Clean Hands Save Lives

by: Marietta L. Manayag

We always say that prevention is better than cure. To spare us from any diseases, we need to wash our hands regularly whether we are at home, in school, at work, or in public places.

Handwashing is one of the best ways in removing germs, preventing oneself from being sick, and helping to stop the spread of the virus.

What do you think will happen if you always wash and keep your hands clean?

Ben, the Poultryman by: Marietta L. Manayag

Cluck! cluck! cluck! I could hear the sound of each hen, waiting for the time to strike at ten. Seeing the poultryman going out of the den. Oh! A sack of chicken feed was carried by Ben.

Cluck! cluck! cluck! It’s now time for the hens to be fed, and the fattest of them rushed in and led. Hoping to take the most of the feed which was spread, Making them full on the grains they pecked.

Cluck! cluck! cluck! Then Ben took a jar of fresh water, so hens could drink and he could rest later. For he would go to school which is a little farther, And ride on a carabao cart with his loving father.

What is It

Sequencing is arranging the order of events as they happened in the story. You can sequence events by knowing the details, using your personal experience, and understanding the message.

^{Knowing the correct sequence will also help you predict what will likely happen next.} 

^{Try to arrange the following events:}

• When he went out from their house, he noticed that the clouds were dark.

• So, he rushed and went back to their house.

• Greg was about to go to school last Monday.

In arranging these events, you can use the details and your personal experience to put these in order.

• Can you try arranging these events?

• If you arranged these in this sequence

• Greg was about to go to school last Monday. When he went out of their house, he noticed that the clouds were dark. So, he rushed and went back to their house.

• Then, you got it right!

_{Since you understood the given events, then, you can now predict what will likely happen next.}

• Why do you think Greg went back home?

• Yes! He went back probably to get his raincoat or umbrella to protect him from the rain.

• In doing this, you have used your understanding and experience to predict what will happen next.

Study the pictures below. Arrange them based on the poem Ben, the Poultryman. Write numbers 1-5 inside the box to show the correct order of events. Write the correct answers on your paper.

It’s Too Late!

by: Marietta L. Manayag

Camille always sleeps late at night because she likes to watch cartoons on television. One day, her teacher told the whole class that they have a field trip the next day and reminded them to sleep early.

Camille was so excited because it was her first time to go to the zoo. Instead of packing her things, she went straight ahead to the living room and watched again some TV series, not being mindful of the time.

Again, she slept late that night. The next day, she was awakened by the warm rays of the sun against her face. She jumped out of her bed. It was then that she realized that she woke up too late for the trip.
