Francisco Icasiano was a Filipino author who also went by the more extended
name of Francisco "Mang Kiko" Bayan Icasiano. Amongst his first literary works
were a series of essays written in the Sunday Tribune Magazine. The essays,
written in English, were entitled 'From my Nipa Hut' and were satirical or comedic
in style and tried to reflect the culture of the common Tao people in the
Philippines. The essays seemed to look at the culture in the Philippines and,
whilst comedic in style, presented opinion on what life was like in the Philippines.
These essays have subsequently been collated into a book entitled 'Horizons
from my Nipa Hut'. The book's most famous essay is called 'The World in a Train'

D. WHILE READING ACTIVITIES

The students will watch the video retrieved from YouTube. The video is about 11-
12 minutes long.

After watching the video, the students will be asked to read the essay that will be
projected on the PowerPoint Presentation and answer the following questions
orally or via incall messages: (20-25 minutes)

(After reading the 4th paragraph, the teacher will ask the questions below)

1. Who is the narrator of the story? Answer: Mang Kiko/Author

2. Why did the writer prefer to take the train on his journey to Bulacan? He liked
the train better than the bus because he could enjoy some comfort in the coach
and because trains sometimes leave and arrive according to schedule.

(After the 8th paragraph)

3. Why is the 8th paragraph most caught Mang Kiko’s attention? It’s because the
author was startled by the way the short but efficient father rode the train with
such cheerfulness.

After the 14th paragraph

4. Do you think the paragraph/scene below is funny? Why?

“Occasionally, when the child's crying rose above the din of the locomotive and
the clinkety-clank of the wheels on the rails, the father would jog about a bit
without blushing, look at the bumps on his child's head, shake his own, and
move his lips saying, "Tsk, Tsk." And nothing more.”

(Answers may vary)

5. What is the essay about, and for what purpose as the author seems to be
implying? The author proves that human sympathy operates in wonderful ways
because on the train, he cares to observe people even if they are strangers to
him.
