A.
One Saturday morning, Tipoy woke up late and was told by his mother to go to
the grocery to buy some goodies. On his way to the grocery store, he met his
friend Emman who is playing a mobile game.
“I’m going to Kikin’s Store to buy bread and drinks,” Tipoy answered.
“Look! My mother bought me a new cell phone”, Emman proudly shows his new
cell phone to him.
Tipoy was so amazed at the new gadget of his friend. He tried the mobile game
and enjoyed playing it. After a couple of minutes, he realized that his mother was
waiting for him. He hurriedly went to the grocery store and got the goodies he
needs to buy. When he was about to pay the bills, he checked his pocket and
found it empty. He realized that he had lost the money and felt scared at that
moment. He thought of losing the money while playing the mobile game with his
friend Emman. He ran as fast as he could to the area where they played mobile
games. He asked his friend if he saw the money he was looking for.
Emman told him that he never saw it. He advised him instead to go home and tell
his mother the truth.
Tipoy went home empty-handed. He went to his mother with tears and
told her what had happened. His mother smiled at him calmly and said, “Next
time you need to have the presence of mind. You went to the grocery store without
asking for money from me.”. Tipoy sighed and felt relieved. He hugged his mother
with a smile on his face.

What Is It
Summarizing Tricks
In summarizing text, we can look at text features, vocabulary, and topic
sentence to identify the most important details of the text.
1. Observe text features.
Text features such as titles, subtitles, texture/size, color, margin notes, etc.
are clues to a text’s most important information --- information you may
want to include in your summary.

Air pollution may be due to a lot of factors. First, air can be polluted by harmful
gases from vehicles, factory gas emissions, and outflow from natural disasters such
as volcanic eruption or forest fires. These factors are largely influenced by
industrialization and consumerism evident in urbanized towns and cities with zero
to minimal government supervision and regulation. Also, people’s lack of concern to
the environment has paved way for capitalists to overuse our natural resources
such as trees that could have cleaned the air. Lastly, the government’s seemingly
lack of accountability in terms of reinforcing law that should have protected the air
can also be major factor. While these may suggest hopelessness for a clean air in
the future, we still hope awareness of the need for cleaner air turn into action.

Information may come from different sources and are presented in various
text types. For us to understand better the core message of such information, we
need to summarize the text we have read.
Summarizing is a powerful reading and writing strategy. It increases
comprehension and retention of information. When you summarize, you restate the
most important information of a text, using your own words.
There are strategies/tricks that will help us summarize information such as
observing text features, taking note of the highlighted vocabulary list, knowing the
topic sentence, using reporter’s notes (Who? What? Where? When? Why? How?),
and utilizing graphic organizers.
What I Can Do
Read and understand the text below. After reading, share the useful
information to the members of your family.

Every year the Philippines experiences tropical cyclones or typhoons that
resulted in damage to properties and lives. It is of utmost importance that the
people should have enough knowledge on what to do before, during, and after
the typhoon.
Before the typhoon hits your place, watch for weather updates on your
television, radio, or internet. Familiarize yourself with the Barangay’s evacuation
plan. Keep your emergency kit accessible and follow the evacuation order by the
community.
During the typhoon, stay in your home or evacuation center and keep
watch for updates. Turn off the main switch for utilities like water and
electricity. Have a flashlight in hand and keep away from possible dangers like
glass windows.
After the typhoon, wait for the announcements about your area’s safety.
Stay away from danger such as damaged power lines, fallen trees, and damaged
structures. Make sure that there are no wet or submerged appliances or outlets
before turning on the electricity. Lastly, check the possible breeding places for
mosquitos such as tires, cans, or pots, and get rid of rainwater.

One dark night, a voice as cold as the pouring rain woke Salud up from a
deep slumber. The voice that reverberated through the thick woods was calling
her. Though she was nervous, she calmed herself and followed the voice that was
strange to her. Her feet carried her into a dense forest. Salud was astonished at
the sight of fairies partying in the shade of a large tree. She could not believe it.
She saw various tools made of gold. The surroundings were also adorned with
beautiful pearls and diamonds. The place was surrounded by a variety of flowers.
Salud was surprised when someone had suddenly grabbed her shoulder.
She was amazed to see a very handsome creature with a charming smile. He gave
her a glass of drink and brought her in front of the crowd. Salud could not believe
what was happening. All of a sudden, the fairies danced to the accompaniment of
entertaining music. She was surprised when a trumpet had sounded as if a
coronation was about to take place. Unexpectedly, a fairy appeared from nowhere
carrying a crown. The fairy happily placed the crown on Salud's head. After the
crowning, the crowd shouted, "Long live the Queen! Long live the Queen!"
Salud's happiness was overflowing when suddenly she felt pain on her side.
She recognized that someone was pinching her. She opened her eyes widely and
saw her mother’s face. She then realized that she was just dreaming.

"I am helping to lay up food for the winter," said the Ant, "I think you
should be doing the same."
"Why worry about the winter?" the grasshopper said, "We have plenty of
food now."
The ant was tired from his work, and he thought it would be fun to join
the grasshopper. But he went on his way and continue working until he had
filled his nest with corn.
Winter came as it always does, and the grasshopper had no more food to
eat. He was dying of hunger while the ants were eating every day from the corn
they had stored away. Then the grasshopper knew that it is best to prepare for
the days ahead.
