disadvantages.

Very well said! How about the cohesive

devices? Students: These are the word connectors and

and many more.

2. Presentation of Roles/Concepts/General
Ideas

Alright! Now let’s start our discussion.

What do you call a situation that may

happen in real life? Students: Reality, ma’am.

Yes, that is correct! Now, kindly read the

definition of Reality everyone, go!
Students: Reality- it is a realistic event which
tells about things that could really happen in
real life.

Thank you. Reality is an event, situation that

actually exist or happen in real life. We can
see/witnessed/experience as it truly exists.

Let’s take a look at this picture.

Students: Yes, ma’am.

What do you think of this picture? Do you No, ma’am.
think this is real?

Alright, some of you answered no, and there

are some also who answered yes. But this
picture of women with neck ring is real
because women in some tribes of Africa
practice this. And also these people believe
that having an extremely long neck is not only
attractive but dignifying as well.
Alright, now how about this picture

Angela: Yes, ma’am, it is real. Because hair

Do you think this is real? Yes, Angela? can possibly grow that long if you don’t cut
them off.

Very good, Angela! That is correct. So, this

happens in reality. Just like Angela said, hair
can possibly grow if you don’t cut it off.
Students: Yes, ma’am.
Did you understand the concept of reality?
Students: None, ma’am.
Do you have questions before we proceed?

Alright!

Now, what do you call any situation that is Students: Fantasy, ma’am.
magical or makes you believe it could
happen in real life?
Students: Fantasy- tells about things that
Very good. Now, kindly read the definition of
could not happen in real life.
fantasy, go!

Thank you! Fantasy, class is something that

could never possibly happen in real life. It is
an idea that is mostly far from normal reality.

Let’s take a look and analyze this picture

Students: No, ma’am because pigs in real life

Do you think pigs can fly? Do you think don’t have wings.
this happen in real life?

Indeed. Though we always say this

expression ‘pigs can fly’ but this is just an
idiomatic expression. Therefore, this picture
is an example of fantasy because pigs don’t
have wings, thus can’t fly. Students: Unrealistic characters, ma’am.
What makes up a story fantasy, class?

Very good! That is correct. Things that makes

up a story a fantasy is having unrealistic
character. Which means that animals or things
are able to talk or have magical powers. Students: Yes, ma’am.

Did you understand the concept of fantasy,

class? Students: None, ma’am.
Do you have questions?

Alright! To proceed let’s analyze the poem of

Langston Hughes entitled ‘Dream’ and
identify the thing that makes the poem reality
and fantasy.

But before that, let’s first know the author.

Who is he?

This is Langston Hughes. He is a poet,

novelist, fiction writer, and a playwright.
Langston Hughes is known for his insightful,
colorful portrayals of black life in America.

Unlocking of Difficulties

For us to fully understand the poem, let us

Students: -
first unlock the unfamiliar words that you will
be encountering in the poem. Everybody broken- winged bird - means a bird that is
read, go! unable to fly due to one or both of its wings
being broken.

- barren field - means land has thin soil,

sand, or rocks, and has very few plants and no
trees. Barren lands include deserts.

Motive Question

Now class, I want you to ponder on this

question, before we proceed to the poem.

‘What are your dreams in life’ Students: Yes, Ma’am.

Reserved your thoughts because we will go

back to that question later on. Am I clear?

Alright! Now, let’s proceed to the poem.

Dreams
By: Langston Hughes

Hold fast to dreams

 For it dreams die
Life is a broken-winged bird
That cannot fly.
Hold fast to dreams
For when dreams go
Life is a barren field
Frozen with snow.

Now, after reading the poem, what do you Bea: What I’ve understand about the poem
think is the message that the author wants us ma’am is that the author wants us to realize
to realize? that dream big and do not give up on what
Yes, Bea? you are dreaming.

Indeed. The author wants us to dream big and

telling us to don’t give up on our dreams or
goals because giving up means that, your life
will become unhappy and miserable.

Now let’s go back to the question I’ve asked Jolo: My dream is to become successful
earlier. someday, ma’am.

‘What are your dreams in life? Vale: My dream is to work abroad ma’am.

Bea: My dream is to become a doctor ma’am.

Gwen: My dream is to become a wife of

Wonwo ma’am.

Fantastic, class. Pursue that dreams that you

wanted in the future.

Now, Dreams can be reality and fantasy class.

Dreams without actions are just fantasy. Students: Yes, ma’am.

However, if one strives and work hard, that
dream will turn into reality.

Did you get me? Students: It speaks about the importance of

holding into your dreams ma’am, and that
Now, what makes the poem reality and what makes the poem reality.
fantasy based on your analyzation?

Students: When we dream, ma’am we use our

 imagination to picture out things. And that
what makes the poem fantasy.
Very good! That is correct. How about the
fantasy?

Perfect! All of your answers are correct.

The poem ‘Dreams’ of Hughes beautifully

intertwines elements of both reality and
fantasy. The poem speaks about the
importance of holding onto dreams and not
letting go of them despite the hardships of
life. And that what makes up the poem reality,
because this kind of situation always happen
in real life. On the other hand, the poem adds
fantastical quality as dreams often evoke a
sense of wonder and imagination. And that
what makes up the poem fantasy—through
imagination. Because when we dream things,
we tend to imagine that dream beyond our Students: Yes, ma’am.
control that somehow makes it impossible to
happen. Students: None, ma’am.

Did you understand?

Do you have questions?

Alright.
