today?” ma’am!”
5. Review of the previous lesson
“Before we start our discussion, what was our “Ma’am, our topic yesterday is all about ___________.
previous lesson yesterday?”

B. Lesson Proper

Activity (Think)

“Before we start our new lesson, let’s play a


game first which is entitled, “Favor/Not Favor.”

“In this game, I have here 5 sets of statements


and you will tell me if you are in favor of it by
giving me a thumbs up and if you are not in favor,
you will make a X sign using your arms.”

“Do you understand?”

1. Chocolate is the best flavor in ice cream. (Student’s answer may vary.)
2. Mathematics is an easy subject.
3. Dogs are the cutest thing in the world.
4. All tears are formed through sadness.

Analysis (Discuss)

“Did you enjoy our game?

“Okay class, what have you observed in our “I observed that we all don’t agree with a certain thing.”
game?”

“Very good!”
“Why do you think we don’t agree with others “because we have different interests, characteristics
ideas?” and personalities. And also, no two individuals are the
same.”

“Nice answer!”
Discussion

“In real life, most of the people agree with others


ideas, but some disapprove with them.”

“Have you experienced talking to others and “Yes, Ma’am!”


there’s a certain thing she said that you don’t
agree of?”

“How do you tell them that you don’t approve of “I tell them straight forward.”
their opinion or ideas?”

“It is okay to share your different thoughts with


each other but, you have to be careful not offend
them.”
“In short, you have to be sensitive with the choice
of words and careful of your approach to avoid
conflicts.”

“There are ways to disagree politely without


hurting others feelings.”

“As a friendly reminder, here are four (4) key tips


for disagreeing with someone -- respectfully, of
course.”
1. Acknowledge the other person’s
opinion before you disagree.

“Make sure you make it clear that you understand


what the other person is saying and that it is a
valid argument before you disagree. This shows
you are listening to the other person and makes
your argument stronger.”

“To do this, you can use phrases such as:

 “I see what you’re saying but…”


 “I understand where you’re coming from,
but…”
 “That’s a valid point, but…”

Ex. “That’s a valid point, but I also want to share


my ideas for us to create a successful and better
decision.”

2. Use an apology to introduce your


disagreement.
“This is another way of making your
disagreement more polite but can soften the
impact of your argument.”

For example:

“I’m sorry but I disagree with you about this.”

“Don’t just say the other person is wrong.


Instead, add a reason why another idea may be
correct. It hurts to be told you are wrong, but
finding out something new and useful is a more
positive experience, even if you don’t agree with
the answer.”

3. Pretend to be unsure about agreeing.

“This is a common way English speakers


disagree.”

“Expressions like
 “I’m not sure I agree with you about this”
 “I don’t think I have the same opinion as
you”
really mean ‘I don’t agree’”

4. Agree to disagree.

“This is a useful way to end an argument where


you know neither person will ever agree.”

“For example, when you are arguing about


politics or even football teams. When you say
“Let’s agree to disagree,” you acknowledge that
you will never agree with the other person on that
particular topic and that you can move on to
discussing other issues instead.

Abstraction

To sum up the discussion:


1. What are the ways to disagree politely? “First is to Acknowledge the other person’s opinion
before you disagree, second, Use an apology to
introduce your disagreement, third, Pretend to be
unsure about agreeing, and last, Agree to disagree.”

2. What will you do if someone rudely “I will politely tell them that there’s no need to be rude
disagrees with your ideas? because I am just sharing my thoughts and also, I’ll tell
them to be sensitive with the choice of words.”

Application

“Class, I think everybody already knows our topic


for today, let us have an activity.”

“For today, I will be grouping you into four. You


are going to express disagreement through:

GROUP 1 – Writing a letter (technology)


GROUP 2 – Mime (food)
GROUP 3 – Dancing (arguing about
something)
GROUP 4 – Role playing (sports)

“For evaluation of your works, here is our criteria


in grading:

Presentation 10 points
Cooperation 5 points
Uniqueness 5 points
Total: 20 points

C. Evaluation

“For our last activity, _____, kindly read the


directions.”

Directions: Identify whether the statements are in a


polite or rude way. Write P if the statement politely
disagrees and R if the statement rudely disagrees.

_______1. No way. (strong) 1. R


_______2. I totally disagree. 2. R
_______3. No, I’m not sure about that. 3. P
_______4. I’m afraid I disagree; losing weight isn’t as 4. P
simple as that. 5. R
_______5. I can’t believe you are saying that.

D. Agreement

Compose a short script that reflects disagreeing


in a polite way.

“That would be all for today, Goodbye class.”
