Big Ideas :
 Freedom involves choice.
 As Sartre said, it is through choice that man lives an authentic
human life.
 The act of choosing or the ability to choose is valuable
because it gives the human person the reason to make
deliberate actions .
 If a person has the capacity to choose , then that person can
be held responsible over the consequences of his actions.
 If the choice lies on his hands, he would take considerable
time before acting on something because he knows that if the
 consequence is not what he intends to happen , he gets the
blame.
 The person becomes prudent with the choices he makes.

2. Analysis
Ask : 1. How will you describe your ability to make a choice? (difficult , easy,
complex, right or wrong, etc. ) ? Why ?
2. Why is there a need to take a considerable time before making a
choice?
3. Do you consider the possible consequences of your actions when you
make a choice?

3. Abstraction

examples of situations that demonstrate freedom of choice and the
consequences of those choices?
