EN6RC-Ig-2.24.1
Learning Objectives
At the end of this learning journey, you should
be able to:
1. Enumerate characters in the story;
2. Identify the setting in the story;
3. Explain narratives based on how the
author developed the setting and
characters.

3. The Setting of the story refers to the geographic
location (places or scene) and time within a narrative.
Characters in the story refer to the persons or animals
around which the story revolves.
The Setting makes the story vivid and interesting.
Usually, the setting is not said directly, instead, clues are
given for the readers to infer. In some stories, however,
the setting can change. Time may not be described
directly and can move back and forth. The place where
the scene is happening can be change abruptly.

4. While Characters in the story refers to the
persons, animals, beings, creatures, or things
around which the story revolves. Writers are
use characters to perform the action and
speak dialogue, moving the story along a
plotline. Characters are also an important
element in narratives. There are some traits of
the characters in a story are shown in various
ways: 1. Through the author’s use of
descriptive words about the characters. 2. By
the actions of the characters themselves. 3.
By the words coming from the other
characters or the narrator in the story.

5. What’s In
Activity 1: Identify the proper noun in the following
sentences. Write your answers on a piece of paper.
________ 1. Ryan went to the market
________ 2. The latest Iphones were missing.
________ 3. The group of girls was having fun in
Center Plaza Mall.
________ 4. Mrs. Reyes cared for the babies
throughout the day.
________ 5. He likes to go swimming in Port
Royale.

6. Activity 1: Solve each problem. Write the
corresponding letter from the answer you’ve
got in a piece of paper. This will form words
that we will be learning today.

7. Setting is the time and place (or when and
where) of the story. Example of setting:

8. To understand more settings, the given example
is the Disney movie “Cinderella.” The time aspect
of the setting changes after her father dies,
skipping roughly ten years into the future.
Understanding these changes in time helps in
keeping up with the story or narration. Let’s Try This.
Read and understand the example below. Let’s
find the setting in the story.
As the sunset in the evening sky, Ryan slowly
turned and walked his way home. All was silent
and still. Through the window, he could see her
older sister Bella watching a Korean movie on the
television. Bella came home from the city where
she is currently studying. Though it was lonely at
times for Ryan being alone in their home, seeing
Bella once a month makes him happy.

9. While Characters in the story
refers to the persons, animals,
beings, creatures, or things around
which the story revolves. They are
also important elements in
narratives.

10. There are some traits of the characters in a story
e shown in various ways:
1. Through the author’s use of descriptive words
about the characters. Example: Ryan is playful
and outspoken.
2. By the actions of the characters themselves.
Example: Ervin sat under the tree. He is happy being
with the dragonflies that dart around the plants and
the spiders that make the web among the leaves.
3. By the words coming from the other characters
or the narrator in the story. Example: “That girl
should be more friendly. She keeps to herself most of
the time.”

11. Let’s Try This. Now, try to check the story
again. Let see who are the characters.
Let’s Try This. Read and understand. Let’s identify the
setting of the story and let’s find who are the
characters in the given story below. Shela was alone at
home when the doorbell rang. Jumping up from her
seat she ran to open the door. “Have you tried this
brand of coffee before?” asked the stranger. Shela
was frightened. She was actually expecting her mother
at the door. 4 She wanted to shut the door but it was
too late. The salesman had already pushed his way
into the house.

12. Opinion is an explanation or
judgment about the story or
narratives on what you have read,
but this is not necessarily based on
fact or knowledge. Basically, it
answers the questions “How” and
“Why.” For example:

14. What ‘s More

15. “Whenever a good child dies, an angel
of God comes down from heaven,
takes the dead child in his arms, and flies
with him over all the places the child had
loved during his life. Then he gathers a
handful flowers, which he carries up to the
Almighty that they bloom more brightly in
heaven than they do on earth. And God
presses the flowers to His heart, but He
kisses the flower that pleases Him best, and
it receives a voice, and is able to join the
song of the chorus of bliss.”

16. The flower grew beautifully, rose-bush,
but some wicked hand had broken the
stem. The dead child said, “That was so
pitiful! Let us take it to heaven in God’s
garden so that it will grow there.” The angel
took up the rose-bush; then he kissed the
child, and the little one half opened eyes.
The angel picked also some beautiful
flowers, as well as a few humble buttercups
and heart’s-ease. "Now we have more
flowers," said the child; the angel only
nodded and he did not fly upward to
heaven.

17. It was quite still in the middle of night in this
great town. They remained still and the angel
came over a small, narrow street. There are dirty
plates, pieces of plaster, rags, old hats, and other
things that is not good to see. In all this confusion,
the angel pointed to the pieces of a broken
flower-pot. The earth had been kept from falling
flower-pot and to a lump of earth which had
fallen out of it. The earth had been kept from
falling to pieces by the roots of a withered field-
flower, which had been thrown by the rubbish.
The angel said, “We will take this with us, I will
tell you why as we fly.” And as they flew the
angel started to tell a story.

