DISCUSSION
Advance or graphic organizers are visual displays of key content information to facilitate
understanding of ideas. Using them to present information helps construct knowledge for a
better understanding of a text. Using diagrams is among the most common ways of organizing
ideas and concepts. Among them are the Venn Diagram and Cause and Effect Diagram.
Venn Diagram is commonly used in comparing and contrasting two or more ideas, concepts,
characters, places or things. This is useful in showing similarities and differences between or
among ideas or concepts presented. It uses circles where the overlapping portion contains the
similarities while those outside the overlapping section are the differences.

Differences Differences S
Similar -
ities
Cause and Effect Diagram/ Organizer is used to illustrate cause and effect relationships. It is
used to show why something happens or explain the effects of something. It can be presented
using different shapes and the connection between ideas which can be indicated by the use of
lines and arrows. There are a lot of creative ways in illustrating cause and effect relationships
depending on the concepts and ideas involved. Below are some examples.

B. Read the paragraph and make your own cause and effect diagram based on the text.
With Covid-19 pandemic becoming a threat to human existence, major changes have
occurred in people’s daily lives. Face masks and sanitizers became a necessity. Economic
activities slowed down. Entertainment and tourism came to a halt. Public transportation
suspended its operation.
Education sector delayed the opening of the school year. With this new
situation, online activities have become a trend. Having online meetings and conferences is
now a better option. With these changes, even when this crisis is over, people’s lives will
never be the same again.

At the end of this lesson you are expected to:
a. determine the effects of textual aids like timeline in understanding a text;
b. illustrate concepts and ideas from a text using textual aids; and
c. appreciate the importance of the textual aids in understanding a text.
✔ A Venn Diagram
❖ helps the reader make a comparison and contrast about two or more things or
ideas.
❖ illustrate relationships between and among objects that share something in
common.
✔ Cause and Effect Diagram, on the other hand, will help you illustrate the relationship
on why something happens or visually explains the effect of something.
MOTIVATION
Oftentimes, reading long text about history, a long process or even a story needs time for you to
figure out everything you have read. Today, you are going to learn about the use of another
graphic organizer which will help you understand what you are reading. Before going into the
details of this graphic organizer, read first the text below.
Sungka (pronounced SOONG-kah) is a game played on a solid wooden block with two
rows of seven circular holes and two large holes at both ends called "head".
The game begins with 49 game pieces (shells, marbles, pebbles or seeds) equally distributed
to alternate holes - seven pieces in every other hole – except "heads" which remain empty.
Sungka requires two players. Each player controls the seven holes on his side of the board
and owns the "head" to his right. The goal is to accumulate as many pieces in your own
"head".
The first player removes all pieces from the hole on the extreme left of his side. He then
distributes them anti-clockwise --- one in each hole to the right of that hole --- omitting an
opponent's "head" but not a player's own "head".
If the last piece falls into an occupied hole then all the pieces are removed from that
hole, and are distributed in the same way (to the right of that hole) in another round. This
player's (current) turn ends when the last piece falls into an empty hole on the opponent's
side.
If the last piece distributed falls into a player's own "head" then ... ... the player earns
another turn, which can begin at any of the seven holes on his side.
If the last piece distributed falls into an empty hole on his side then ... ... the player
captures all the pieces in the hole directly across from this one, on the opponent's side and
put them (plus the last piece distributed) in his own "head". If the opposing hole is empty, no
pieces are captured.
The other player chooses which hole he wishes to start from, removes the pieces and
distributes them - one in each hole to the right of that chosen hole. If a player has no pieces
on his side of the board when it is his turn, then he must pass.
The game ends when no pieces are left in any hole on both sides of the board.
The players now count the number of pieces in their own "head" and see who has won.
This game (with variations) is also played in other Southeast Asian countries such as
Indonesia and Malaysia where it is known as "Congkak".

After reading the text, answer the following comprehension questions. This will help you fill in
the data needed to accomplish the flow chart and arrange the process in chronological order.
Write your answer on a separate sheet of paper.
1. What is the first step to start the game?

