, I might make you feel hot
and start coughing. None of these things are very nice and can make some people very sick.
But I don’t hang around for long and almost everyone gets better.

To help make everyone safer, make sure that you wash hands with soap and water
often for at least 20 seconds. Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue or your sleeve when
you sneeze or cough. Try not to touch your eyes, mouth, or face. Don’t touch other people.
This means no handshakes, no hugs, and no high fives. Also, remember that older people are
more likely to be sick when I’m around. So, to keep your grandparents and others extra safe,
be really careful around them. If you feel hot or start coughing, make sure to tell whoever is
looking after you. If you follow this advice, I will stay away, and only a few people will get sick.

Hello, Google: How to Use a Search Engine

Name of Learner
Section: Date:

Background Information:
In this age of modern technology, every bit of information is at the tip of your finger.
With just one click, you can access so much information.
There are billions of websites today containing massive amount of information. To help
you find what you are looking for easier and sift through this information, search engines were
made. Search engines are tools found on web browsers that help one to filter the needed
information among the available on the internet.
Among the most popular search engines are Google, Yahoo!, and Bing. Since Google
Chrome is the most popular among web browsers nowadays, this is what we will use in this
lesson.
Parts of a Search Engine:

address bar

Search Engine name

keyword/
search term Search bar

Search Suggestions

How to search using search engines:

1. Open a web browser (Google Chrome, Safari, UC Browser, Mozilla
Firefox, Internet Explorer).

9
 2. Some web browsers, like Google Chrome, allow you to search directly
on the address bar.

In case this is not allowed, you may navigate the browser and look for a search icon
or search bar.

3. Type one or more keywords (search terms) then press Enter on your
keyboard.
If you are having trouble thinking of a keyword for what you need, you can use the search
suggestions. These usually appear below the search bar as you are typing a keyword. To
exclude a result, add a hyphen (-) before the keyword that you do not want to see (e.g. recipes
-chocolate). To look for exact words, use quotation marks before and after your keyword (e.g.
“Philippines”)
In this example, we will search Philippines.
Insert screenshot of search bar with Philippines.

keyword /search term

Search Suggestions

4. When you run a search, you’ll see a list of websites that match your search ter ms.
These are called search results.

10
 search results

4. When you see the search result that you are looking for, you can click
on that link, and it will divert you to the website which contains the
information you are looking for.

11
 5. If you cannot see what you are looking for on the first page of search
results, you can simply click on the next page at the bottom of the website
to see more search results.

B. Write True on the line before the number if the statement is correct, and False, if it is
incorrect.

1. Keywords are also known as search terms.

2. Search engines are online websites.
3. Web browsers are different from search engines.
4. All web browsers allow searches on the address bar.
5. Search engines are made to make our search activities more difficult.
6. The first search result is always the right information you are looking for.
7. When you want to exclude information, simply add a hyphen (-) before the
keyword.
8. To look for information with exact term or word, add quotation marks before
the keyword only (ex. “Philippines”).
9. You have to think of the right search term when you use a search engine;
otherwise, the search engine will not work properly.
10. When you don’t find what you are looking for on the first page of search
results, you can always go to the other pages of search results.

C. ONLINE TASK. It is now time for you to try using a search engine! Look for three (3) bits

Best Things to Do in Angeles City (the Philippines)

Formerly home to the largest American Air Force Base outside of the states, Angeles city
has been hyper-kicked into full urbanization. There has been a lot of international influence
here throughout modern history by the American Air force, WWII Japanese invaders, and
Spanish conquistadors. You’ll see this reflected in monuments, street names, food, and more.
When you visit, expect to see lots of historical memorials honoring American forces and
plenty of neighborhoods that were once the stomping grounds for American troops. When the
air force base closed down, many Americans stayed. That is why you’ll find a heavy expat
community here and plenty of American food, restaurants, and shops that cater towards
western desires.
The climate here is categorized as “Tropical Savanna” and “Tropical Monsoon”. You’ll find
the wettest times of the month between May and October, with the remainder of the year
relatively dry. The hottest month that Angeles City experiences is June- it typically reaches
around 90 degrees Fahrenheit.
Let’s explore the best things to do in Angeles City:
1. Join a Festival
Angeles City has festivals kicking off all year round, with October being one of the liveliest
months.
Start with La Naval Fiesta on the second Sunday of October that honors the Spanish fleet
of Navy ships that have protected the country from the Dutch.
Also in October, you can join in on 3 days of the Big Bite Northern Food Festival held at
Marquee Mall. Enjoy over 100 food stalls serving food from the Northern Philippines- with Sisig
as the main event.
On the last Friday of October, thousands of devotees migrate to the Apu shrine to pay
tribute to Jesus Christ in the Apu Fiesta.
2. Holy Rosary Church

