Everyday Heroes
Traffic jams bring about everyday heroes. When traffic enforcers go missing
and intersections come at a bind, there is usually that one (raise pointer finger)
man who steps out of his car and begins navigating traffic. He may be in a suit
(raise both hands at chest level, then slowly bring them down to hips).
Sometimes he’s a bystander (raise one hand, palm up) in rags who steps in to
unclog the streets, then goes about his merry way once the knots are undone.
There’s the taxi driver (extend arm, palm up, and point to the window) who
sees us struggling with a stalled car. Without hesitation (shake head), he helps
us out with our engine and brings our car back to life. No (raise pointer finger
and move from side to side) payment is required and he even refuses it. We
drive away, thankful for the kindness of strangers, and resolve (straighten
back) to pay it forward.
This activity will lead the learners to what the lesson is all about.
Each students will demonstrate each gestures together with the teacher.

Appropriate oral language stance and behavior makes all the difference
between a boring conversation and an engaging one. It influences the
meaning of a speaker’s message.
Stance can be defined as the attitude that the writer has towards the topic of
his or her message (Smith, 2019). The stance that you take will greatly
determine the tone of your message and the words that you choose.
Oral language stance and behavior can be broken down into five
categories:
1. Facial expressions
2. Eye contact
3. Posture
4. Gestures
5. Position and Movement
The teacher will discuss each categories and demonstrate those
stance and behavior to be followed by the learner.
