C. Lesson Proper GROUP BRAINSTORMING

1. ACTIVITY Now class, before we are going to start our lesson,

let us have another activity. This activity is called
“GROUP BRAINSTORMING”.

TOPIC: How can we make our English class more

interesting?

1. Form groups of eight (8) students. (Students do the task

2. Each group shall receive a chart paper and a given)
marker.
3. Select a leader and a secretary for each group.
4. For every time a member states his or her
suggestion, the secretary writes it down. Afterward,
the team shall decide whether it is a good or a bad
idea. The secretary may circle the good ideas and
cross out the bad ideas.
5. The leader shall narrow down the answers and
share them with the class.

2. ANALYSIS Based on our activity class, how did the process It helps us think
help you in generating ideas? creatively and
encourages us to share
our ideas with all
information and put it in
a list. We open your
mind to whatever that
pops into it.
Great answer! During the prewriting stage, we
often find ourselves with much information from
different sources. You were able to come up with
thoughts and ideas that relates to the topic.

2. How did the process of elimination help you It helps us in selecting

narrow down to the best answers? and organizing all those
ideas and information.
That’s indeed correct! How we select and organize
such information is a crucial decision that brings
about the success or failure in the writing process
that we have to undertake. Therefore, we need to
use some techniques in selecting and organizing
such information. After all, doing so will help us see
the bigger picture that will help hold all our
paragraphs together.

3. What do you call the process that your group did? I think we did brainstorm
our ideas, sir.
That’s correct. What you did is a technique in
selecting and organizing such information called
brainstorming list.

3. ABSTRACTION Brainstorming is an informal way of generating

topics to write about, as well as formulating the
points you can make about your topic. It can be
done at any point in a writing process.

The crucial point about brainstorming is that there

should be no pressure to be brilliant. You should
open your mind to whatever that pops into it.
Brainstorming helps you generate topics and
narrow them down to a few important ideas. It
improves your creative thinking skills and deepens
your understanding of a possible topic.

On a brainstorming list, simply write down all the

words or ideas that come to your mind about a
topic. With this list, you can generate ideas quickly
and recall specific information about a topic.

This lesson today will provide you with some

strategies on how to smarten up your brainstorming
lists.

STEPS ON HOW TO ORGANIZE

INFORMATION THROUGH A
BRAINSTORMING LIST.

1. Think of a general topic.

2. Brainstorm ideas based on the topic and make a
list.
3. Take a look at the list and see which ideas are
related. Use lines, arrows, asterisks, or whatever
works for you to illustrate those connections.

4. Cross out topics that might not generate or add

enough information for writing.

5. Choose two of the remaining topics in your list

and free write about each chosen topic for five
minutes. Freewriting means using a topic as a
triggering subject and writing whatever comes
to mind, whether you associate it with the topic
or not.

You can also make a brainstorming list based

on a thesis statement, the main idea,
argument, or purpose of the writing. List any
word, phrase, or statement that you can think
of that is related to the topic. Do not restrict
yourself to the sequence of ideas.
 EXAMPLES OF BRAINSTORMING LISTS

1. Topic: Should parents choose the course or

career for their children, or should their children
make the choice themselves?

Thesis Statement: Children, not their parents,

should choose their course or career.

✓ They know themselves best.

✓ They know their strengths and weaknesses.
✓ They will be more willing to learn if they are doing
what they want to do.
✓ They are more likely to succeed if they pursue
their dream.
✓ They will look forward to their daily classes or
work.
✓ Gain more confidence
✓ Personal happiness

2. Topic: “Your work is going to fill a large part of

your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to
do what you believe is great work. And the only way
to do great work is to love what you do.” – Steve
Jobs

Thesis statement: Love whatever job you choose

to do.

✓ Know your strengths and weaknesses.

✓ Pursue a dream.
✓ Do what you are good at.
✓ Choose a job where you can use your skills.
✓ Give your best shot.
✓ Respect your work.
✓ Practice, practice, practice.
✓ Always find new ways of loving your work.
✓ Love your work even if it is not your first choice

These related ideas generated through

brainstorming can serve as guide for your Writing.

Now class, let’s have another activity. I will split

4. APPLICATION you into four groups. Each group must complete the
task given.

Using the pictures, follow steps 2-5 in writing a

brainstorming list to come up with a specific writing
topic. Start by filling in the table with elements
related to the general topic, and then follow the
remaining steps. Make sure to come up with the
final topic to write about based on the result of your
brainstorming list. You will be given one point for
following each step (Steps 2-5) and 1 point for
coming up with a final topic. Are my instructions
clear, class? Yes, Sir!
 Possible Topic 1

Final topic: _______________________________

Possible Topic 2

Final topic: _______________________________

You have five minutes to complete your task. One

representative will then share and explain your
answers.

Alright, time’s up!

Excellent job class!

D. Evaluation I believe you already understood our topic very

well. This time class, let’s evaluate your learning.

In a ½ sheet of paper, write down your

answers to the following questions. Your
answers will serve as your thesis statement.
Then, write down five words, phrases, or
sentences related to your thesis statement.

comfort every establishment?