Also known as Santo Rosario Church, this Roman Catholic Church is a beautiful sight to
visit with two tall towers and a castle-like structure. But this church is more than just a pretty
building and house of worship; it also carries a lot of controversial history.
During the Spanish era, this church was filled with Filipino slaves. The Spanish would take
Filipino people of “peasant” status and submit them to forced labor in the name of the church.
Countless murders have been committed in this spooky place.

15
 3. Juan D. Nepomuceno Center for Kapampangan Studies
With so much history and so many changes of rule in this city, it’s hard to keep up with
what happened when. Luckily, there is a comprehensive library that has archived it all.
Thanks to the Holy Angel University, anyone can come and take a deeper dive into the
history of Angeles City and the native Kapampangan people. This place serves as a museum,
research center, gallery, and more.
Nearby, you’ll also find the Museum of Kapampangan Arts that houses works by locally
famous Filipino artists.
4. Lily Hill
What was once a lookout point during World War II to monitor the movements of the
Japanese, Lily Hill is now an unofficial historical museum. Here you can find WWII relics such
as the skeleton of an old Japanese airplanes. On your visit, you’ll also find a 5-ton granite
statue of the Tibetan monk, Kannon along with smaller monuments in remembrance of these
tough times.
The land itself is worth a walk with greenery all around, blossoming flowers in the spring,
and a mysterious feeling while imagining what has taken place right where you step.
5. Kamikaze East Airfield
During World War II, the Japanese fought dirty with suicidal airplane pilots that would crash
their Kamikaze planes into the ground at great speeds, killing those around them.
At the Kamikaze East Airfield, you can visit a thought-provoking monument describing the
attacks and depicting the intense nationalism of the Japanese military soldiers. The monument
serves as a reminder to the reality that once was upon the Philippines and to promote
international friendship and positive relations so that history is never repeated in this way.
6. Puning Hot Spring
Pamper yourself at this full-service hot spring in Angeles City. Not only are there natural
hot springs with warm water to detox your system and purify your skin, but also, there are a
multitude of spa services you’ll want to get in on. There are mud masks, massages, and even
a spa service where your entire body is buried in a sandbox.

You can enjoy multiple hot spring pools on the property with bungalows and stairs carved
directly into the mountain and surrounded by carefully planted palm trees. The view is beautiful
and the entire experience is ultra-relaxing.

Name of Learner
Section: Date:

Background Information:

The present COVID-19 pandemic has brought extraordinary challenges and has
affected the educational sectors, and no one knows when it will end. Every country is presently
implementing plans and procedures on how to contain the virus, and the infections are still
continually rising. In the educational context, to sustain and provide quality education despite
lockdown and community quarantine, the new normal should be taken into consideration in
the planning and implementation of the “new normal educational policy”.

Learning is in the form of individualized instruction that allows you to use self-learning
modules (SLMs) in print or digital format/electronic copy, whichever is applicable, and other
learning resources like Learner’s Materials, textbooks, activity sheets, study guides and other
study materials. You access electronic copies of learning materials on a computer, tablet PC
or smartphone.

Moreover, the use of technology tools in learning can be a starting point in the
discussion on the effective use of online tools in remote or distance learning. In the new
normal, you should transform how you learn online, especially online tools and resources
present numerous affordances that you can take advantage of. You can curate the best online
learning resources about your topics and create learning playlists or menus that can make the
learning process a personal journey on your part. You can also surf different learning websites
and search for additional information that will help make your learning process a lot easier.

