Let us sing The Greatest Love of All.

(Students sing)

 “How could you say so, Xandra?” “Because Sir I noticed that the song
has a lot to do with our love for
children or mother to her daughter,
father to his son. It has something to
do with our love for our family, that’s
the greatest love of all. The writer
believes in what Dr. Jose Rizal said,
“The youth is the hope of the
Fatherland.”
“That was a very good explanation, Xandra. You
know what class, the song simply tells us that we
should always consider for us to keep our family
or relationship with others intact, sometimes
showing affection or love towards a person, makes
him feel that he is appreciated and there will be
feeling of belongingness and love especially to
young ones. And also as what have Xandra said,
the writer believes that you, the younger
generations, are the hope of our Fatherland. So,
class, I want you to finish your study to
accomplish the challenge that have given by our
national hero.”

“Everybody had just sung very well. Give

yourselves a big hand.
