GRADE 8 ENGLISH: Afro-Asian Literature

Ms. Katrina Joy Naval


The learner demonstrates understanding of: African literature as a means of exploring forces that human
beings contend with; prosodic features that serve as carriers of meaning; ways by which information may
be organized, related, and delivered orally; and parallel structures and cohesive devices in presenting
information.
The learner transfers learning by composing and delivering an informative speech based on a specific
topic of interest keeping in mind the proper and effective use of parallel structures and cohesive devices
and appropriate prosodic features, stance, and behavior.
