purpose for the lesson (Indicator 3: Develop critical and creative thinking, as well as other higher order
thinking skills through these learning objectives that is evident in the activities

scope. The claim is a sentence that summarizes the most important thing that the
writer wants to say because of his/her thinking, reading, or writing.

D. Discussing new (Indicator 1: Integration of lesson to Grade 10 types of claims and Social Studies 10:
concepts and Contemporary Issues; Indicator 2: Enhancing literary skills through pictures and guide
practicing new skills questions; and Indicator 3: Applied a range of teaching strategies by presenting picture
#1 and asking guide questions)

Claims must be supported by evidence. The evidence can be in the form of research,
data, quotes, or textual evidence.
 How do you support your claim?
Indicator 2: Enhancing numeracy skill through providing numeric data to support the
claim.
Statistics convey information in numerical form, often referred to as data. Statistics
are most accessible and convincing when they are used sparingly and in combination
with an explanation of why the numbers are significant.

E. Discussing new
concepts and
practicing new skills

Indicator 2: Enhancing literary skills by providing textual evidence to support their

claim/s.
Textual Evidence takes many forms. It can be a direct quote, paraphrase, or summary
of the author’s original literary text. This depends on how students present the
evidence in the essay, but it serves the same purpose: to defend the claim.

 "An article in an education journal says that the progressive movement

failed because most teachers never adopted it."
 "An article in The Harvard Education Review reports that the progressive
movement failed because most teachers never adopted it."
 "Richard Elmore, a professor at Harvard's Graduate School of Education,
concludes that the progressive movement failed because most teachers
never adopted it."

F. Developing mastery (Indicator 1: Integration of lesson to Grade 10 Types of claims; Indicator 2: Enhancing

1. Read “Should Homework be Mandatory?” and answer the question below.

Should Homework be Mandatory?

J. Additional activities I can almost see many students nodding along with me as I ask this question.
for application or Youngergenerations overloaded with home tasks and numerous assignments have already
remediation raised this issue many times. Yet, homework remains mandatory.Is it fair or should it be
cancelled? I believe that homework should not be viewed as a mandatory part of
education forseveral reasons. First, children spend seven hours every single workday at
school. That is a huge chunk of life, and with homework added on top of these hours, a
child is left with no time to live his life to the fullest, socialize, or grow in other areas.
Second, sitting at your desk solving problems does no good to your health. Kids needtime
to get outside and have some fun, join a football league, or ride their bikes with friends
around the block. Otherwise, children will be very smart but surprisingly weakphysically.
Another argument against this position is that homework is not always the best way
toobtain knowledge quality-wise. Students tend to ask their parents or siblings for help
whenever facing difficulties. Busy parents not always willing to spend extra time explaining
school material to their little one solve the problems themselves aiming to have more time
for family, not lessons. As a result, the child will have the homework done. But that’s really
not his work. So, the whole idea of dedicating time to self- education is lost here. Finally,
knowing that after classes you would still have to work at home makes a kid less
concentrated at school. This results in short attention spans and difficulty to concentrate
on something for too long. All in all, homework should rather be an option. Students
understanding that they areleft behind at some subjects will take their time to go over the
material at home. However, in other cases, they should have time after school for other
activities.

Guide Questions:
1. What is the position paper about?
2. What is/are the claim/s of the writer?
3. If you were the writer, what will be your stand? Defend your answer.
