III. Methodology
Procedure Teacher’s Activity Student’s Activity
A. Motivation Alright. We will play an activity. I have
some pictures and under them are
jumbled letters, which will be presented
later. Your task is to get the correct word
describing the picture presented.
However, your chance to answer will be
determined by your lucky ducks. The
duck to win the race will have the chance
to answer. Is that clear?
Yes, Sir.
Let’s start.

First photo, let’s see who will answer this


one.

UHRNGE
Okay, Abegail. What does this photo
shows?
Sir, its HUNGER.
Very good, Abegail.

Now, for the next photo.

NQIUTELIYA

Let’s see who will win the duck race.

Oh, El Jhune you will have to answer this


one. What does this photo presents?
Sir, its INEQUALITY.
Very good, El Jhune.

Congratulations for those who answered


the puzzle correctly. Now, I have a
question, what have you noticed in the
two pictures? What do they have in
common?
(A student raises his hand.)

Yes, Vince.
Sir, the two pictures present
social injustice in our society.
Very good, Vince! What do we mean by
social injustice?
Sir, social injustice refers to
inequalities within a society.
Correct! Social Injustice means the
unequal treatment of a group of people
within a society, which results in one
group being at a disadvantaged.
B. Discussion Now, with that understanding of social
injustice in mind, let's dive into how we
can analyze these issues, especially
when we look at literature.

To do that, we need to first understand


Marxism.Let us first define Marxism in
general.
Marxist gets its name form Karl Marx, the
German philosopher who wrote The
Communist Manifesto.

In it, Marx and co-author Friedrich Engels


argue that all of history is about the
struggle between the haves and have-
nots or the bourgeoisie and proletariats.

Now, to further understand the


bourgeoisie and proletariats, let’s
examine this picture.

Who do you think are considered


bourgeoisie?
(A student raises her hand.)
Yes, Leoj.
Sir, the Kings, the priest, the
soldiers, and the rich people.
Correct! Those are the individuals who
belong to the ruling class, and they are
also treated as oppressors.

Why do you think they are labeled as


oppressors, class?
Sir, because they have the
control over things.

Very good! They are also called


oppressors because they manipulate and
control the society.

How about the proletariats? Who do you


think considered as proletariats in the
pyramid?
(A student raises her hand.)

Yes, Wilgrace.
The people at the lowest level of
the pyramid, Sir.
Exactly. They are also called as the
oppressed.

For you class, just by looking to this


photo, why do you think that the people
at the lower level are oppressed? Any
guess?
Sir, based on the photo, they
are carrying those people above
them.

Right! Just by looking at the photo, we


can see that the lower class is really
struggling to support the people above
them. They bear the weight of the upper
classes as they strive to survive and
move forward. If they were to stop
carrying or obeying those above, they
would be overwhelmed and crushed.
This photo clearly symbolizes the
oppression and exploitation described in
Marxist theory.

This photo brings us right into the heart


of Marxist Criticism, which encourages
us to think critically about how power and
money influence relationships between
different social classes present in the
literature.

As we move forward in our discussion,


let's consider how Marxist Criticism helps
us examine not just what happens in
society, but also how these power
struggles are portrayed in literature.
C. Application I will present scenes from a film and a
question will follow. Student who will be
able to answer the question will receive
points. Let’s start.

SCENE 1 PLAYS (Titanic Movie trailer)


How does the ship can be seen as a
Marxist symbol?
(A student answers the
questions.)

SCENE 2 PLAYS
How do the First Class passengers act
toward the Third Class passengers? How
do they treat them differently?
(A student answers the
questions.)

SCENE 3 PLAYS
What happened to the Third-Class
passengers during the disaster? How did
the class system affect who had access
to lifeboats, food, or safety?

(A student answers the


questions.)

D. Generalization Great, class for answering the questions.


Now I will ask question if you really
understand what we have discuss this
morning.

1.What did you learn about social class


in Titanic?
(A student answers the
questions.)

2.How did the class differences play out


during the sinking? What does this tell us
about social injustice?
(A student answers the
questions.)
