Declaration of AI useDeklarasyon sa Paggamit ng AICite how AI was used in the formulation of the lesson plan. See DO 3, s. 2026 Annex A.(Example Only) AI was used for activity planning, research support, and reviewing the clarity, accuracy, and alignment of the lesson. The teacher remains responsible for contextualizing, validating, and delivering the final lesson based on learners' needs, language, and classroom realities.
IntentionsMga LayuninMeaningful learning experiences are anchored in how we frame them. Start by deciding what you want learners to master by the end of the lesson — keep it clear and simple. Understanding your learners' evolving context and designing around it help ensure that your lessons connect with and are relevant to them.Learners will explore selected Asian popular music forms, especially K-Pop, J-Pop, and C-Pop, and recognize how music, choreography, language, visuals, technology, and youth culture influence contemporary Asian performance.Learners will explore emerging Asian visual and performance arts such as cosplay, digital manga, animation, street art, and mural painting, then describe how these art forms communicate identity, creativity, community, and cultural influence.Learners will be introduced to striking/fielding games and will identify basic tactical concepts, safety rules, movement skills, and fitness abilities needed for active participation in games such as baseball, softball, kickball, cricket, or related activities.Learners will explain the importance of equality, respect, acceptance, and informed choices in building healthy and positive sexuality and in preventing gender-based issues within the school and community.

Learner ContextKonteksto ng Mag-aaralWrite your observations of your learners, and how they have been performing or responding to learning experiences recently. Include strengths, interests, and possible barriers to learning.(Example Only) Learners generally show strong interest in music videos, animation, games, movement activities, and real-life discussions about identity and respect. Many participate actively when visuals, videos, group work, and performance tasks are used. Some learners may need support in using respectful language, explaining cultural influences, following safety procedures during movement tasks, and discussing sensitive health concepts with maturity and openness.
Learning ExperienceKaranasan sa PagkatutoA learning experience is like a thoughtfully designed journey. Each activity and interaction builds towards meaningful understanding and growth. Identify activities and interactions to help learners gain knowledge, skills, or understanding in a purposeful way.The learning experience moves from familiar popular culture to structured understanding, practice, application, and reflection. Learners first connect prior knowledge to Asian music and arts, then analyze examples and create simple outputs. They next apply movement concepts in a safe modified striking/fielding activity, and finally discuss values-based Health concepts through vocabulary work, guided analysis, group planning, formative checks, and reflection.
Pre-LessonBago ang AralinDescribe how you will help the learners get ready for the lesson.Short Review / Preliminary Assessment: Ask learners to identify familiar words or examples connected with Asian popular music, such as K-Pop, J-Pop, C-Pop, idol groups, music videos, choreography, visuals, and fandom. Use a quick true-or-false or word-pick activity to check readiness and activate prior ideas about emerging Asian popular performing arts.Begin with a visual prompt or word pool containing anime, manga, cosplay, animation, street art, mural painting, digital art, and popular characters. Learners choose one term, explain what they know about it, and connect it to visual art, performance, creativity, identity, or culture. The teacher clarifies respectful and appropriate discussion of images and characters.Use a short movement and game recall activity. Ask learners: What games do you know where one team strikes or kicks an object and the other team fields it? What skills are needed to strike, catch, throw, run, or guard space safely? Let learners identify baseball, softball, kickball, cricket, or similar games from pictures or descriptions.Conduct a short preliminary check on Health vocabulary. Learners answer or discuss simple prompts about sex, gender, gender identity, gender expression, sexual orientation, equality, respect, and acceptance. Establish class agreements for respectful listening, appropriate language, confidentiality, and non-judgmental participation before discussing healthy and positive sexuality.
FlowDaloy ng AralinDescribe the activities that you can implement in 1 or more sessions to meet the learning objectives. Apply the Learning Design Principles.1. Present the lesson intention: learners will explore emerging popular music in selected Asian countries and observe how performance elements communicate culture and identity. 2. Facilitate a Pick a Word activity using terms such as K-Pop, J-Pop, C-Pop, choreography, visuals, performance art, and popular art. Ask learners to justify their chosen word. 3.

