 Present an informational text through power point.
Listen carefully, I will read to you an informational text about climate change. Be ready to give
the summary of the text.

Climate includes patterns of temperature, precipitation, humidity, wind, and seasons.

Climate change affects more than just a change in the weather; it refers to seasonal
changes over a long period of time. These climate patterns play a fundamental role in shaping
natural ecosystems, and the human economies and cultures that depend on them. Because so
many systems are tied to climate, a change in climate can affect many related aspects of where and
how people, plants and animals live, such as food production, availability and use of water, and
health risks. For example, a change in the usual timing of rains or temperatures can affect when
plants bloom and set fruit, when insects hatch or when streams are at their fullest. This can affect
historically synchronized pollination of crops, food for migrating birds, spawning of fish, water
supplies for drinking and irrigation, forest health and more.

Noting the significant details of the informational text .

Giving the summary of the selection heard.

1. What is the selection about?

2. In your own words, what is climate change?

8. What is the summary of the selection?

(With the use of the questions, teacher will write some of the answers in the flow chart diagram
that will help later in summarizing the information given.)

Based from the informational text heard, let us try to summarize it but before that let us define
first what is summary and how can we summarize?

D. Discussing new concepts and practicing new skills no.1 (Modeling)

What is summary?

It is a record in a reader’s own words that gives the main points of a piece of writing. It is
also possible to summarize something that you have heard, such as a lecture, or something that
you have seen and heard, such as a movie.

A summary omits details and does not include the reader’s interpretation of the original.

When summarizing a text heard, you need to remember the following:

1. Listen to and understand the text carefully.

2. Think about the purpose of the text. Ask what the author’s purpose is in speaking the text?

3. Select the relevant information.

4. Find the main ideas-what is important.

5. Change the structure of the text.

6. Rewrite the main ideas in complete sentences and in your own words.

7. Check your work.

A while ago, I already write some information about the text heard based on how you
answer the comprehension questions. With the use of the information let us summarize the
selection.
 Possible Outcome:

Summary:

Climate change is not just the change in the weather but the seasonal changes over a
long period of time. It can affect how people, plants and animal live like their food production, the
use of the water and health risk. This can affect historically synchronized pollination of crops, food
for migrating birds, spawning of fish, water supplies for drinking and irrigation, forest health and
more.

What do you think is the title of the informational text heard?

Giving the title is one way of summarizing the main idea of the information given.

Listen as I read a passage then choose among the choices the summary of the passage.

It started when they got to the bears. Peter felt tired and his stomach hurt. He
dragged himself over to see the elephants, which were eating from a stack of hay.
Normally, the elephants were his favorite. Without much interest, Peter followed his

down and rest. Even the lions and tigers did not interest him now.

Cats are affectionate, cuddly, and independent. Unlike dogs, cats can stay on their own if
you go away overnight. They do not need to be walked, and can monitor their own food so they

someone wants to have a pet, a cat is a great choice!

B. Dogs are a lot of work.

Many people buy lottery tickets, but not many win. Even fewer give away their prize. Paul
Dela Cruz, a fast food assistant manager, won Ph 5,000,000.00 in the state lottery and decided
to give the money to a charity that adopts homeless and abandoned children. The charity
director could not believe Paul’s generosity. Paul didn’t think it was any big deal. “The kids need
it more than I do,” he said.

(Additional question to show numeracy skills: If Paul will donate in 5 charities using the Ph
5,000,000.00 that he won in the lottery, how much money will each charity receive?)

Coronaviruses (CoV) are a large family of viruses that cause illness ranging from the common cold
to more severe diseases such as Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS-CoV) and Severe Acute
Respiratory Syndrome (SARS-CoV). A novel coronavirus (nCoV) is a new strain that has not been
previously identified in humans.  

Coronaviruses are zoonotic, meaning they are transmitted between animals and people.

Common signs of infection include respiratory symptoms, fever, cough, shortness of breath and
breathing difficulties. In more severe cases, infection can cause pneumonia, severe acute respiratory
syndrome, kidney failure and even death. 

Standard recommendations to prevent infection spread include regular hand washing, covering
mouth and nose when coughing and sneezing, thoroughly cooking meat and eggs. Avoid close contact
with anyone showing symptoms of respiratory illness such as coughing and sneezing.

V. Assignment
