III. TEACHING AND LEARNING PROCEDURE NOTES TO TEACHERS

A. Activating Prior

Knowledge

DAY 1

1. Short Review

Before diving into exciting new features of word processing software, let’s take a

creative trip down memory lane to review the powerful tools we’ve already mastered—

page breaks and auto table of contents. Imagine you're creating a magical book filled

with enchanted stories. To make it reader-friendly, you need to organize it beautifully.

Let’s recall how we did that using page breaks and auto tables of contents.

Questions:

1. Imagine you’re writing a book of spells. Who can remind us what a page

break is and why we use it to separate different sections or chapters of our

spell book?"

2. Now, think of our spell book having hundreds of pages. Can anyone explain

how an auto table of contents is like a magical map that helps readers

navigate through the chapters? Why is this feature so useful in a long

document?

Mail merge in MS Word is a helpful feature that allows you to create personalized

documents, such as letters or labels, for multiple recipients at once. By using a list of

information, you can automate the process of customizing each document with

individual details like names, addresses, and other specific content.

Examples:

1. Letter to Students: Imagine you need to send a letter to all your classmates

about an upcoming event. With mail merge, you can create one template letter

and automatically fill in each person's name to make it personal for every

recipient.

2. Address Labels: If you're sending out invitations to a party, you can use mail

merge to create address labels for each guest on your list. This way, you don't

have to handwrite each label - Word does it for you!

Encourage students to think about

how page breaks help in creating

clean separations between

chapters, much like turning a page

in a real book.

Get students to visualize an auto

table of contents as a guide or

index in a book of spells, which

magically updates itself to point to

the correct locations of each

chapter or section.

By understanding mail merge and

practicing with these examples

and analogies, the learners will be

able to easily create personalized

documents efficiently using MS

Word.

B. Introduce the concept of

mail merge by asking

students how

personalization can make a

document more engaging.

C. Show a sample

personalized letter

Page 5 of 16

Analogies:

1. Bakery Analogy: Think of mail merge like a bakery making personalized

cakes. The bakery has a list of orders with different names and decorations.

With mail merge, Word is the baker, and the list of orders is your data source.

Word helps add the unique touches to each cake just like it personalizes each

document with specific information.

2. School Yearbook Analogy: In a school yearbook, each student has their own

section with a customized message. Mail merge works similarly - like a magical

yearbook editor that automatically fills in the personalized details for each

student without having to write it out by hand.

2. Feedback (Optional)

compared to a generic one

and discuss the differences.

B. Establishing

Lesson Purpose

1. Lesson Purpose

Imagine you're creating a legendary recipe book for Filipino mythical creatures. You want

to personalize each recipe for different creatures like the kapre, tikbalang, and diwata

without rewriting it many times. That's where our magic tool, the mail merge feature, comes

in!

Questions:

1. Why do you think the mail merge feature is like a magical spell? How can it help you

send personalized recipes to different Filipino mythical creatures quickly and

efficiently?

2. Imagine you’re writing a research paper on Philippine folklore and need to ensure

every fact and reference is accurate. How can using references improve the quality

and credibility of your documents, just like citing ancient Filipino legends in your

research?

Mail Merge allows you to create a batch of personalized documents where each

document shares the same layout, formatting, text, and graphics, except for specific

personalized parts.

• These personalized parts can include recipient names, addresses, and

other customized information.

• You associate a data source (such as an Excel spreadsheet, Outlook

contact list, or any other database) with your Word document.

Common Document Types for Mail Merge:

• Letters: Create personalized letters with a customized greeting for each

recipient. Each letter prints on a separate sheet of paper.

• Emails: Send personalized email messages directly from Word, where

each recipient's address is the only address on the "To" line.

Encourage students to think of mail

merge as a magical tool that

automates repetitive tasks, making

it easier to personalize documents

for many recipients at once.

Get students to see references as a

way to strengthen their documents,

much like how citing reputable

sources adds authority and

trustworthiness to academic

writing.

By the end of this lesson, you will

understand how to use mail merge

to automate sending personalized

documents and how to insert and

manage references to support your

research and writing.

D. Making

Generalizations

1. Learners’ Takeaways

The teacher will ask the learners:

• Teachers will emphasize the importance of the different computer number

systems.

• The teacher will ask the learners to expound or recap the concept of the

different computer number systems.

• The teacher will process their answers and let the students again create a

single generalization.

2. Reflection on Learning

The teacher will ask the learner this question:

How do you find today’s lesson? Was it hard? Which part of the lesson do you find

difficult?

C. Teacher’s

Reflection

Reflection guide or prompt can be on:

▪ principles behind the teaching

What principles and beliefs informed my lesson?

Why did I teach the lesson the way I did?