What is a Timeline?
A timeline is a type of graphic organizer that shows specific events in sequence, usually with
dates, in a linear fashion.
Timelines are particularly useful for studying or reviewing history, because the timeline will
display major events over a period of time.
Timeline also helps you:

Activity 2.2
Read the paragraph below.
History of South Cotabato, Philippines
Centuries ago, the area that would be South Cotabato was sparsely
inhabited by Malay Pioneers which later evolved into various ethnic groupings that still exist in the province today.
Settlers, who would lay the foundation of what would become a progressive
province, started trooping down in 1914. The significant thrust occurred during the term of President Quezon in the
late 30’s. The first wave of settlers that time was led by Gen. Paulino Santos, a man whose undaunted pioneering spirit
inspired thousands. After World War II, the final exodus of settlers from Luzon and the Visayas poured into the virgin
land of promise. In the early 60’s as population, trade and industries grew in this southern part of Cotabato, a clamor
for local self-governance arose. Thus, on July 18, 1966, South Cotabato was
coming in of regional offices in the area in consonance with EO 429 dated October 12, 1990 issued by President
Corazon C. Aquino and EO No. 36 dated September 19, 2001 issued by President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo, provide for
the reorganization of the new Administrative Region in Mindanao and having the city of Koronadal as the regional
center of Region XII.
In only three decades since its provincehood, South Cotabato has already surpassed dozens of provinces established
half a century ahead in almost every aspect of development. In a short span, it becomes one of the leading provinces in
Mindanao. What it got to show today are vivid results of human synergy and the richness of its resources.

MOTIVATION
Activity 3.1
Read the article entitled “Love and Time” by Angelo Clemen. Take note of the different
keywords, ideas, and/or concepts you encounter in the selection. Then follow the given steps to
complete the activity. (See Worksheet 3.1)
Yet, Love did not wish to flee quickly. There was so much to do. But as the clouds darkened,
Love realized it was time to leave. Alas, there were no boats to spare. Love looked around with
hope.
Just then Prosperity passed by in a luxurious boat. Love shouted, “Prosperity, could you
please take me in your boat?”
“No,” replied Prosperity, “my boat is full of precious possessions, gold and silver. There is
no place for you.”
A little later Vanity came by in a beautiful boat. Again, Love shouted,
“Could you help me, Vanity? I am stranded and need a lift. Please take me with you.”
Vanity responded haughtily, “No, I cannot take you with me. My boat will get soiled with
your muddy feet.”
Sorrow passed by after some time. Again, Love asked for help. But it was to no avail. “No, I
cannot take you with me. I am so sad. I want to be by myself.” When Happiness passed by a
few minutes later, Love again called for help. But
Happiness was so happy that it did not look around, hardly concerned about anyone.
Love was growing restless and dejected. Just then somebody called out,
“Come Love, I will take you with me.” Love did not know who was being so magnanimous, do
you know who so generously gave me a lift just when no one
else wished to help?”
Knowledge smiled, “Oh, that was Time.”
“And why would Time stop to pick me and take me to safety?” Love wondered.
Knowledge smiled with deep wisdom and replied, “Because only Time knows your true
greatness and what you are capable of. Only Love can bring peace and great happiness in this
world.”
● Write the name of the main character or protagonist at the center circle.
● On the numbered circle, jot down the names of other characters and their responses when
Love called them for help.
● Connect each numbered circle with an arrow to the center circle.

DISCUSSION
A concept map is a visual representation of knowledge. It shows concepts and ideas and the
relationships among them are usually connected by arrows. It was developed by Joseph D.
Novak and his research team in the 1970’s as a means of representing the emerging science
knowledge of students.
Concept map helps visual learners grasp the material. It helps you to see relationships
between ideas and concepts. It also helps you doing memory recall, clarify and structure ideas.
Concept map is created by writing key words enclosed in shapes such as circles, boxes,
triangles, etc. and drawing arrows between the ideas that are related the n adding short
explanation to concepts that are related.

3. Bar Graph
It is a chart that uses bars to show comparisons between categories of information. The bars
can be either horizontal or vertical. A bar graph will have two axes. One axis will describe the
types of categories being compared, and the other will have numerical values that represent the
values of the data. It is useful for comparing facts. The bars provide a visual display for
comparing quantities in different categories. Bar graphs help us to see relationships quickly.
Another name for a bar graph is a bar chart.
