Determining Connection of Events in a
Viewing Material about COVID-19
Introductory Message
For the Facilitator:
Welcome to the English 10 Self-Learning Module on Determining

Connection of Events in a Viewing Material about COVID-19.
This Self-Learning Module was collaboratively designed, developed, and

reviewed by educators from the Schools Division Office of Pasig City headed by its
Officer-in-Charge Schools Division Superintendent, Ma. Evalou Concepcion A.
Agustin, in partnership with the City Government of Pasig through its mayor,
Honorable Victor Ma. Regis N. Sotto. The writers utilized the standards set by the K
to 12 Curriculum using the Most Essential Learning Competencies (MELC) in
developing this instructional resource.
This learning material hopes to engage the learners in guided and

independent learning activities at their own pace and time. Further, this also aims
to help learners acquire the needed 21st-century skills especially the 5 Cs, namely:
Communication, Collaboration, Creativity, Critical Thinking, and Character while
taking into consideration their needs and circumstances.
In addition to the material in the main text, you will also see this box in the
body of the module:
Notes to the Teacher

This contains helpful tips or strategies
that will help you in guiding the learners.
As a facilitator, you are expected to orient the learners on how to use this
module. You also need to keep track of the learners' progress while allowing them
to manage their learning. Moreover, you are expected to encourage and assist the
learners as they do the tasks included in the module.
For the learner:

Welcome to the English 10 Self-Learning Module on Determining
Connection of Events in a Viewing Material about COVID-19.
The hand is one of the most symbolized parts of the human body. It is often
used to depict skill, action, and purpose. Through our hands, we may learn, create,
and accomplish. Hence, the hand in this learning resource signifies that you as a
learner is capable and empowered to successfully achieve the relevant
competencies and skills at your own pace and time. Your academic success lies in
your own hands!
This module was designed to provide you with fun and meaningful
opportunities for guided and independent learning at your own pace and time. You
will be enabled to process the contents of the learning material while being an
active learner.
This module has the following parts and corresponding icons:
Expectations - This points to the set of knowledge and skills

that you will learn after completing the module.
Pretest - This measures your prior knowledge about the

lesson at hand.
Recap - This part of the module provides a review of concepts

and skills that you already know about a previous lesson.
Lesson - This section discusses the topic in the module.
Activities - This is a set of activities that you need to perform.

EXPECTATIONS
This is your self-instructional learner module in English 10. All the

activities provided in this lesson will help you learn and understand:
Determining Connection of Events in a Viewing Material about COVID-
19.
PRETEST
Direction: Put checkmark (✓) in the box if the sentence describes a

symptom of COVID-19. Put a cross mark (✗) if not.
1. A person suffers from a dry cough.
2. A patient may suffer memory loss.
3. A person may experience very high fever and breathing difficulty.
4. A patient suffers from hearing impairment.
5. A person with COVID-19 may have diarrhea.
RECAP
The following are some points from the previous lesson:
 Comparing and contrasting are ways of exploring the similarities and

differences between two things.
 A basis for comparison is an essential common element that makes it
logical to compare two items.
 Accessibility and effectiveness are two of the most important criteria
for evaluating information sources. This will serve as a guide in
comparing and contrasting the contents of a material and determining
the quality of information it provides.
LESSON
Viewing has become an important skill in learning. It is now taken as

a reading activity through the use of non-linear materials like videos and
films. And as a literacy skill, one has to use strategies similar to those we
use in reading to be able to determine the connectedness of events and
information in a viewing material to make inferences, generalizations, and
main idea understanding.
To develop this skill, let’s use a material that discusses a very timely
issue. Do the following activities.
COVID-19 is an infectious disease caused by a newly discovered

coronavirus. Most people infected with COVID-19 experience mild to
moderate respiratory illness. Let us learn more about this illness and know
how to avoid it.
