BantayandTagpi
Comic Strip
Listen as your teacher reads the comic strip. Look at the
pictures.
Bantay and Tagpi
by Roderick Motril Aguirre
Bantay is looking at his collection of bones.He is counting
them.
Hmmm! I wonder
why some of my bones
are missing.
Tagpi arrives running, calling and shoutingto Bantay.
126
Tagpi tumbles down on Bantay’s collection of bones.
Bantaaaaay!Bantaaay ouch!
Bantay wants to laugh but stops himself so as not to hurt Tagpi’s
feelings. Tagpi notices Bantay’s collection of bones and tells
Bantay…
What a huge
collection of
bones you’ve got
here!
127
Bantay greets Tagpi.
Tagpi bounces up and down around Bantay invitinghimto play
“catch the ball”.
Come on Bantay!
Let’s play catch the
ball. It will be fun.
Okay Tagpi. I will just
get the ball inside the
house.
128
Bantay agrees. They both play “catch the ball”. Bantay and Tagpi
play with the ball on the grass field.
Tagpi tells Bantay that he is tired and wants to take a nap.
I’m going home now
Bantay. I am already tired
and I need to take a nap.
Okay. You go on
then. I will just get
the ball.
129
Bantay bounds off to get the ball at the far end of the grass field.
Then he runs back to his house with the ball in his mouth.
He drops the ball when he sees that one more big bone is missing.
Who is getting my bones?
130
Meanwhile, Tagpi buries the bone he took from Bantay’s collection.
Then he goes to the front of his master’s house. He sleeps in his cute
dog basket. He curls inside his new blanket.
Tagpi awakens because a stray dog is tugging at his new blanket.
The stray dog runs away with his new blanket.
131
Tagpi cries out loud. Bantay from the other house hears him.
How could anyone get
things that are not theirs?
Bantay consoles Tagpi.
Bantay adds…
Bantay courageously said.
Some dogs do. Probably
the same dog took the
bones from my collection
Let’s go find him and get the things he took
from us.”
132
Tagpi is about to say somethingabout Bantay’s missing bones
but Bantay urges him to run with him to look for the stray dog.
Bantay and Tagpi look everywhere for the stray dog but failedto
find him.
Bantay and Tagpi slowly walk back to their homes. Bantay notices
Tagpi still crying.
133
Bantay cheers up Tagpi.
It’s okay Tagpi. Your master
will understand what
happened to your blanket. I
am sure that soon enough you
will have a new blanket,”
I am no longer crying about
that. I am the one who took
some of your bones. You have
a lot of bones in your
collection. So, I thought you
will not miss one or two
bones.
Tagpi admits.
If you want some of my bones, all you have to do is
ask, Tagpi. After all, what are friends for?”
Bantayexplains.
I know that now. I hope you can
forgive me!
Tagpi says sorry.
Accepted!!
Bantay answers with a big smile.
134
Bantay walks home with Tagpi bouncingup and down
around him.

