analyze it in three (3) minutes. After that, they will post it on the board.
Then, they will choose a representative to present their work by giving
insights about the picture. While a group is presenting, the other will

guidelines in panel discussion.
 In making the panel discussion more polite and clear, there are
phrases panelists can use in giving opinion, clarification, asking for
opinion and the likes. For the next activity, there are strips of paper
under the chairs. The students will search for it and identify whether
they are used for asking for opinion, clarifying, expressing opinion,
defending an opinion, agreeing, disagreeing and partly agreeing. The
strips of paper will be posted on the board according to the
aforementioned categories. This activity is called “Help Me Find My
Family!” and will be performed in three (3) minutes. After the activity,

some students to give their examples as well.
