    ENGLISH 9 Second Quarter Lesson 2 S.Y. 2021-2022

    MELCS : Analyze literature as a means of understanding unchanging values in


    the VUCA (volatile, uncertain, complex ambiguous) world.

    Introduction:

    Reading literature is important. It does not only develop your cognitive skills but also
    teach you important life values. Working on this module, you are expected to analyze
    literature as a means of understanding unchanging values in the Volatile, Uncertain,
    Complex, and Ambiguous (VUCA) world.

    This module will not only make you understand the texts but also appreciate the
    messages behind these. It will let you explore the unchanging values expressed in literary
    texts as it engages you in meaningful literary appreciation tasks.
    I hope that as you work on the module, you will learn and develop positive values
    that will make you a better person particularly now that we are facing uncertainty due to
    the coronavirus pandemic.

    Work on the pre-assessment first then work on the various activities. If you have any
    questions or clarifications, you may ask your teacher. Your teacher will be very glad to help
    you. It is important that you answer all the activities independently and honestly then
    answer the post assessment to check how much you have learned.

    Lesson Proper:
    Something you need to know about Literature :

    Footnote to Youth , The story of Chunhyang and Ramayana are examples of


    literature. Merriam-Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary defines literature to be “writings
    having excellence of form or expression and expressing ideas of permanent or
    universal interest.” It encompasses forms such as novels, stories, poems, nonfiction
    and plays. It is important to note that literature has valuable lessons to teach its
    readers.

    Right now, we are experiencing many changes brought about by Covid-19. A


    lot of things are happening outside our control. The pandemic has heightened our
    uncertainty over the family’s finances, relationships, health, studies and others.
    This made us feel anxious and stressed. Nevertheless, literature teaches us to cope
    with the difficult circumstances and to face the unknown by applying the
    unchanging values that we have as Filipinos. Among the many unchanging Filipino
    values that we consider important are enumerated below.

    1. extending a warm welcome to guests


    2. respecting the elders
    3. having close family ties
    4. helping the needy
    5. believing in a supreme being

    Now, read the poem below then do the activities that follow. The activities will help
    you have a better understanding of the text.
    A PSALM OF LIFE
    _By Henry Wadsworth Longfellow _

    Tell me not, in mournful numbers,


    Life is but an empty dream!
    For the soul is dead that slumbers, Trust no Future, howe’er pleasant!
    And things are not what they seem. Let the dead Past bury its dead!
    Act,— act in the living Present!
    Life is real! Life is earnest! Heart within, and God o’erhead!
    And the grave is not its goal;
    Dust thou art, to dust returnest, Lives of great men all remind us
    Was not spoken of the soul. We can make our lives sublime,
    And, departing, leave behind us
    Not enjoyment, and not sorrow, Footprints on the sands of time;
    Is our destined end or way;
    But to act, that each to-morrow Footprints, that perhaps another,
    Find us farther than to-day. Sailing o’er life’s solemn main,
    A forlorn and shipwrecked brother,
    Art is long, and Time is fleeting, Seeing, shall take heart again.
    And our hearts, though stout and
    brave, Let us, then, be up and doing,
    Still, like muffled drums, are beating With a heart for any fate;
    Funeral marches to the grave. Still achieving, still pursuing,
    Learn to labor and to wait.
    In the world’s broad field of battle,
    In the bivouac of Life,
    Be not like dumb, driven cattle!
    Be a hero in the strife!
