Subject: English

Grade Level: Grade 8

Objective: Identify and use signals that indicate coherence

Learning within and across curriculum:

- Within:

1) Mathematics - Identifying patterns in mathematical equations can help students


understand coherence in English writing.

2) Science - Recognizing cause and effect relationships in scientific experiments can


be analogous to coherence in English texts.

3) History - Understanding the chronological order of historical events can aid in


identifying coherence in narratives.

- Across:

1) Physical Education - Sequencing movements in a dance routine can be related to


identifying coherence in writing.

2) Home Economics - Following a recipe step-by-step can help students grasp the
concept of coherence in instructions.

3) Music - Analyzing the structure of a musical piece can parallel identifying


coherence in written compositions.

ELICIT:

Teaching Strategy: Brainstorming

Instructional Materials: None

Anecdote 1: Sharing traditional Filipino folktales that follow a coherent storytelling


structure.
Anecdote 2: Discussing how Filipino proverbs flow logically to convey wisdom
succinctly.

ENGAGE:

Teaching Strategy: Role-Playing

Instructional Materials: None

1) Idea: Have students act out a scene from a play with missing coherence signals,
and let their classmates identify and correct them.

2) Idea: Conduct a group discussion on a real-life scenario where coherence signals


are crucial for effective communication.

EXPLORE:

Activity 1: Coherence Connections

Teaching Strategy: Cooperative Learning

Materials: Texts with varying levels of coherence

Significance: To practice identifying coherence signals in different writing styles.

Instructions:

1) Read the provided texts individually.

2) Discuss with your group to identify coherence signals.

3) Present your findings to the class.


Rubric:

- Accuracy of identified signals - 15 pts.

- Collaboration within the group - 10 pts.

- Clarity in presentation - 10 pts.

Assessment Questions:

1) What are some common coherence signals found in the texts?

2) How did your group approach identifying coherence in the texts?

3) Why is understanding coherence important in effective writing?

Activity 2: Signal Scavenger Hunt

Teaching Strategy: Experiential Learning

Materials: Signal cards hidden around the classroom

Significance: To engage students in a fun activity while reinforcing coherence


signals.

Instructions:

1) Search for signal cards hidden in the room.

2) Match each signal to its corresponding coherence function.

3) Discuss the importance of each signal in writing.

Rubric:

- Speed and accuracy in matching - 15 pts.

- Participation in the discussion - 10 pts.

- Understanding of signal importance - 10 pts.


Assessment Questions:

1) How did the scavenger hunt activity help you understand coherence signals
better?

2) Which signal did you find most challenging to match, and why?

3) How can you apply the knowledge of coherence signals in your own writing?

Inclusive Activity 3: Coherence Charades

Teaching Strategy: Games and Gamification

Materials: None

Significance: To promote inclusivity by engaging students in a game that requires


no additional resources.

Instructions:

1) Act out a coherence signal without speaking.

2) Have classmates guess the signal being portrayed.

3) Discuss the importance of the identified signal in maintaining coherence.

Rubric:

- Accuracy of signal portrayal - 15 pts.

- Participation in guessing - 10 pts.

- Contribution to the discussion - 10 pts.

Assessment Questions:

1) How did non-verbal communication in the game help in understanding coherence


signals?

2) Which signal was the most challenging to act out, and why?

3) How can you apply the concept of coherence signals in everyday conversations?
EXPLAIN:

Activity 1 - The teacher will explain the concept of coherence using examples from
the students' identified signals, encouraging interactive discussions to reinforce
understanding.

Activity 2 - Through a guided exercise, the teacher will demonstrate how coherence
signals impact the overall clarity and organization of a piece of writing.

Activity 3 - Students will be guided in a group activity to create a coherent narrative


using various coherence signals, with the teacher providing feedback and guidance
throughout the process.
