III. Procedure
Teacher’s Activity Students’ Activity
a. Preparation
(Prayer)
Good afternoon, class! Good afternoon, sir.
Kindly pick up pieces of paper or plastic

wrappers on the floor.
b. Motivation
Are you familiar with the Harry Potter

series? Yes, sir.
Have you seen the movies or read the

books? Yes, sir.
Very well. Today, we will be reading a

story taken from the last book of the
series, Harry Potter and the Deathly
Hallows. This story is titled The Tale of
the Three Brothers.
Before we begin to read the story, we
must first find the meanings of the
difficult words we are going to encounter
as we read the story.
I want you to match the difficult word

with its corresponding meaning.
DIFFICULT WORDS DEFINITIONS/MEANINGS
Winding Cannot be seen by the naked eye

Treacherous Dangerous and unpredictable
Humiliate To praise highly
Reluctantly Not willing to do so
Invincibility Not going directly to the destination
To make someone feel ashamed
Impossible to defeat
Good job, class! We can now read the
story without any difficulties. Class, do
you have any questions about the story? (Students raise motive questions.)
Great. We shall answer these questions

after we read the story. Are you now
ready to read the story? Yes, sir!
(Teacher reads the story.)
Now, let us answer the questions you

raised earlier and see if you have found
the answers.
(Teachers call students who raised (Students answer their motive

questions.) questions.)
Brilliant! You have truly understood the

story.
Now class, take a look at these words.
Sad
Cold
Distant
Clever
How were these words used in the story?
They were used to modify and describe,
Yes, indeed. And if a word is used to sir.
describe or modify, what do we call these
words?
They are called adjectives, sir.
Correct! Now, take a look at these words.
Oldest
Youngest
These are still adjectives, right?

Yes, sir.
But what makes them different from the
adjectives we talked about earlier?
They are not just used to describe but
Excellent! Adjectives can be used to they are also used to compare, sir.
describe and to compare.
Today, we will be talking about how to

use adjectives to compare nouns. We will
be talking about the degrees of
comparison.
c. Discussion
In the English language, we use three

degrees of comparison. We have the
positive degree, the comparative degree,
and the superlative degree.
In the positive degree, there is no

comparison. We are only simply
describing one noun or pronoun.
e.g.
The Philippines is a big country.
Clarisse is a beautiful girl.
Create your own sentence using the

positive degree.
Pearls are expensive.
The apple is sweet.
Nice work! Now, let’s move on to the
comparative degree. Here, we are now
comparing two nouns or two pronouns.
To use the comparative degree, add the
suffix –er to the adjective if it is regular,
and add more or less before the adjective
if it is irregular.
e.g.
India is bigger than the Philippines.
Johanna is more beautiful than Clarisse.
Create your own sentences using the

comparative degree.
Emeralds are more expensive than
Bravo! Now, let’s proceed to the pearls.
superlative degree. Here, we are Grapes are sweeter than apples.
comparing three or more nouns and
pronouns. To use the superlative degree,
add the suffix –est to the adjective if it is
regular, and add most or least before the
adjective if it is irregular.
e.g.
Russia is the biggest country in Asia.
Alice is the most beautiful girl at school.
Create your own sentences using the

superlative degree.
Diamonds are the most expensive

precious stones in the world.
The mango is the sweetest fruit in his
Awesome! Now, let’s recap. garden.
How many degrees of comparison are
used in the English language?
And what are these? Three, sir.
Very good. Positive degree, comparative degree,

and superlative degree, sir.
d. Reflection
Now let’s go back to the story. Among

the three brothers, who do you think had
a better fate? Why?
The youngest brother, sir. He lived a
long life and he was able to pass on his
gift from Death to his son.
Now, why do you think did the eldest
brother suffer a tragic ending?
He was too boastful, sir.
Very good. How about the second
brother? Why did he had a bad fate?
He was too selfish, sir.
Indeed. What was the youngest brother’s
edge over his two elder brothers?
The youngest brother was a humble
man, sir. He was also wise. He did not
Very good. Class, the value of humility is let his victory take over his judgment.
something that’s worth having. We need
to stay humble despite of having the
things that other people would want to
have. As what most people say, “Keep
your feet on the ground when your head
is in the clouds.”
Have you fully understood the story,

class?
Yes, sir.
Well, I am pleased to hear that.
e. Application
Now class, I have here a colourful paper

cabbage. When you hear the music
playing, you will pass this cabbage to the
person sitting next to you, and so on, and
so forth. When the music stops, the
person holding the cabbage must peel of
one of its leaves. On the leaf, there is an
adjective written and a corresponding
degree of comparison. The person
holding the cabbage must then use the
adjective in a sentence with the
corresponding degree of comparison.
After doing so, the music will play again
and you will pass the cabbage again.
Understood?
Yes, sir!
(Teacher plays music.)
(Students pass the cabbage.)
Great job, guys!
Now, I want to group you in groups of
four. Each group must assign a team
leader. All leaders must then come here
in front to pick your task. Understood?
Yes, sir.
DIFFERENTIATED TASKS:
1. Perform a short role play showing the

importance of humility.
2. Create a poem about humility and
show it through a speech choir.
3. Write a song or a jingle about
humility and perform it in front.
Here are the rubrics for the assessment

of your performances:
5 4 3
Excellent Has minor Needs
Mastery errors improvement
Outstanding Has few Needs
Delivery errors improvement
Stage Flawless Has some Needs
Presence mistakes improvement
I will give you five minutes to prepare

for your performance. After that, we (Students prepare for their
shall then see you perform here in front. performance.)
Are you ready to perform? (Students perform.)
Remarkable performances! Give

yourselves a big round of applause. (Students applaud.)
f. Evaluation
Class, kindly get one-fourth sheet of

paper and answer this question briefly:
If you were in the same situation with the

three brothers, what would you ask from
Death and why?
g. Assignment
On a clean piece of whole paper, write

your own story showing the importance
of humility. Make sure to use the degrees
of comparison.
