Subject: English for Academics and Professional Purposes

Grade Level: Grade 12

Objective: Gathers information from surveys, experiments, or observations,

disseminates written forms of information from surveys, experiments, or
observations, summarizes findings, and executes the report through narrative
and visual/graphic forms.

Learning within the curriculum:

1) Conducting a research project on the impact of social media on academic

performance, which involves gathering data through surveys and presenting the
findings in a written report. This aligns with the objective as students learn to gather
information and summarize their findings effectively.

2) Writing a lab report based on a science experiment, where students collect data,
analyze results, and present their findings in a structured format. This connects with
the objective by emphasizing the importance of clear communication in
disseminating experimental results.

Learning across the curriculum:

1) In Mathematics, students learn about statistics and data representation. This

subject connects with the objective as students gather and analyze data from
surveys, creating visual representations, such as graphs and charts, to summarize
their findings.

2) In Social Studies, students explore community issues and conduct surveys to

gather opinions on local governance. The objective is met as they compile their
findings into a report, using narrative and visual forms to present their insights
effectively.

[Teaching Strategy: Interactive Read-Aloud Activities]

[Instructional Materials: Stories or case studies related to surveys and

experiments]
Anecdote 1 - A local barangay conducted a survey on the cleanliness of the
community, and the results showed that the majority of residents wanted more waste
disposal bins. This led to a community meeting where solutions were discussed,
demonstrating the importance of gathering and acting on public opinion.

Anecdote 2 - During a school science fair, students conducted experiments on plant

growth under different light conditions. Their findings were presented visually through
charts and narratives, helping them understand the significance of documenting and
sharing scientific observations.

ENGAGE:

[Teaching Strategy: Problem-Based Learning]

[Instructional Materials: Survey templates, poster boards for visual aids]

1) Idea - Conduct a class survey on a topic of interest (e.g., school lunches).

Students will gather data, summarize their findings, and create a visual report
(charts/graphs) to present to the class.

2) Idea - Organize a mock science experiment where students hypothesize the

effects of different factors on plant growth. They will collect data, summarize the
results, and present their findings in both written and visual formats.

Inclusive Activity 3: "Community Observation"

[Teaching Strategy: Experiential Learning]

Materials - None

Significance - Encourages students to observe and report on real-life scenarios.

Instructions -

1) Choose a location in the community to observe (e.g., park, market).

2) Take notes on what you observe regarding the environment and people.

3) Summarize your observations in a narrative format and share with the class.

Rubric

- Depth of observation - 5 pts.

- Clarity of narrative - 5 pts.

- Engagement during presentation - 5 pts.

Assessment Questions:

1) What specific details did you notice during your observation?

2) How did your observations relate to the community's needs?

3) What insights did you gain from sharing your observations with classmates?
EXPLAIN:

Activity 1 - The teacher introduces the concept of surveys by discussing their

importance in various fields (e.g., business, health). Students ask questions about
how surveys influence decision-making.

Activity 2 - The teacher explains how to document experiments properly,

emphasizing the significance of clear communication. Students share their previous
experiences with experiments, fostering a collaborative learning environment.

ELABORATE:

[Teaching Strategy: Project-Based Learning]

Task 1 - Create a community needs assessment report based on surveys conducted

in the local area. Students will analyze the data and propose solutions.

Task 2 - Develop a visual presentation (e.g., infographic) summarizing the findings

from a scientific experiment. Students will present their work to the class.

Supporting Material 1 - Article on effective survey design.

Supporting Material 2 - Guide on creating infographics.

EVALUATE:

[Teaching Strategy: Formative Assessment]

[Instructional Materials: Assessment rubric]

Question 1 - How did you gather and analyze data for your report?

Question 2 - What challenges did you encounter while summarizing your findings?

Question 3 - How did you ensure your report was clear and engaging?
H.O.T.S.:

Question 1 - Discuss the ethical considerations when conducting surveys.

Answer 1 - Ethical considerations include obtaining informed consent and ensuring

participant anonymity to protect their privacy.

Question 2 - How can visual aids enhance the understanding of data?

Answer 2 - Visual aids can simplify complex information, making it easier for
audiences to grasp key concepts and trends.

Question 3 - Analyze the impact of bias in survey questions.

Answer 3 - Bias in survey questions can skew results, leading to inaccurate

conclusions that do not reflect the true opinion of the population.

EXTEND:
