QUARTER IV
The Fourth Quarter topics in Filipino IV is all about El
Filibusterismo. . El Filibusterismo also known as the reign of greed. It is the
second novel written by Dr. Jose Rizal, our national Hero. It is the sequel to
Noli Me Tangere and like the first book was written in Spanish and it was first
published in 1891.
The students were given the activity wherein they were going to
identify the characters in the first chapter of the book. Along with this activity
they were able to explain the role of each character and how their role affects
the students. Like the Bapor Tabo wherein they learn the discriminations and
injustice during that time. They were able to reflect on the situations to the
present life. The students were able to understand the reasons why Dr. Jose
Rizal was very persistent to his decisions to write novels like Noli Me Tangere
and El Filibusterismo for the purpose of awakening the Filipinos to fight for
what is wright.
As the lesson on the life works and writings of Dr. Jose Rizal
progresses, I feel that the students were challenged to be good citizens of the
Philippines and to be law abiding people of our country. They learned to
challenge themselves to be strong and independent individuals.
We ended with a belief that Jose Rizal is worth to be the National
Hero of the Philippines.

QUARTER I
As the first quarter started I believed that the students needs the
review on basic topics in Filipino 10. Basically they were given the chance to
review on the different Literary pieces. They were able to identify and define
the different literary pieces. Each were discussed and examples were given.
The were tasked to look for examples of each of the literary pieces;
write those on the short bond papers and have theme passed to the teacher.
These served as there output for the first quarter period.
One of the most exciting part was the activity focusing on writing
a poem. They were tasked to write a poem entitled “ Ang Aking Ina.” They were
only given 30 minutes to do the activity. Everybody were very serious in doing
the activity.
I was affected with the outputs of the students. I cant help but cry
while reading the poems they made. I feel that the activity was really useful
knowing that the mothers are the most beloved people of the world.

QUARTER II
In line with the topic Ang Motolohiya, the students were able to
define what is mitolohiya, identify the Greek gods and goddesses and their
characteristics. There stories of survival wherein students were able to reflect
and learn some lessons in life. Just like the love story of Cupid and Psyche
which depicts on the power of love. The lovers were very persistent and strong
enough to fight challenges for the sake of their love for each other.
One of the exciting activities that we had was the film viewing. The
film was entitled “Wonder Woman.” The learners enjoyed so much watching
upon Diana and Aries fighting using their extraordinary power. At the end
Diana or Wonder Woman won the fight. It was a proof that good things will
always prevail.
It was not a regret on my part having this activity for I know that
using visual like film showing is more an effective strategy for students to enjoy
while learning.

QUARTER III
After taking up some grammar points on the third quarter modules
in Filipino 10 I decided to give some time in discussing the story of Romeo and
Juliet. It is a love that everybody knows but sad to say many of us cannot
detail the whole story.
The love story of Romeo and Juliet were clearly discussed in the
class. The students were tasked to write a storyline of Romeo and Juliet for the
purpose of knowing the skill of writing a storyline. One of the exciting activities
is that the students were given the chance to perform on stage in the form of a
play. They were given 5 days to memorize the important lines of every character
of the story and another 2 days to practice the play. The play was played with
costume and sound effects and with stage decorations. The play was
successfully performed by the 4 sections in grade 10.
It was one of the great performances that we had since I was able
to see the acting skills of the students as well as their artistic skills in providing
appropriate costume and stage design.