Activity 168
A. Look at the picture of the animal band.
Read and Remember
B. Let us read this story. Be ready to answer some
questions aboutit.
The Adventures of the Animal Band
It was a fine day. The horse and his friends went on a trip
to an island. “It will be a long, long trip and you have to
remember what happens each day”, the horse said.
They rode on a ship named Combo. Soon they were far
out in the deep sea. Suddenly, they heard a loud cracking
sound. The ship hit a big hard rock.
189
Captain Goat told them, “Put on your life vest! We are
sinking! We must abandon ship now! Swim, swim for your
lives!”
The horse and his friends followed Captain Goat’s
command. They jumped from the ship and swam to a
safe place.
The carabao had the monkey on his back. The rat held
on tightly to the turtle’s shell. The dog, duck and frog swam
together. They all swam until they reached the island.
The horse and his friends now have many things to
remember. Would you like to find out how long they stayed on
the island and how they spent the days there? Here is what
they wrote down.
Day 1:
Thank God, we’re alive! We swam all day and all night
until we reached land. Who knows what’s on this island. I
wouldn’t know, but first, we have to sleep and rest.
- Ratty
Day 2:
Today, we walked around the island. I climbed a tree
and all I saw was the deep blue sea. I told my friends there was
nothing but the deep blue sea. When I went down, I felt the
hot sand. Ouch! We’re also hungry, we must find food.
- Monkey
Day 3:
Today we went swimming and fishing. There were sea-
urchins in the sea. Ouch! My belly was hit by a sea- urchin.
Now we must find fresh water. Who knows how we can carry it!
- Froggy
Day 4:
Today we climbed a volcano. It was tough! We walked,
and ran. Ducky flew at times, I usually swing from the branches
of one tree to another. I felt tired. At the top was a pool of
fresh rain water. We tasted it. Hmm,
190
delicious!We wanted to explore more of the island.
- Ducky
- Monkey
Day 5:
Today we walked across the island. There were banana
trees and coconuttrees. Theywere big and tall. One coconut
fruitfell behind me and hit my leg. Ouch! Now we must make a
shelter. Who knows how can we make one?
- Doggy
Day 6:
Today we made a shelter out of bamboo and palm
leaves. We felt cool and happy in our new home. We had fish,
fruit, milk and water. Now, we must have some music! After all, I
have an animal band.
- Horsey
Day 7:
Today the band practiced on the beach. We saw a ship
on the horizon. We waved our hands but it didn’t see us,
especially me. Who knows who can stop the next ship!
-Turtle
Day 8:
This morning the band played on the beach. We saw
a ship sailing towards us. We made the music louder and
louder. I blew my seashells and the ship stopped. Huh! Did it
hit another rock? Oh, no!
- Carabao
It’s a miracle the ship heard the band and came to
rescue us, We’re finally leaving the island. We’re going
home! I’m going home with new helpful friends.
- Captain Goat
When we arrived at the port, the horse asked, “Would you
like another adventure?” All the animals in the band looked at
each other and said, “Hip hip Hurray! Hip hip Hurray!”
- Carabao
- Captain Goat

The carrot seed grew and grew.
One day the hen went out to check her carrots. She could
not believe her eyes. There was an enormous carrot! She tried to
pull it up but she was not able to do it.
The hen pulled and pulled it again. But she still could not
pull up the enormous carrot. So, she went to the dog. “Help me
pull up that enormous carrot,” she said.
“I will help you,” said the dog. The hen and the dog
pulled and pulled it together. But they still could not pull it up.
So the hen and the dog went to the cat. “Help us pull up
that enormous carrot” she said.
206
“I will help you,” said the cat. All three of them pulled and
pulled it together but the carrot wouldn’t come out of the
ground.
So the hen went to the mouse. “Help us pull up that
enormous carrot,” she said.
“I will help you” said the mouse. The hen, dog, cat, and

TheBundleofSticks
Read and Remember
A. Let us read the following story. As we read it, be ready to
answer the questions that follow.
The Bundle of Sticks
A long time ago, there was a father who had three sons.
He felt sad because his sons always quarrelled among
themselves. He tried to solve their fights with his gentle
words but he failed.
One day, he told his three sons “Bring me a bundle of
sticks.” He placed the bundle of sticks in the hands of his first
son and ordered him, “Break it!” The first son tried with all his
strength but was not able to do it.
“Now son, break the bundle of sticks, he ordered his
second son. The second son tried but he, too, failed. So, the
last son was also asked to break the bundle of sticks. He tried
but failed also like his brothers.
“I’m sorry, father. I couldn’t break the bundle of sticks,” he
said.
The father separated the bundle of sticks. He took the
sticks separately, one by one. He put them in the hands of
his sons. He asked them to break it. Each of the sons was able
to break it. Each of them was able to break the sticks very easily.
Then the father told his sons, “My sons, if you stay
together and help each other, you will be as strong as this
bundle of sticks. But if you are divided among yourselves,
217
you will be broken easilylike each single stick.”
The sons understood what their father meant. “Oh, thank
you, Father!” the sons said in chorus.
“We promise not to quarrel each other anymore,” the
first son said.
“We also promise to be together no matter what
happens,” the second son said.

