1. Review
Before we start our lesson for today, let us
review our lesson yesterday. What have we
 We have studied about the days of the
studied yesterday?
week.

How many days are there in a week?
So, can anybody tell me the days of the
week?
(Write the days of the week in order and let
the pupils read them twice.)
 There are 7 days in a week.
 The days of the week are Monday,
Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday,
Saturday, and Sunday.

2. Motivation
When is your birthday?
(The pupils answer the questions and
When is Christmas celebrated? share their own experiences.)
When is our town and barangay fiesta
celebrated?
It seems you are all aware of your birth dates
and other common occasions. I guess it will
be easy for you to understand the short story
I am going to share with you.

B. Developmental Activities

1. Presentation

I will read you a story about a Grade 1

pupil named Vincent. Listen as I read the (the class listen attentively as the teacher
story. reads the story)

After the end of classes on April, Vincent

was excited because next month, he would go
to Zambales to spend his vacation at his
cousin’s place. When the month of May came,
he went to Zambales. There, he visited his
cousin Marco. Marco took him to the farm
field and they also played on the grassland
there. They also went fishing. He did not
notice that it was already the end of May and
he had to go home.
 He went back home on June. He was so
excited and he couldn’t wait to tell his friends
what he experienced during his vacation in
Zambales.
