I have here a song and video to share
with you.

2. Motivation/Advocating Prior
Knowledge

• Great answers my dear students. I am without judgments
happy listening to your answers. Give
yourself a pat on your shoulder for
being great and kind. Indeed, we can
be kind in different ways and I hope at
your home, school and community,
always choose to be kind to the people
around you. Now, let us explore more
about kindness through a story. But
first, let us be familiarize with some
important terms or words.

3. Unlocking of Difficulties

these words presented to you;
- Homeless
- Sorrow
- Beaver
• Can you tell which of the words
describe each of the picture? For the
first picture;

• Beaver

• Very good! The picture shows a beaver.


Beaver are large mammals who can
live both in water and land, like ponds,
rivers, lakes and tree trunks.
• For the second picture;
• Sorrow

• Excellent! Sorrow is a feeling of great


sadness or distress caused by loss,
disappointment and others.

home or
permanent
place to
live

• Homeless is when people have


nowhere to live and those who
wander around because they don’t
have a home or place to live in.

familiarized with some important
terms let us now read a story
named, “The Homeless Monkey”.

2. Reading of the Story/Poem


• (Present and read the story through a
PowerPoint Presentation)
The Homeless Monkey
Once upon a time, there lived a monkey who
had no home of his own. They called him
‘Springs’, for he always walked with a bounce
in his steps. He had sold everything he owned,
and with that money, he had started traveling
the world.

He wanted to see the world’s smallest and


biggest wonders. He traveled from village to
village, town to town and offered his services-
to do work in exchange for food and shelter.
• (Students will listen attentively/
He was a happy monkey and he loved helping
follow by reading silently)
people. One day, he passed through the
village of Zver, where twenty animals lived. He
saw an old beaver. So, he walked towards him
and said “Hello, Mr. beaver. If I was to do some
garden work for you today, would you be so
kind as to give me something to eat.”

The old beaver agreed and asked Springs to


do some gardening and fix up a few things
around the house. It was a long and tiring day
for Springs but enjoyed his day.

When springs returned to the house in the


evening, the whole village had gathered there.
There was a lot of food put out on the large
wooden table and everybody was celebrating
as though a hero had come to their small
village.
They all had a great time that night; it was like a
big party. There was dancing, and lots food and
Springs really enjoyed his evening.

The following morning when Springs was ready to


leave, the old beaver approached Springs with
tears in his eyes and said, “Thank you for joining
us for dinner. Please come back whenever you
have time. I have two boys around your age who
I have not seen in 10 years. Spending time with
you reminded me of my boys.”

Springs did not know what to say so he just


hugged the Beaver, just like he would his father,
and set off on his way with a promise to return one
day. Springs had been walking for some time and
was tired.

He saw two highway robbers who pushed him


down and took his bag away. When the robbers
looked in his bag, they only found a rope, some
tools, and some bread.

They threw his bag on the ground and ran away.


Springs picked up his backpack and continued on
his journey. He started to think about all the good
and bad in the world.

The road was long and finally led him to a dark


forest. The only way he could continue his journey
was to walk through the forest.

Springs walked for more than an hour and then he


realized he was lost. He decided to climb up a tree
to relax and eat some of the bread the villagers
had given him. Suddenly Springs heard some
voices shouting for help.

He climbed down from the tree and ran in the


direction the voices were coming from. Springs
reached the place the voices were coming from.
He saw that the two robbers who had pushed him
earlier that day were trapped inside a deep hole in
the ground. They were both trapped and couldn’t
get out and were yelling for help.

Springs quickly reached into his backpack and


grabbed the rope that was inside. He tied one end
of the rope to a tree and threw the other
end inside the hole. The robbers both quickly
climbed up the rope to safety.

The robbers were amazed that Springs had saved


them. One robber asked “Why did you help us? We
pushed you and tried to rob you earlier!”.

Springs replied “There are good people and bad


people in this world. The good people do good
things and bad people do bad things. I have
decided to be one of the good people.” The two
robbers were amazed by Springs’ reply.

Springs told the robbers, “I have traveled far and


wide, seen happiness as well as sorrow. I have
met all kinds of people; good, bad, old, and young.
I have experienced all sorts of bad things, but I
have always tried to do only good things.”

As Springs was leaving, he gave the two robbers


some bread with a smile and said, “I hope what I
have said today will help you realize that there is
always a way to live without causing harm to
others.”

3. Answering of the Motive Question

4. How did the monkey show kindness in the
story? • He offers good services to others.

• He hugged the old beaver when he saw

• He helped the robbers trapped in the deep

He also gave the robbers bread to provide



them something to eat.
5. If you were the monkey would you also
• (students answers may vary)
help the robbers despite what they did?
6. Which line of the main character struck
you the most? Or Which line of the main

character was your favorite?

• For the last question, determine the


main theme or message of the story
through a word or phrase. Write your
answer on a piece of paper. Then,
support your answer with the clues in
the story such as writing the • (students will do the activity)

characters’ lines and describing his


actions. Write also at least 1-2
sentences to support your answer.
• Now, everybody raise your papers.
Wow! Your answers are amazing. Can • (students will raise their answers)
I call some students to share and
explain their answers?
• (the teacher will call some students)
• (students will explain their work)

4. Comprehension Check
• Great job my dear students. You have (Students will listen attentively)
clearly determined the message of the
story. Some of you have answered
kindheartedness, helping others, live a
good life, treat others with kindness
etc. and all of you are correct. You
have also supported your answers with
the clues found in the story.
• We have to remember that when we
talk about the theme of the story, it’s • For us kindness is when we
about the author’s message or the help people which was shown

infer the theme of the story, we look for
the clues in the story or use our prior
experiences and knowledge. Like what
you did, you support your answers by
describing what the character said and
did in the story. We can also use our
prior experiences or knowledge. But
how? In the story without using any
clues in the text, why did you think
kindness or being good is the theme of
the story?
• Yes! Before our lesson, you have
shared that being kind is when you
help others, smile at people, being
considerate of other’s feelings, saying
good words and others. You have
already prior knowledge about what is
kindness. So, you can use this
knowledge as a basis in determining
the theme of the story.

5. Valuing/ Integration
• The theme of the story you heard is
about kindness or being good to
others. Now, prior to the story, I have
here a somewhat similar situation.
Supposed;
- You have witnessed your classmate
took someone else’s
“baon”. You followed him but when
you are about to confront him, you • (students answers may vary)
see that some of your classmates
are already confronting him
because of what he did. However,
you witness that they are physically
bullying him. What will you do? Will
you help him regardless of the bad
thing he did? Or let him suffer for
what he did?
-Very good! What your classmate did
was wrong, but this doesn’t mean that
he deserved to be hurt. You can
defend him from the bullies or report
what you see to your teacher and you
can just address what he has done
wrong later. Also, we never knew the
reason behind what he did, he might
have done it because he doesn’t have
a “baon” or because his parents cannot
provide him food. Here in the situation,
you can correct someone’s’ mistake
without harming him. We have to
remember that kindness without a
sense of caring, love and respect is not
kindness at all. Like what Spring did in
the story we read, even the robbers have
done something bad to him without a
second thought he helped the robbers
get out from the deep hole, because he
cares for them and what’s important for
him is to help them get out from the
danger.
• Now with what you learned from the story,
I want you to think of a word or phrase to
complete the sentence below.

Kindness is _______________________. • (students will orally share their

something”.
