This document outlines lesson plans for teaching a short story called "The Wedding Dance" by Amador Daguio. The objectives are to develop understanding of Philippine culture, expand vocabulary, examine literary elements, and demonstrate appreciation of the text through group work and presentations. Students will read the story and complete a story map graphic organizer. They will then analyze aspects of the story in small groups using various worksheets before presenting their analyses to the class.
