Yes, Sir.
Can you still recall the rules of
parallelism?

Yes, Sir!
Great! Anyone who can enumerate

structure with elements
joined by coordinating
conjunction.

 Motivation

Class, can you imagine the world without

short stories, novels, poems, essays,
movies and songs?

No, Sir!
Why do you say so? What do you think
life would be?

Stories, such as short

stories, novels,
poems, essays,
movies, and songs,
have been an
important part of
human culture for
thousands of years.
They help us
understand ourselves
 and others, express
our emotions, and
explore the world
around us. Without
stories, we would
lose much of our
shared cultural
heritage and the tools
we use to make
sense of the world. A

That’s great! Now what do you think is
literature?
Literature refers to
written or spoken works
of art, such as poetry,
novels, short stories,
essays, and plays, that
are valued for their
artistic or emotional
appeal.
That’s correct! Can you give me some
examples of literature?
Examples of literature
include famous novels
like "To Kill a
Mockingbird" by Harper
Lee or "The Great
Gatsby" by F. Scott
Fitzgerald, classic
poems like "The Raven"
by Edgar Allan Poe, and
popular movies like
"The Lord of the Rings."
Good examples! Now what are the two
major classifications of literature?

The two major

classifications of
literature are fiction and
nonfiction. Fiction refers
to stories that are not
true, while nonfiction
refers to writing that is
Exactly! based on facts.
Literature can be expressed through
written or spoken works, such as novels,
poems, short stories, essays, and plays.
It is valued for its artistic or emotional
appeal and can be classified into two
major types: fiction and nonfiction.
Fiction refers to imaginative works that
are not based on real events, while
nonfiction is writing that is based on facts
and real-life experiences. Examples of
literature include famous novels, classic
poems, and popular movies that are
appreciated for their artistic value and
emotional impact.

Moving on, what do you think is heritage,

class?
Sir, heritage refers to
the cultural or historical
traditions, values, and
artifacts that are passed
down from one
generation to the next.
That’s right. How about diverse
background?
Diverse background
refers to the unique
cultural, ethnic, or racial
background of an
individual or group of
Good definitions! With that said, why do people.
you think is literature a mirror of shared
heritage of people of people with diverse
background?

Literature serves as a
mirror of the shared
heritage of people with
diverse backgrounds
because it allows
individuals from
different cultures and
backgrounds to express
their experiences and
perspectives in a way
that can be understood
by others. By reading
literature from different
cultures and
backgrounds, we can
gain a greater
appreciation for the
diversity of human

people with diverse backgrounds
because it provides a platform for
individuals to express their experiences,
beliefs, and values.

In essence, literature can serve as a

powerful tool for bridging cultural gaps
and promoting cross-cultural
understanding. By representing diverse
cultural perspectives and experiences,
literature can help us to recognize and
appreciate the shared heritage of people
from diverse backgrounds.

Having said that, why is it important for

us to learn that literature reflects shared
heritage of people with diverse
background?

It is important for us to
learn that literature

heritage of people with

because it helps us to

different cultures and backgrounds, we
can gain a greater understanding of the
similarities and differences that exist
among people from different parts of the
world. This can help to promote
empathy, understanding, and respect for
cultural diversity.

Are there questions or clarifications

regarding our topic, class?

diverse literature, we can also cultivate
important values such as empathy,
understanding, and respect for cultural
diversity. Reading stories from different
cultures can help us develop a better
appreciation for the complexity and
richness of the human experience. By
learning about different cultures through
literature, we can also develop a greater
sense of unity and shared humanity,
while also fostering a respect for cultural
diversity.

Do you understand what I am trying to

say, class?
Yes, Sir.
