4. Review

Before we start our lesson for today, let

us have a review of our previous topic.

Can anyone please share what our topic

was yesterday? (The students will give information about
the previous topic.)

That’s correct!

For us to better understand the previous

lesson, I will play a video about it.

(The teacher will play a video from

Youtube.com) (Students will watch the video.)

From the video, what are the ideas

showed and told to you? Sir, the video showed us the projects done
by a foreign company in Cebu,
Philippines, and how they helped the
community be participatory in local
improvements.

That’s right.

There are several projects done by the

foreign company for the community of
Borbon; can you please identify some of
those projects?
Sir, projects on access roads, drainage
systems, healthcare, and education
projects for children.
All your answers are correct.

Also, in the video, several values were

shared, such as people empowerment,
where women were allowed to
participate in decision-making for
community development, as well as
participation and community
involvement, where they were the ones
deciding what was beneficial for their
community.
B. Motivation

For today, we will have a new topic that

is still connected to the previous lesson.
First, look at these pictures.

Can anyone please describe what are the

events presented in those pictures?

Those are correct. Sir, the pictures represented meetings,

conferences, and planning.
Do you think the events in the pictures
involve the use of a community action plan?
Support your answer.

Yes, Sir. These pictures show that they

explaining.
These pictures represented how a
 community action plan was formulated and
planned. It takes time, effort, and money to
produce and implement a successful
community action plan.

C. Presentation of the Lesson

Today, we are going to tackle a new

topic which is the community action
plan, and its elements.

D. Development of the Lesson

First, when you hear the word PLAN,

what comes to your mind? Sir, intention, decision, and proposal

Those are right.

A plan is a detailed proposal for doing or

achieving something. Also, it is an
intention or decision about something.

Since you already learned what a

community action is, now what is a
community action plan? Sir, a community action plan is a plan
describes what the community wants to
achieve, what activities are required
during specified time period, what
resources (money, people and materials)
are needed to be successful.

That is correct!

When we say Community Action Plan is

a list of clear objectives, concerns,
issues, and strategies that a community
puts together to directly address and
resolve.

How about in your community? Are

there issues or concerns that need to be (Students will share about their
resolved or addressed now? community’s issues and concerns.)

What do you think is the best possible

solution for those issues and concerns? (Students will give their ideas and
possible solutions for the issues and
concerns.)
Now, we’re done defining Community
Action Plan, so it’s time for us to learn
the Elements of an Action Plan.

These are the six [6] essential or

characteristics of an Action Plan.

Can you read the definition of the first

element? Students raised their hands:
1. Specific - Objective s need to be
clear and detailed.
Why do you think an action plan must
be specific?
Sir, an action plant must be specific so
that you can address and resolve the
issues and concerns directly.

Can you please read the definition of the

second element?
2. Measurable – outcomes must be
what the people really want.
Outcomes should produce tangible
rewards.
Thank you. An action plan must be
measurable to ensure there will be
evidence that can be tracked to monitor
progress.

What do you mean by tangible rewards?

Sir, tangible rewards are having visible,

concrete, and easily measurable
That is right! characteristics.

Can you please read the definition of the

third element?

3. Agreeable – for the citizens to

action plan must be something that

be agreeable?

Sir, it should be agreeable because it is a

plan done by the community, so everyone
That’s correct. should benefit from it.

It is a plan where everyone shared their

ideas and efforts to formulate it, so
everyone in the community should at
least benefit from the outcomes.

Please read the fourth element of an

action plan.

4. Realistic - the needed resources

Sir, an action plan must be time-specific

Each stage must be time-specified to

monitor the progress of the action plan
and check if the plan is still achieving its
goals or not.

We have here the last element of an

action, please read.

6. Supportive back-up – a helping

Moreover, the details of what kind of

stated on what kind of support you can
give. Same as with specific, all the help
and solution that the plan can offer must
be clearly written.

For you to have a glance of constructing

an action plan, here is a rough template
 of simple community action plan.

(See attached paper for clearer sample

simple community action plan.)

Is there any question about the topic?

None, Sir.

E. Group Activity

Since you don’t have any questions, now

we will have a group activity.

Instructions:
The class will be divided into four [4]
groups. Select a representative for each
group. Each group will present a rough
template for a simple community action
plan with two [2] solutions. You will be
given five [5] minutes to construct and
two [2] minutes to present your work.

Each group will be graded according to

this rubric:

(See attached rubrics for group

presentation.)

Are we clear with the instructions? Yes, Sir.

If you have no more questions, you may (Students are now constructing their own

F. Presentation
 The time is up. Each group will be given
two [2] minutes to present your work.

(The fourth group will present their
Very good! work.)

G. Teacher’s Input

Overall, everyone marvelously presented

their work. Good job to everyone.

H. Generalization

Let us have a review of our discussion

today.

What is a Community Action Plan? Students raised their hands:

A Community Action Plan is a list of
clear objectives, concerns, issues, and
strategies that a community puts together
to directly address and resolve.

Very good!

What are the six [6] elements of an Students raised their hands:
Action Plan? 1. Specific
2. Measurable
3. Agreeable
4. Realistic
5. Time-specific
6. Supportive back-up

Those are all correct.

A community action plan is a specified

list of objectives, measurable strategies,
 agreeable and realistic solutions, time-
specified stages of accomplishment, and
supportive back-up that is clearly stated.

Do we still have questions about this? None, Sir.

I. Valuing

As a student, do you think it is important

to participate in local community action
or projects? Yes, Sir. Community involvement is
important for us students because it will
serve as a practice of participation in the
development and progress of our
community.

As a student, do you think you can lead

or promote a community action plan in
your community? Yes, Sir. As students, we have young and
fresh minds that can possibly offer several
solutions to our community’s concerns.
