Rupa: Maysa a Libro Dagiti Rikna

Book in Ilokano

Week 5. Author: Yayi Espenilla-Fua The book shows the many faces of children when they feel different emotions in different situations. Children feel happy when they play with playmates, when they read a book with a parent, when they watch a funny show with the family, or even when they are just by themselves. Children may feel sad when a parent leaves, a pet dies, when they are scolded, when they have no one to play with, when they are sick, when their parents are too busy, or when they are fighting with a sibling. They may also feel angry when they do not get what they want, when they fight with each other or with a parent, or when somebody takes away their toy. There are times when children also feel frightened - when it is dark, when there is lightning and thunder, when they imagine monsters or ghosts, when they have a bad dream, or when they break something in the house and their parents get mad. Often, children also feel shy especially when entering the classroom for the first time, when meeting another adult, when being befriended by another child, when performing, or being given something. But, they can also be brave when they defend each other from bullies, when they go to the doctor, or when they go inside the school or the classroom on their own. 2017 by U.S.Agency for International Development (USAID) Produced for the Department of Education under the USAID Basa Pilipinas Activity Basa Pilipinas is USAID/Philippines’ flagship basic education activity in support of the Philippine Government’s early grade reading program. Implemented in close collaboration with the Department of Education (DepEd), Basa Pilipinas aims to improve the reading skills for at least one million early grade students in Filipino, English and two mother tongue languages (Ilokano and Sinugbuanong Binisaya).This will be achieved by improving reading instruction, reading delivery systems, and access to quality reading materials.
