Cut and Paste/Cover Activity: Mga Katulong sa Pamayanan

A cut and paste (or cover) activity has two pages. One page has illustrations that correspond to words or descriptions on another page. The learner can cut the illustrations and use them to paste over (or cover) the correct corresponding word or description on the other page. The activity I made is about community helpers in Filipino (mga katulong sa pamayanan). There are two sets of the cut-and-paste activity in the PDF file below. One set has the common nouns for the community helpers (e.g., guro, doktor, nars, bumbero, etc.) and the other set has descriptions of what the community helper does. Set 1 Set 2 If you would like to reuse the illustrations, I recommend that you laminate the cut illustration or cover both sides of it with transparent tape so that they are flexible and would be more sturdy than paper.

Mga Hanapbuhay (Part 1)

Some time ago, a reader asked me if I had materials on community helpers in Filipino. I replied that I did not have any worksheets on that topic because it would take some time to make the necessary illustrations. I decided to purchase clip art images online, but I realized that it was necessary to illustrate my own so as to show what Filipinos in different professions look like. Below is the link to an 8-page PDF file that can be printed to make a booklet that is half the size of a short bond paper. It has images of 13 different Filipino professions and a short description for each. The text may be used to practice reading in Filipino and the student can color the illustrations. On the last page of the booklet, the student is asked to draw himself or herself with the job he or she wishes…