TYPES OF INFORMATION SOURCES

Name of Learner
Section: Date:

Background Information:
What is INFORMATION?
Information is knowledge obtained from investigation, study, or instruction. It can mean
different things to different people, depending on how they perceived it. Moreover, it is a way
of imparting facts, helping us to find out what we need to know. The information source we
choose will always depend on the quantity and quality of information required.

Information can come from virtually anywhere — media, blogs, personal experiences,
books, journals, magazine articles, expert opinions, encyclopedias, and web pages — and the
type of information you need will change depending on the question you are trying to answer,
or topic you want to discuss. Primarily, you need to be aware of where to look for information,
how to access it, and how to use it. You must also examine your sources to check if they are
appropriate and suitable to be included in your work. It is, therefore, necessary to use
judgment, when deciding which sources to use in the context of your study.

TYPES OF INFORMATION SOURCES

Information is published in a range of formats and it is important to select and use those
appropriate to your needs. What you use will depend on your circumstances, including the
time and technology available. Below is a brief overview of the three main formats:

1. Print

SUMMARIZING INFORMATIONAL TEXT
Name of Learner _ _
Section: Date: _

Background Information:

Summarizing informational text has several uses for students. It teaches them to
determine the most important ideas in a text, ignore unimportant information, and connect
the main idea and key details of a text in a logical way. It also helps improve memory and
comprehension of a text because students are required to focus on only the most important
points.

Why is summarizing important?

It helps you understand and learn important information by reducing information to its
key ideas. It can be used for annotation and study notes, as well as to expand the depth of
your writing.

Below are some of the strategies that you can use as a guide in making a summary
of an informational text.

1. Read the entire text. It will be difficult to accurately summarize the text if you are
trying to do so as you read it through the first time.
2. Identify the title, author, and text type. Your readers or listeners will need this
critical information in order to understand your summary.
3. Describe the central ideas. Remember that central ideas are the most important
ideas that a writer wants readers to understand. Depending on the length and
complexity of the text, the number of central ideas you include in your summary will
vary.
4. Identify key supporting details. For each central idea the writer provides, he or she
will include details to support that point. Look for subheadings or topic sentences (the
first sentence of each paragraph) to find clues about which supporting details are
important.
5. Avoid opinions and unimportant details. The purpose of a summary is to briefly
recount what a text is about, not to share your opinions about it, or bog down your
audience with every minor detail. Ask yourself: Is my language neutral? Are the
details I include important enough for my readers or listeners to know about?

Or you may also use the guide below using the acronym (TAAMIO)

T – Text Type: In this text, (article, newspaper, passage, etc.)

A – Author: the author (or use the author’s name)

2
A – Action: explains (or describes, argues, tells, teaches, etc.)

M – Main Idea: write the main idea of the text

I – Important or Key Details: add the important or key details that support the main idea

O – Organization: follow the organization of the text when writing your summary (include
relevant transition words)

However, following this format, you should still write your summary in a paragraph form.
Avoid listing down. Kindly read and analyze the two examples of summary on the next page
as to how they are summarized.

Below is an example of a summary of the poem, Youth by Maximo Ramos.

Youth
Maximo Ramos
These have known the tingling freshness
Of the coming forth from God:
The sweetness of mother’s breast
The ringing sinewiness of growth,
The feel of loved one’s cheek, the song
Of April suns and showers…
The quiet dimming down of age
And the silent wonder
Of going back
to God.

Proficiency in English 8, Worktext in English, by Yu, et. al.

Summary: In this poem entitled, Youth, Maximo Ramos wants to tell us that one’s life has a
beginning and ending most likely when a person gets old. Eventually, people will think of
going back to God.

Below is an example of a summary of an excerpt from Carmen Jochmann’s article, How to
Build a Sense of Community.

Having a support network within the neighborhood is beneficial to all.

Benefits include positive child development, cleaner, friendlier, and safer public
spaces, economic prosperity and overall health. What a 2005 Community Health
Survey said was clear that “people with a strong sense of community are more
likely to report being in good health, than those that have a weak sense of
community.”
People with high sense of community are healthy to have ties with other
individuals and are neither afraid nor worried to feel isolated and alone. So, you
need to get out of there and establish good relationships with the neighbors.
One never knows when he may need help from borrowing a shovel, to
watching the kids for a short time. People need support and confidence in life and
many people find it comforting to know that they can count on a neighbor to help if
the need arises.

