 Determine worthwhile human

values;
 Relate the message/theme of
the story read to present
scenario; and
 Engage in different activities.
Good morning, class! For this morning,
we’ll have first an activity entitled “Mirror
on the Wall, Tell me who am I as
Whole?” Here are the mechanics of the
game:

 Teacher flashes mirror on the

board,
 Student shall describe
herself/himself in a single word or
use anything that mirrors her/him
as a person.
 Then, justify his/her answer by
sharing her/his life’s experiences.

“Mirror on the Wall, Tell me who am I

as Whole?”
Ma’am, I am an apple. Apple
looks good but sometimes, when
consumed, it spoils fast. So am I.
I treat people the way do to me. I
could be very kind but please,
don’t just abuse.

Very well said. Goodness is innate to

everyone. Let’s not just trigger anger to
burst out. Any other answer? Ma’am, I am a pen. I write all my
thoughts and emotions, whether
I’m happy or not. Writing has
been my sweetest escape since
then.

Wow! Nice answer. We all craft our own

story. Putting my thoughts and emotions
 into writing is also my favorite pass time.
B. Establishing a purpose From our activity, what have you noticed,
for the lesson class?
Ma’am, it talks about knowing
ourselves better.
Precisely! Just like the main character in
the story we’ll be dealing later, it took him
time to know what really matters in life.

For today’s discussion, we will tackle

about a story titled, “The Little Prince”.
But before delving into the entire literary
piece, let’s first know the background of
the author. Kindly read what is projected
on screen, class.
• Antoine De Saint-
Exupery is a French
writer and aviator.
• Was born in Lyon and
educated at the
University of Fribourg.
• He joined the French Air
Force in 1921 and
became a commercial
pilot in 1926.
• His first two books,
Southern Mail (1929;
translated 1933) and
Night Flight (1931;
translated 1932) are
novels distinguished by a
poetic evocation of the
romance and the
discipline of flying, which
requires devotion to duty
at the risk of death.
C. Presenting examples and What do you value most in life?
other instances Ma’am, I value time. Time is all
we have and don’t. Rarely do we
realize that it’s just spent for
nothing. We should take every
moment as if it’s the last.
Nice one! You can never bring back time.
Thus, spend it wisely. Who else has an
idea?
Ma’am, I value love from the
people around me. Everyone
deserves love but not all
experience being loved. Blessed
am I to have my family and
friends.
Wow! Indeed, we all deserve to love and
to be loved.

Based from your answers, I’ve seen how

everyone appreciates simpler things. It’s
true that little things could give you
bigger realizations. Are there questions,
class?

None, ma’am.
D. Discussing new concepts Now, class may I post you this question:
and practicing new skill What does the statement mean: “What is
#1 essential is invisible to the eye.”?

You’ll come to answer that question as

we move forward to our discussion. I
 prepared a worksheet which will test
whether you have read the story.

ADJECTify: Describe the Little Prince

and the Fox by giving them proper
adjectives. Be sure to use the words that
will create pictures in your minds. Let the
graphic organizer below help you in this
activity.

E. Discussing new concepts Now, read the story, “The Little Prince”
and practicing new skill by Antoine de Saint-Exupery through
#2 popcorn reading. Afterwards, answer the
following questions:

1. Who are the characters in the story?

Describe each.
2. How important is the “rite” or “ritual” of
taming the friendship of the Little Prince
and the Fox?
3. What is the theme/message of the
story?
4. Have you ever established
camaraderie with other people? If so,
how?
5. What is the symbol of the “rose” used
by the fox?
F. Developing Mastery To solicit all your insights on the topic we
just discussed, we’ll play “Crown the
Prince”. Here are the mechanics of the
game:

 Each student shall act like the

little prince.
 Once called, the teacher gives
him/her a “crown” to be worn.
 This is to emphasize empathy on
the role of the character.

Questions:
1. How do you judge people? Is it
through physical appearance?
2. Have you ever broken a promise
to your friend?
3. Do you always believe that
 everyone in this world is unique?

G. Finding practical As a young adult, how would you keep

applications of concepts your friendship last longer?
Ma’am, I keep my promises to
never break the trust of someone
else.
Wow! Unfortunately, sometimes when
time gets tough, we forget to stand to
that promise. Any other?
Ma’am, by spending quality time
and never forgetting to ask how
they are.
Nice one!
H. Making generalizations After reading the text, I want you to
and abstractions about ponder on what does this statement
the lesson mean: “What is essential is invisible to
the eye.”?
Ma’am, most important things in
life are not seen by the naked
eyes, rather they are felt by the
heart like love, care, time, trust,
and etc.
Very good. The best things in life are felt
and embraced. Any other?
Ma’am, all the things that our two
eyes can see are just temporary.
They would soon fade or be
gone. Thus, value those things
that really make you happy.
Very well said.