Use Concept Note questions: What can you say about the costume, make-up, hair, props, and character expression? How does cosplay combine visual art and performance? 5. Discuss digital manga and animation. Clarify that manga usually refers to Japanese-style comics or graphic novels, while anime refers to animated works. Use familiar titles only as examples and avoid inappropriate content. 6. Facilitate a short charade, Pictionary, or image-identification activity where learners identify visual clues, characters, art forms, or animated titles. 7. Discuss street art and mural painting as forms that may express messages, identity, social concerns, or community aesthetics. 8. Learners complete a simple creative task such as an acrostic for STREET ART, a mini-character concept, or a sketch plan for a respectful mural message. 9. Process outputs by asking how visual arts can communicate values, culture, creativity, and advocacy.1. Present the session intention: learners will learn basic concepts of striking/fielding games and practice safe, inclusive movement tasks. 2.

Ways ForwardMga Susunod na HakbangMeaningful learning can also happen beyond the classroom — for both the learners and the teacher. Pause and reflect on what happened today.After each session, the teacher may note learners' participation, clarity of explanations, accuracy of vocabulary use, respect during discussion, creativity in outputs, safety during movement activities, and support needed for learners who require more guidance, visual scaffolds, modified tasks, or confidence-building opportunities.
Extended Learning opportunitiesMga Karagdagang GawainSuggest other learning experiences outside the classroom or class hours that learners may want to access to reinforce what they have learned, to spark their curiosities further, or that may provide them support in their areas of difficulty.Learners may listen to a teacher-approved Asian pop song or watch a short school-appropriate performance clip at home, then list two performance elements and one cultural influence they observed.Learners may observe a safe public mural, printed illustration, comic panel, or animation scene and write three sentences describing its message, visual elements, and possible cultural connection.Learners may practice safe throwing, catching, or kicking skills with a soft object at home or in an open space with adult permission, then reflect on one safety rule and one skill they improved.Learners may discuss with a trusted adult how respect, equality, and acceptance are practiced at home, in school, or in the community, then write one action they can personally do.
ReflectionsMga PagninilayThink about what you need to change for the next session based on what happened today. Is there something the learners are interested in exploring? Are there some things you would like to share with your co-teachers, parents, or school leaders about your classroom experience? What would you like your instructional coach to help you with?(Example Only) Many learners were interested in Asian pop music and could identify visible performance elements. Some needed help explaining cultural influence beyond naming artists. In the next session, provide sentence starters and a simple comparison table to deepen explanations.(Example Only) Learners responded well to images and sketching tasks. A few focused only on characters instead of the art form and message. The next activity should include a checklist for features, purpose, cultural connection, and respectful appreciation.(Example Only) Learners enjoyed the modified striking/fielding activity, but some groups needed reminders about spacing, turn-taking, and safe throws. For the next PE session, assign rotating roles and use a visible safety checklist before gameplay.(Example Only) Learners were able to explain equality and respect, but some were hesitant during sensitive vocabulary discussions. The next Health lesson should continue using clear definitions, class agreements, anonymous question options, and respectful language modeling.

III. PROCEDURE

Teacher's ActivityGawain ng GuroLearner's ActivityGawain ng Mag-aaral
1. Greets the class and states the intention: today we look at popular music from three Asian countries and what it tells us about them. 2. Writes six words on the board — K-Pop, J-Pop, C-Pop, choreography, visuals, fandom — and asks: "Which of these have you heard before? Pick one and tell us where you heard it." 3. Shows or holds up the first example. Asks: "What do you notice about the way they are moving? Is everyone doing the same thing at the same time?" 4. Shows the second and third examples. Asks: "What is different between this one and the first? Listen to the language — is it the same?" 5. Draws a three-column table on the board and labels it K-Pop, J-Pop, C-Pop. Asks the class to fill it in from what they have just seen, one row at a time: country, language, what the dancing looks like. 6. Asks the harder question: "Why would a group from one country sing in another country's language? What does that tell us?" 7. Gives out the Observation Card and reads the four things to fill in. Tells learners they may answer orally or with a partner. 8. Closes: "One sentence each — what is one thing music can tell you about a place you have never been?"1. Settle and listen. A few will name the groups they already follow. 2. Pick a word and say where they heard it. Expected: most will know K-Pop from social media; fewer will know C-Pop. Learners who follow none of it may pick "visuals" or "fandom" — accept it. 3. Watch, then answer. Expected: "they are dancing together", "same steps". Steer towards the word synchronised rather than supplying it first. 4. Compare. Expected: differences in language, tempo, and how the video looks. Some will say one is "more colourful" — ask them what specifically. 5. Volunteer entries for the table. Weaker learners can offer the country and language rows; the movement row needs more confidence. 6. Discuss in pairs first, then share. Expected: to reach more listeners, to be understood abroad. This is the answer that shows the competency. 7. Complete the Observation Card individually or in pairs. 8. Each learner gives one sentence. Repetition is fine — the point is that everyone says something.

