III. PROCEDURE
A. PRE- READING ACTIVITIES
1. UNLOCKING DIFFICULTIES
Learning is fun through games and different activities. In a game called

“7-Up” the students will be unlocking new words in a fun way. The students will
form a big circle and the teacher will announce the mechanics of the game. Whoever
loses each round will be picking a piece of paper with something written on it and
answer. The teacher will let the students answer the question and proceed with the
game. Whoever answers the question will receive a sticker as a simple prize for
participation.
2. MOTIVATION
To motivate and catch the student’s attention even more, the
teacher will let the students pick some piece of paper inside a box and the pieces of
paper contain questions like “When was the time you felt like giving up?”, “Despite
the challenges life gives you, what is the main reason you are still fighting?” and
“The reason you still live, is it worth it?”, but for those lucky students who will pick
the “Thank you” they will not answer anything. The teacher will call the students
who had picked the questions and let them answer.
3. MOTIVE QUESTION
a) What do you think the main reason people tried giving up but still fights?
B. DURING READING
a) Read Aloud
Directions: The teacher will pick five students to read the poem aloud. Each of the students will
read each stanza of the poem.
“Derailed”
By Nick Joaquin
There comes a time in each of our lives,

wherein we lose track of ourselves and lose sight of our rails.
Where the illuminated road that always seemed to be there, suddenly lost its light, and with it, our
senses that come to a halt.
The senses that gave us our How's and Why's, the force that drives us to get back up every time
we fall down, the feeling that makes us see the light in a pitch-black void.
The eventual flame that was so overwhelming at one point, now seems nothing but a scant flicker
drowning in a sea of gloom.
An everlasting ember that will continue to burn despite all the pouring setbacks, ‘till we pave our
way to a new set of tracks.
C. POST- READING ACTIVITY
1. Engagement Activity
a) How does the poem's description of “losing track of oneself” relates with your
own experiences?
b) When the poem mentions the "force that drives us to get back up every time we
fall down," what memories or feelings does this relates to your experiences?
c) Can you recall a time when the "overwhelming flame" of passion or purpose in
your life felt dimmed?
