PODCAST SCRIPT – GRADE 9 SDO LIGAO CITY SY 2020-2021 JOHN MICHAEL MANJARES QUARTER 2 MODULE 2: LESSON 2 SPEAK UP YOUR MIND! AUDIO Hello everyone! How are you doing? (PAUSE) Here I am again, Teacher JM, your teacher-podcaster in Grade 9. Are you ready for another podcast lesson? (PAUSE) Good! Before we start, get your self-learning modules as well as your notebook and pen. Set aside your phones and other unnecessary things so that you can focus while learning. According to John Ford: “You can speak well if your tongue can deliver the message of your heart.” True enough, speaking is a natural way to assert your position of having the authority on the topic you presented. More often, you tend to think that delivering a statement before an audience is good when the speaker could present their piece confidently; however, there are underlying qualities that need to be essentially considered. This lesson will provide you a deeper understanding on speech prose that intends to maximize your perception and life values. Through making meanings on the material used in this topic, you will be able to grasp valuable information which will guide your path as you take the journey of life in this world full of complexities and uncertainties. For our episode today, you are expected to analyze literature as a means of understanding unchanging values in the volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous world. You should likewise be able to identify the tone, mood and purpose of the speaker with which the ideas are conveyed; express the thoughts and ideas presented in the prose speech; and make inference on how a particular speech affects one’s outlook in life. Do you want to know how these things are done? (PAUSE) Good! Let’s get started then! Get your Quarter 2 Module 2: Lesson 2 self-learning module and turn it to page 3. Study the following unfamiliar words that you will encounter as you go through this module. The words are: alliance, shrink, endeavour, devotion, and forge. Now, let us see how familiar you are with the topic which you are about to study. I’m sure you’ll remember, if not, get a hint of today’s lesson as you answer the five-item pre-test on page 3. Ready? You may begin. How did it go? You can check how well you fared in the pre-test by referring to the answer key found

on the past page of the module. Three correct answers or above is great, two is still okay. Don’t worry, whatever score you got, as long as you were able to answer each item, you’re good to go. Besides, this is just a warm up. Let’s move forward! Recall an instance where you had the chance to watch or listen to someone expressing his or her thoughts sensibly. How did the speaker express her/his thoughts? What could be the reasons behind those statements? In this section, read carefully the speech transcript of one of the remarkable figures that made an impact worldwide and still known up to this time. He is none other than John F. Kennedy. He was the 35th President of the United States who embodied the fresh optimism that had marked the post-war decade. The youngest president in United States history, he was the first man born in the 20th century to hold that office. Listening to his inaugural address, the nation felt that a new era and a “new frontier” were being ushered in. On November 22, 1963, when he was hardly past his first thousand days in office, JFK was assassinated in Dallas, Texas, becoming also the youngest President to die. Interesting right? Now, are you ready to read an excerpt of his Inauguration Speech? (PAUSE) Okay! You may start now. How did it go so far? Did you get the message of the speech? (PAUSE) Don’t worry because you can always go back and read it during your dedicated study time. Now, let’s talk about the text by answering the five-item comprehension questions on page 6. Read the items carefully then select the letter of the correct answer. Write your answers in your activity notebook. Take your time in doing the tasks. If you think you need help, you may consult your learning facilitator at home or your subject teacher. Are you done with the activity? (PAUSE) Good job! Now, let us study the important aspects of prose that are highlighted in the text. What is the attitude of the writer toward his subject or audience? Is it serious or sarcastic? (PAUSE) Correct! The writer is serious and at the same time optimistic. What do you call this attitude of the writer towards his subject? (PAUSE) That’s right! We call it as TONE. The author’s tone is generally conveyed through the choice of words, or the viewpoint of a writer on a particular subject. Tone is not an action but an attitude. It can be serious, light, board, inspired, sarcastic, cheerful, sad, worried, satisfied, wishful, optimistic, envious, confused, afraid, mocking, inspiring, anxious, cynical, defiant, triumphant, critical, persuasive, mysterious, etc. Remember: Since the tone is the author’s own attitude toward the subject, a reader must “read

