The details in a historical narrative are arranged according to the time they happened or took place
within a period. For example, the Battle of Mactan, which happened during the Spanish
colonization period in the Philippines, can be narrated from the time Magellan arrived in Homonhon
until he died in a battle with Mactan chieftain, Lapu-Lapu, and his army.
Moreover, historical narratives tell the readers what happened or took place, so the ideas are
organized inductively, as you can see in the narration pyramid. This means that writer begins with
the details, such as the characters, setting, and events, and ends with the main thought or a
generalization. Review the narration pyramid and see what the writer’s generalization is. In an
inductive text, the generalization is found in the end part.
What other things did you learn about chronological order as a way of arranging ideas in a text?

Play with the clay, adjust the coils, and make your pot your own! Add
swirls, stamps, or even your initials – let your creativity shine!
Depending on your clay, let your pot air-dry like a superhero soaking up the
sun, bake it in an oven like a cozy cookie, or take it to a special furnace called a kiln
for extra toughness.
Gently smoothen the inside of your pot, giving it a big hug for strength and
durability. Lean against the outside while you hug – two hands are better than one!
Slice the clay in half and peek inside for any air pockets playing
Score the base and the snake's bottom with a little water, to roughen it a bit.
Gently knead a chunk of clay, making it soft and smooth like dough.
Layer your clay snake, coil by coil. This becomes your pot's bottom – the base of
your pot.
Roll a smaller piece of clay until it forms a long, wiggly snake. This will be your pot's
foundation, strong and ready to build upon.
Wind more clay snake layers around and up, building the walls of your pot. Imagine
it reaching for the sky like a friendly giant!

Formative Assessment
Directions: Read the text below and answer the questions or do the tasks that follow.
Magellan and his men had guns and swords, but the
shallow reef near Mactan made it difficult for them to use
their weapons. Meanwhile, because Lapu-Lapu and his men knew their land and sea well,
they easily and skillfully zipped between rocks and coral. They shot arrows and hurled
spears, aiming for the gaps in Magellan's armor, especially his legs.
Magellan tried to scare Lapu-Lapu by burning down the houses of the natives, but this
only made the Lapu-Lapu and the islanders angrier. During battle, Magellan was hit by
poisoned arrow in the leg, and before he could even draw his sword, Lapulapu's warriors
struck him down.
Though short, the battle was huge. It showed that even powerful armies could be beaten
by brave fighters who knew and love their land. Lapulapu became a hero, a symbol courage
to fight for freedom, and a reminder that courage can defeat even the mightiest foe.
