Motive Question:
Say: In the story you are going to listen to, let us find out why people
have different colors.
Black, White , Brown
By Nemah N. Hermosa
(Adapted froma Philippine Folktale)

Once upon a time, there were no people. There was only the earth and the God Kabunian. He
said, The earth is a beautiful place. But who will take care of it? I will make people.
In the afternoon, Kabunian got some clay. He worked for a long time. When he finished making a
man, it was night. The color of the night became the color of the man. He is too dark, Kabunian said.
The next morning, Kabunian woke up before sunrise. He got some clay. He made a man. When
the sun came up, Kabunian saw
the man. He is too white, Kabunian said.
So Kabunian got more clay. He made another man. It was noon. The hot sun made the man
brown. I like this brown man, said Kabunian.
Kabunian sent the men to different parts of the Earth. That is why there are black people and
white people. That is why Filipinos are brown.

 A Cake for Kate
By Gretel Laura M. Cadiong
Kate was turning ten. But she was not happy. Birthdays were ordinary days for her. She
never had a birthday party. She never had a cake on her birthday. But she wished she could have
one.
After school, she would stand near the gate to sell rice cakes that her mother made.
One late afternoon, Kate saw a big box on one of the benches. She picked it up and opened
it. There were glasses, spoons, and forks. There were also boxes of wrist watches, a bag of marbles,
chocolates, combs, and some dresses. She closed the big box. She brought it to the principals office.
The next day, Mr. Basa, the school principal and a lady came to Kates class. The lady was
Mrs. Salas, the owner of the box. Mr. Basa looked for Kate and he told Mrs. Salas how Kate found
the big box. Mrs. Salas thanked Kate.
I just arrived from Cebu and the things inside the box aremy pasalubong for my family,
she said. I was in your school because I had to fetch my nephew. Then, I forgot that box, she
added.
Sunday came. It was Kates birthday. After attending mass, Kate and her mother went home.
They were surprised to see Mrs. Salas waiting for them.
Happy birthday, Kate, Mrs. Salas said. I brought you a gift. I asked your teacher about you
and I am happy to know that you are not only a helpful daughter but an honest girl, too. She gave
Kate a red box tied with a ribbon. Kate opened the box. What a surprise! It was a cake for her
birthday!