between the lines” to feel the author’s attitude and identify the tone. The author's intentions, emotions, and personal ideas about the theme or subject matter often reveal themselves in the piece's tone. If you want to know more about tone and its examples in common speech, you may go to the discussion part of your module on pages 6 to 7. Let us now proceed to the next important aspect of prose which is the Mood. In literature, mood is a literary element that evokes certain feelings or vibes in readers through words and description. Usually, mood is referred to as the atmosphere of a literary piece, as it creates an emotional setting that surrounds the readers. A mood is a feeling or a person's specific state of mind at any particular time. It is the prevailing emotion that sets the overall tone for speech or writing. Study the examples given on page 8 to know more about the mood. You can do this at your most convenient time. Meanwhile, do you know that every piece of writing has a mood? (PAUSE) That’s right! Every piece of writing has a mood, but writers can use moods to achieve vastly different effects in their writing. In general, mood serves the following functions in literature: (1) It enables writers to take their readers on a journey that is emotional in addition to being imaginary or imagistic, (2) It helps convey the central themes of the work. For instance, a play about death might have a mournful or gloomy mood, (3) It can help the reader identify more fully with the writer or characters by causing readers to feel the same emotions the writer or characters feel, and (4) It helps works of literature "come alive" by instilling the language with human emotions. Sometimes, there is a misconception between tone and mood. Do you know how they differ from each other? (PAUSE) Tone is very closely related to “mood,” but the only difference is that mood refers to an emotional quality, whereas tone can refer to emotional and non- emotional qualities alike. So, a “sad tone” is the same thing as a “sad mood”; but you could only say that a piece has a “formal tone,” not a “formal mood,” because formality is not an emotion. Remember: An author’s tone influences the story’s mood and atmosphere. Tone is less about what an author feels and more about how that author wants the reader to feel. Mood in literature is the overall feeling and author creates for his audience. Mood is the atmosphere the text creates. In a way, it’s all of the “unsaid” elements that create a feeling the text provides for the audience. Mood is essential to engage readers. If mood is the overall feeling the author creates for his audience, what about the purpose? (PAUSE) Authors write for many different reasons. Those reasons are called the author's purpose. Depending on the purpose, authors may choose all different sorts of writing formats, genres and language.

The author may write to persuade, to inform, or to entertain. To Persuade is an attempt to get listeners to embrace a point of view or to adopt a behavior that they would not have done otherwise. A persuasive speech can be distinguished from an informative speech by the fact that it includes a call for action for the audience to make some change in their behavior or thinking. It can be pure or manipulative in nature. The second type of author’s purpose it To Inform. Its goal is to enlighten the reader about real-world topics, inform or describe something by providing facts and reasons to get point across. Simply put, this is about helping audience members acquire information that they do not already possess and use this information to understand something or to perform a new task or improve their skills Meanwhile, if the purpose is to entertain, the writer is focused on the theme and occasion of the speech. Its primary goal is to capture the interest of the reader or appeal to their emotion. It functions as a way to divert an audience from their day-to-day lives for a short period of time.

If you find it hard to remember the author’s purpose, a simple trick to summarize the three main categories of author's purpose is to use the acronym PIE, P stands for persuade, I for inform and E for entertain. Now that you know the basic purposes for writing a text, what are your key takeaways from this discussion? (PAUSE) Good! Now, before you apply what you learned today, remember the following key points: 1. There are three general purposes that speeches fall: to inform, to persuade, and to entertain. 2. Informative speeches can focus on objects, people, events, concepts, processes, or issues. 3. There are two basic types of persuasion: the pure and the manipulative. Speakers who attempt to persuade others for pure reasons do so because they actually believe in what they are persuading an audience to do or think. 4. Although entertainment speech may be informative or persuasive elements to your speech, your primary reason for giving the speech is to entertain the audience. Since you’ve been equipped with the skills, let us see if you can put that into practice. Go to page 11 of your module and silently read the text which is an excerpt of Martin Luther King Jr.’s famous speech. Take note of the unfamiliar words for you to better understand the text. You may also view the video clip of this speech through the link provided in the module. I will give you at least 5 minutes to do a silent reading of the text. You may start. What can you say about the speech? Was it persuasive and inspiring? (PAUSE) Now, let’s dig deeper by doing the five-item comprehension check. Then, proceed to Practice Task 2 –

Turning Back, and Practice Task 3 – One More Chance. If you’re done with the activities, you may check your own work by referring to the answers found on the last page of your module. If you got 7 and above, you deserve a pat on the back! If you got lower than that, don’t worry, I’m sure you’ll do better in the next activities. Before we proceed to the final task, let us recall what we tackled in today’s podcast lesson. Tone is the attitude of a writer toward a subject or an audience whereas mood is the emotion the author wants the readers to feel while reading about the subject. With regards to purpose, remember the acronym PIE. P stands for persuade, I for inform, and E for entertain. Consider these key points as your takeaway in this lesson. You’re almost done guys! Now, proceed to the Post-Test on page 14. Read the sample speech carefully before you answer the questions provided after the text. Write your answer in your activity notebook. I’ll give you few minutes to read the text quietly and ponder on the message of the speech. If you’re done, you may answer the questions following the text. Before we finally end this episode, let me remind you to work on your assignment which is to compose a five-sentence paragraph that discusses how the speaker affects the mindset of the audience/listener. Be guided by the given rubric as you craft your paragraphs. That’s it for today guys! Congratulations for a job well done! This concludes our learning session on the determining the tone, mood, and purpose. Tune in again next time for another podcast lesson with me, Teacher JM. ‘Til the next learning session! Stay safe everyone! Bye!...