18. "Down in that narrow alley, in a low cellar, lived a poor sick
boy; he had been troubled from his childhood, and even in
his best days he could just manage walk up and down the
room on crutches once or twice, but no more. Some days in
summer, the sunbeams would lie on the floor of the cellar for
about half an hour. In this spot the poor sick boy would sit
and warming himself in the sunshine. Then he would say he
had been out, they knew nothing of the green forest in its
spring verdure, till a neighbor’s son brought him a green
bough from a beech-tree. This he would place over his
head, and fancy that he was in the beech-wood while sun
shone, and birds carolled gayly. One day the neighbor’s
boy brought him some field-flowers, and among them was
one to which the root still adhered. This he carefully planted
by a fortunate hand, for it grew, put forth fresh shoots, and
blossomed every year. It became a splendid flower-garden
to the sick boy, and his little treasure upon earth. He watered
it, and cherished it, and took care of it. It should have the

19. It should have the benefit of every sunbeam
that found its way into the cellar, from the earliest
morning ray to the evening sunset. The flower
entwined itself even in his dreams, for him it
bloomed, for him it spread its perfume. And it
gladdened his eyes and to the flower he turned,
when the Lord called him. He has been one year
with God. The flower has stood in the window,
withered and forgotten. Even this flower, withered
and faded as it is, it gave more real joy than the
most beautiful flower in the Queen’s garden,”
"But why do you know this?" he asked. "I knew
it, because I ‘am the sick little boy and I know
my own flower very well," said the Angel.

20. Then the child opened his eyes and looked into
the glorious happy face of the angel, and at the
same moment they found themselves in God's
Heaven where all is happiness and joy. The
Almighty pressed the child to His chest, and he
received white wings, so they can flew together
with the angels, hand in hand. After that, God
pressed all the flowers to His heart, but He kissed
the poor withered flower. All were supremely
happy and they all graciously sang, the God
blessed child and the withered field flower that
had lain so long in the rubbish heap in the narrow,
dark alley.

25. What Can I Do
God Helps Those Who Help Themselves
By Anita A. Bagabaldo

26. Ching and Lu were brothers. They lived
in a four-storey building with many other
families.
One early dawn in August 1968, the
brothers were fall asleep in their room.
Suddenly, they were awakened by the
strong shaking of the building. Both
brothers knew instantly that there was a
strong earthquake. In a second, they
found themselves buried under tons of
bricks, cement and wood.
Ching and Lu could hardly move.
“Come, Lu,” Ching said. “Let us try to get
out.”

27. After long hours of waiting, Ching saw a
hole on the wall. Soon he felt strong hands
drawing him out of the wall. Ching was
saved. But Lu could not save anymore.
Help came too late for Lu. He died along
with hundreds of people who buried in the
building by the strong quake that August
dawn. Many people were saved. Like
Ching, they believed that God would not
forsake them if they helped themselves.
God helped them indeed.

How the Author Developed the Setting and
Characters
The Educated Man and the Peasant
From “Stories to Get” by G.D. Morris

31. Once upon a time, there was a young
man from Bucharest who had just finished
university. He was proud of his knowledge
and smarts, and so decided to leave the
big city and make his way teaching
peasants in the countryside. Immediately,
he was met with difficulties. He found that
people didn’t take too kindly to being
considered more stupid than he, for he was
twenty-two and most of the people that he
meet were much older.

32. If he was to teach them, he would have proved
that he was smarter. Feeling confident of his
powers, he made a wager with a peasant. If the
peasant couldn’t answer the educated man’s
question then the peasant would have to hand
over three Lei. The educated man chuckled to
himself. “This is going to be easy money.” The
entire village gathered to witness the quiz. The
educated man asked the first question, “What is
the capital of England?” The peasant answered,
“I don’t know. I will give you three Lei.” “London.”
The people gasped; they were impressed. The
educated man pocketed the money and asked
a second question, “What moves very fast but
doesn’t look like it is moving at all?”

33. The peasant answered, “I
don’t know. I will give you three
Lei.” “The earth.” The
educated man pocketed the
money and asked a third
question, “What goes up in the
day and down at night?” The
peasant answered, “I don’t
know. I will give you three Lei.”

34. The educated man had taken from
the peasant a total of nine Lei. Now the
peasant was poor and his wife started to
cry. However, at his turn, the peasant
also wished to ask the educated man a
question but if he could not answer it, he
would have to hand over thousand Lei to
the peasant. The educated man quickly
agreed and thought to himself. “This
surely a fool!”

35. “What goes in the morning with two legs, at
noon with four legs and in the evening with six
legs?” There was a long silence and everyone
was staring at the educated man. He searched
his brain for a long time but to no avail. He did
not know the answer and had a choice but to
hand over five thousand Lei, which was
everything he had. Afterwards, the educated
man was curious and so asked, “So what goes
in the morning with two legs, at noon with four
and in the evening with six?” The peasant
answered, “I don’t know. I will give you three
Lei.”