IV. EVALUATION

III. PROCEDURE

ActivityGawain

• Pick a Word: six terms on the board — K-Pop, J-Pop, C-Pop, choreography, visuals, fandom. Each learner picks one and says where they have heard it. • Show three examples in turn (or hold up the printed images where there is no projector). Learners watch without discussion the first time through.

AnalysisPagsusuri

• What did you notice about the movement? Is everyone doing the same thing? • What is different between the first example and the third? • Listen to the language. Is it the same in all three? • Why might a group sing in a language that is not their own?

AbstractionPaglalahat

• Name the three forms and the country each comes from. • Draw out the shared features: synchronised choreography, strong visual design, distribution through video and social media. • State the generalisation: popular music carries the culture it comes from — its language, its fashion, and what it treats as beautiful — to audiences who have never been there.

ApplicationPaglalapat

• In groups of four, learners plan a 30-second introduction for a Filipino popular song aimed at an audience in another country. • They must decide: what to say about the language, and one visual choice that shows where the song is from. • Two groups present; the rest note one thing each group chose.

IV. EVALUATION

Observation Card. Learners examine one teacher-screened example and write the music form, one performance feature, one visual feature, and one possible cultural influence.

III. PROCEDURE

Teacher's ActivityGawain ng GuroLearner's ActivityGawain ng Mag-aaralIndicatorIndikeytor
1. Greets the class and states the intention: today we look at popular music from three Asian countries and what it tells us about them. 2. Writes six words on the board — K-Pop, J-Pop, C-Pop, choreography, visuals, fandom — and asks: "Which of these have you heard before? Pick one and tell us where you heard it." 3. Shows or holds up the first example. Asks: "What do you notice about the way they are moving? Is everyone doing the same thing at the same time?" 4. Shows the second and third examples. Asks: "What is different between this one and the first? Listen to the language — is it the same?" 5. Draws a three-column table on the board and labels it K-Pop, J-Pop, C-Pop. Asks the class to fill it in from what they have just seen, one row at a time: country, language, what the dancing looks like. 6. Asks the harder question: "Why would a group from one country sing in another country's language? What does that tell us?" 7. Gives out the Observation Card and reads the four things to fill in. Tells learners they may answer orally or with a partner. 8. Closes: "One sentence each — what is one thing music can tell you about a place you have never been?"1. Settle and listen. A few will name the groups they already follow. 2. Pick a word and say where they heard it. Expected: most will know K-Pop from social media; fewer will know C-Pop. Learners who follow none of it may pick "visuals" or "fandom" — accept it. 3. Watch, then answer. Expected: "they are dancing together", "same steps". Steer towards the word synchronised rather than supplying it first. 4. Compare. Expected: differences in language, tempo, and how the video looks. Some will say one is "more colourful" — ask them what specifically. 5. Volunteer entries for the table. Weaker learners can offer the country and language rows; the movement row needs more confidence. 6. Discuss in pairs first, then share. Expected: to reach more listeners, to be understood abroad. This is the answer that shows the competency. 7. Complete the Observation Card individually or in pairs. 8. Each learner gives one sentence. Repetition is fine — the point is that everyone says something.SY 2025-2026 sheet. GuroSuite lists these for me; where each one shows is my call. Steps 2–4 → 1.1.2 (content across areas — music, language and culture in one discussion) Step 5 → 2.3.2 (the comparison table — the learners do the sorting, not me) Step 6 → 1.5.2 (the higher-order question. If only one moment is watched, this is it.) Step 7 → 3.1.2 (oral or paired answers are allowed, and it is written into the plan rather than decided on the day) Step 8 → 5.1.2

GuroSuite lists your school year’s COT indicators while you write, in DepEd’s own wording from the Annex E-2 rating sheet — the same list at every career stage, since what changes with your stage is the rating scale your observer uses, not what is observed. Deciding which moment of your lesson shows which indicator stays yours: that is the judgement the observation is about.

The planner drafts this from the competencies your division issued, and you edit it before it prints.