Proficiency in English 8, Worktext in English, by Yu, et al.

Summary: In this excerpt Benefits of Creating a Community, Carmen Jochmann shows and
describes the benefits of having a strong sense of community such as having positive child
development, cleaner, friendlier, and safer public spaces, economic prosperity and overall
health. Moreover, it is believed that people with good relationship within the community or to
their neighbors are tend be healthy and happy.

Duterte’s father served as governor of the province of Davao, and his

mother was a community activist who had a prominent role in the “people power”
movement that deposed the authoritarian President Ferdinand Marcos and restored
democratic rule to the Philippines. Duterte earned a Political
Science Degree (1968) from Lyceum of the Philippines University in Manila and a law degree
(1972) from San Beda College. In 1977 , he joined the Davao
City Prosecutor’s Office, where he remained until he was appointed (1986)
vice mayor of that city.
Duterte was elected mayor in 1988, and he was reelected to that post twice over
the subsequent decade. Because of term -limit restrictions, he was barred from seeking
reelection in 1998, but he successfully ran for a seat
representing Davao in the Philippines House of Representatives. Upon the
completion of that term in 2001, he returned to Davao City and was once more
elected mayor. Because the term-limit restriction again came into force in 2010,
he was elected vice mayor, and his daughter Sara served as mayor. I n 2013
Duterte returned to the mayor’s office, this time with his son Paolo (“Pulong”)
serving as vice mayor.

USING ANALOGY
Name of Learner
Section: Date:

Background Information:
An analogy is used to make arguments, demonstrate ideas, and build connections
through comparison. It is comparable to simile and metaphor as it compares two things but it
is more complex. The purpose of an analogy is to better explain or expand the idea or concept
by comparing it to something else that may be familiar to it and to the reader. The two things
being compared may be completely dissimilar and unlike each other, which still helps the
audience or reader understands something about their relationship.

The following are examples of analogies:

He is as strong as an ox

The analogy compares the man’s strength to that of an animal, suggesting he is very strong.

That box is as light as a feather

This is a common analogy. The weight of the box is being compared to the weight of a feather.
Since a feather is very light, the analogy suggests that the box is also the same.

Life is a game. Sometimes you win–sometimes you lose.

The analogy compares life to how a game works. It suggests that life is full of ups and downs,
but it can be better and more fulfilling if you look at negatives as a way to learn and grow. It is
all about perspective.

My children are my plants. I must nurture them to grow strong.

This speaker is making an analogy between children and plants. The analogy works because
we think about how much effort and care we must put into plants in order to make them grow.
The speaker finds that children are similar, that they must be cared for in order to grow as well.

You may also see an analogy written as animal : carabao :: tool : hammer. The single colon
stands for “is to”; the double colon reads “as”. The relationship between the words in the
example is that the category animal includes the carabao and the category tool includes the
hammer.

Learning Competency:
Use analogy to describe or make a point. EN7OL-II-g.2.6.2

LINEAR AND NON-LINEAR TEXTS

Name of Learner
Section: Date:

Background Information:
In this millennial time, acquiring accurate information is very vital especially with
students. It is the thing that we provide or learn about something or someone. It can be found
everywhere – on the television, on the radio, over the internet, from books and magazines,
and even from the person who sits beside you. With this, we must be very careful and wise on
which we would believe in. In school setting, linear and non-linear texts or information is just
one of the many forms of information students have to learn.

Reading Path

It is how that the text or other features can be determined in the way we read it.

Linear vs Non-Linear Reading

Linear reading is the traditional mode of reading we are all taught early on; reading left
to right, from start to finish. Non-linear reading therefore, is the opposite; reading that jumps
from section to section and often without ever finishing any particular reading selection.

Linear vs Non-Linear Text

Linear text refers to traditional text that needs to be read from beginning to the end.
Here, the reader makes sense of the text according to the grammatical and syntactic
arrangement of the words. Moreover, this type of text has an order or sequence; it’s typically
the author of the text who decides the order of the text, or its reading path. Generally, texts
printed on paper are considered as linear texts. Novels, poems, short stories, letters,
educational texts, all those texts we read from the beginning to the end, are linear texts.

