A. Motivation There are a lot of things which we value most in this world like friends, family, money, gadgets, jewelry and the like. Okay class, before you have entered in this room you were gathered for some important reminders. And before we start, try to check yourselves, your things. I will give you 10 seconds to check your things. Have you noticed something? (Students answer vary) Oh! It seems that you’re looking for your things still. How does it feel when you have noticed that something is missing? (I feel furious and discouraged.) What if you only borrowed that certain thing which you have lost? What will you do? (Students answer vary) Okay class, that activity we’ve just done is connected to our discussion. We have gotten some of your things a while back to see your reactions that are quite familiar to the selection we will tackle but we do not owe you to steal. B. Unlocking of Difficulties

I have prepared three (3) illustrations of lady wearing an elegant gown. In each lady’s gown, there is a written sentence with unfamiliar word. All you have to do is to find the meaning of the words written also on a necklace. I need braver students to guess and to find the meaning of the underline words in the illustrations. Ok, any hands? (Some students raise their hands) The following words are:

-high quality

textile

Mariana thought of silent chambers hung with Oriental tapestry.

European currency

-pleasing

The price of Linda’s dress was fortythousand francs.

Damty cabinets containing priceless curiosities.

C. Presentation/Reading Listen carefully class as I read to the story. (Teacher reads the story aloud) The teacher explains what is the story all about. D. Comprehension/Discussion 1.Who are the characters in the story? 2. Why do you think did Mathilde Loisel act and thing the way she did as far as her status in life was concerned? 3. Where does the conflict begin and where does it end? 4. What role does the diamond necklace play in the story? 5. If you were the husband, would you have done the same? 6. What is the message of the story? IV.

Evaluation (Group Activity) Let’s have some activity. I will group you into five (5).I would like to check your group under your armchair, whatever color has been placed in your armchair and that will be your group. Red team as the first group, Yellow the second group, Blue team as the third group, White is the fourth group and Green is the last group. But before you proceed to your respective groups I would like to request each one of you to place your armchair at the side. The first group will have to extract some important part of the story and act it in the class or role playing. The second group will

have to make a slogan that best describes the meaning of the story. Blue team will have to compose a jingle regarding the story. The White team, think about something or someone that best describes the main character in the story by putting it into illustration or poster making. And the last group will have to compose a poem regarding the story. I will give you 15 mins to do that, is that clear class? Any question? (None ma’am/sir) (Students are busy making their activity) Ok class; finalize your works because after 30 seconds we will proceed now to your presentations. (Students present their works) V.