The horse and his friends went on a trip to an island. “It will be a long, long trip and you have to remember what happens each day”, the horse said. They rode on a ship named Combo. Soon they were far out in the deep sea. Suddenly, they heard a loud cracking sound. The ship hit a big hard rock.
  • 82. 189 Captain Goat told them, “Put on your life vest! We are sinking! We must abandon ship now! Swim, swim for your lives!” The horse and his friends followed Captain Goat’s command. They jumped from the ship and swam to a safe place. The carabao had the monkey on his back. The rat held on tightly to the turtle’s shell. The dog, duck and frog swam together. They all swam until they reached the island. The horse and his friends now have many things to remember. Would you like to find out how long they stayed on the island and how they spent the days there? Here is what they wrote down. Day 1: Thank God, we’re alive! We swam all day and all night until we reached land. Who knows what’s on this island. I wouldn’t know, but first, we have to sleep and rest. - Ratty Day 2: Today, we walked around the island. I climbed a tree and all I saw was the deep blue sea. I told my friends there was nothing but the deep blue sea. When I went down, I felt the hot sand. Ouch! We’re also hungry, we must find food. - Monkey Day 3: Today we went swimming and fishing. There were sea- urchins in the sea. Ouch! My belly was hit by a sea- urchin. Now we must find fresh water. Who knows how we can carry it! - Froggy Day 4: Today we climbed a volcano. It was tough! We walked, and ran. Ducky flew at times, I usually swing from the branches of one tree to another. I felt tired. At the top was a pool of fresh rain water. We tasted it. Hmm,

One coconut fruitfell behind me and hit my leg. Ouch! Now we must make a shelter. Who knows how can we make one? - Doggy Day 6: Today we made a shelter out of bamboo and palm leaves. We felt cool and happy in our new home. We had fish, fruit, milk and water. Now, we must have some music! After all, I have an animal band. - Horsey Day 7: Today the band practiced on the beach. We saw a ship on the horizon. We waved our hands but it didn’t see us, especially me. Who knows who can stop the next ship! -Turtle Day 8: This morning the band played on the beach. We saw a ship sailing towards us. We made the music louder and louder. I blew my seashells and the ship stopped. Huh! Did it hit another rock? Oh, no! - Carabao It’s a miracle the ship heard the band and came to rescue us, We’re finally leaving the island. We’re going home! I’m going home with new helpful friends. - Captain Goat When we arrived at the port, the horse asked, “Would you like another adventure?” All the animals in the band looked at each other and said, “Hip hip Hurray! Hip hip Hurray!” - Carabao - Captain Goat

The Bundle of Sticks A long time ago, there was a father who had three sons. He felt sad because his sons always quarrelled among themselves. He tried to solve their fights with his gentle words but he failed. One day, he told his three sons “Bring me a bundle of sticks.” He placed the bundle of sticks in the hands of his first son and ordered him, “Break it!” The first son tried with all his strength but was not able to do it. “Now son, break the bundle of sticks, he ordered his second son. The second son tried but he, too, failed. So, the last son was also asked to break the bundle of sticks. He tried but failed also like his brothers. “I’m sorry, father. I couldn’t break the bundle of sticks,” he said. The father separated the bundle of sticks. He took the sticks separately, one by one. He put them in the hands of his sons. He asked them to break it. Each of the sons was able to break it. Each of them was able to break the sticks very easily. Then the father told his sons, “My sons, if you stay together and help each other, you will be as strong as this bundle of sticks. But if you are divided among yourselves,