Non-linear text is the opposite of linear text. As its name suggests, it is nonlinear and
non-sequential. In other words, the readers do not have to go through the text in a sequential
manner in order to make sense of the text. This type of text has many reading paths since it’s
the readers who decide the sequence of reading, not the author of the text.

There are many definitions of the term nonlinear text. Most people consider texts with
visuals or graphs along with it as examples for nonlinear texts. Some examples include
flowcharts, charts, and graphs (ex: pie chart, bar graphs), graphical organizers such as
knowledge maps and story maps. In fact, any text that is not read from beginning to the end
falls into the category of nonlinear text. For example, consider an encyclopedia or a

2
telephone directory. We do not read them from beginning to the end; we skim through
them to obtain the specific information we need.

Below are some examples of non-linear texts with their functions and usage.

1. Line Graph – a common type of chart which displays information as a series of data
points connected by straight line segments to show trends.

Example:

Chart Title
100%
80%
60%
40%
20%
0%
Category 1 Category 2 Category 3 Category 4

Series 1 Series 2 Series 3

2. Bar Graph – a common type of chart which presents data with rectangular bars that
differ in their sizes. It is usually scaled so all the data could fit on the chart.

Example:

Chart Title

100%
80%
60%
40%
20%
0%
Category Category Category Category
1 2 3 4

Series 1 Series 2 Series 3

3. Pie Graph – a circular chart which is divided into slices or portions to illustrate
proportion.

Example: SALES
1st Qtr 2nd Qtr 3rd Qtr 4th Qtr

4th Qtr
3rd Q9t%
r
10%
2nd Qtr 1st Qtr 3
23% 58%
4. Pictograph – a chart that uses pictorial symbols to convey the meaning of statistical
information.

Example:

Room Number Number of Books

II

III

IV

5. Venn Diagram – an illustration that uses circles to show the relationship among
things or finite group of things.

6. Concept Diagram – a diagram that represents ideas and information as boxes and
circle and uses lines to show the relationship between them.

Why there is High Tide during a Full Moon

Long, long ago only gods lived in this world, the earth, seas, and sky were ruled by three
different powerful gods. The sun god, who ruled the sky, had a very beautiful daughter,
Luna, the moon. Luna enjoyed going around the heavens in her golden chariot. One day
she found herself taking another path which led her outside her kingdom. She wandered
on until she reached the place where the sky met the sea. Beautiful and unusual sights
greeted her eyes. As she was admiring the beautiful things around, a voice startled her. It
asked, "Where has thou come from, most beautiful one?"

Turning around she saw a young man who looked much like her father though fairer.
She wanted to run away, but when she looked at him again, she saw that he was smiling
at her. Taking courage she answered, "I am Luna, daughter of the sun god."

The young man smiled at her and answered, "I am Mar, the son of the sea
god. Welcome to our kingdom." Soon the two became good friends. They had many
interesting stories to tell each other. When it was time for Luna to go, they promised to
see each other as often as they could, for they have many more tales to tell. They
continued meeting at the same spot until they realized that they were in love with each
other.

One day after one of their secret meetings, Luna went back to the heavens full of joy.
She was so happy that she told her secret to one of her cousins. The cousin, jealous of
her beauty and her happiness, reported the relationship to the sun god. The sun god was
angered at his daughter's disobedience to the immortal laws. He shut her in their garden
and did not allow her to get out. Then he sent a messenger to the sea god informing him
that his son Mar disobeyed the immortal law. The sea god, who was also angered by his
son's disobedience, imprisoned him in one of his sea caves.

Luna stayed in the garden for some time. She was very sad at not being able to see
Mar. She longed to be with him again. Feeling very restless one day, she escaped from
the garden. She took her golden chariot and rushed to their meeting place. Mar, who
was imprisoned in the sea cave, saw her reflection on the water. He wanted to get out to
meet her. He tried hard to get out of his cave causing unrest in the sea. Luna waited for
Mar to appear, but he did not come. Then she went back home very sad. Each time
she remembered Mar, she would rush out in the golden chariot to the meeting place in
hopes of seeing him again.

The fishermen out in the sea believe that each time Luna, the moon, appears, the sea
gets troubled. "It is Mar trying to escape from his cave," they say.
