 Getting the students’ attention

a.2. Review

Before moving on to our new lesson, let us have

a short recapitulation on the lesson we had last
meeting. What was it again? We discussed about the parts of a sentence.

Yes. Exactly! Who can tell the class the parts of

a sentence? Yes? The parts of a sentence are subject and predicate.

Great! So what is a subject? The subject of a complete sentence is who or what

the sentence is about.

Very good. How about a predicate? Yes? The predicate tells about the subject.

Excellent. Who can give an example of a

complete sentence? Yes? 1. The dog ran.
2. The dog ran after the cat.

Very good. I believe you have understood our

lesson about parts of a sentence. So today, we
are going to proceed to our new lesson by having
a group activity. Are you excited? Yes, ma’am.

a.3. Motivation

I will divide the class into 4 groups. To know

your groups, I will let you pick from this bowl
your group name.
(The teacher will assign the group names:
Petmalu, Werpa, Lodi, and Rapsa)

Each group will be given pieces of paper with

words written on them. They will be asked to
arrange the words in order to make a sentence.

They will come up with the following sentences:

1. Philippines is rich in natural resources.

2. When did you go visit the white island?
3. Please give the certificate. (Students will give their answers)
4. I can’t believe it! We won!

Very nice! I am very pleased you were able to

finish the task given to you. Now let’s discuss
your answers. Anybody who can tell me what
he/she notices with the following sentences?

B. Presentation

Very good observation! Now, let me introduce

you the four types of sentences according to
function.

C. Discussion

Would someone read this sentence for me?”

(Student will volunteer to read the first sentence: “A
declarative sentence states a fact or opinion and ends
Thanks. Now, let’s take a look at the sentence with a period.)
that group 1 came up with. This one is a
declarative sentence. Could you tell me the
reason why it’s classified as declarative?
(Student answers: Ma’am, because it gives an idea
Very good. Well said. Now, can somebody give and it states a fact. It also ends with a period.)
me an example of a declarative sentence?
(Students answer)
Nice answers! Now let’s talk about the second
type of sentence. Would someone read the
definition flashed on the screen?
(Student will volunteer to read the sentence: An
interrogative sentence asks a question and ends with
Nice one and could you give me an example as a question mark.)
well?
(The student will give an example.)
Very good! It’s easy to understand, right?
Remember that an interrogative sentence ends
with a question mark. The sentence that group 2
came up with is an example of it! Did you get it?
Yes, Ma’am!
I also want to remind you that you have to read
an interrogative sentence well. You have to
sound like you’re really asking a question. Don’t
just read it as if it’s a declarative sentence so you
Friday, January 19, 2018 Prepared by: Meth V. Tanquis

won’t be misunderstood when someone listens

to you. Yes, Ma’am!
(The teacher will give example, preferably in
vernacular.)

That is wonderful! So let’s proceed to the next

type of sentence which is the imperative
sentence. Read the definition, ____________. An imperative sentence expresses a request or gives a
command or direction. It also and ends with a period
or exclamation mark.
Thanks. Now, let’s check the sentence that
group 3 came up with. It ends with a period but
that doesn’t mean it’s a declarative sentence.
Can somebody explain the class why? (A student volunteers and answers: Ma’am, it’s
because the sentence do not state a fact or an opinion.
It states a request.)
You got it! Perfect! Now, I want you class to
give me an example of an imperative sentence
that gives an order or direction. (Students volunteer to give their answers.)

Oh! Well done! So, what about an imperative

sentence that expresses a request? (Students volunteer to give their answers.)

Oh! I could see that you got a little confused

with the imperative sentence but I am glad you
were able to get its function. Nice try for those
who gave their answers! Now let’s discuss the
last type of sentence. Exclamatory sentence.
Read the definition, ___________. (Student reads: An exclamatory sentence conveys
emotion and ends with an exclamation mark.)
Thanks. That’s good. Now, I know you’ll find it
very easy to understand its function. Can
somebody give me an example? (Students volunteer to give their answers)

Well done, class! Do you have any questions?

Any clarifications? (students says no)/(students asks questions)

D.Generalization

Now, class, let’s remember that sentences have

four functions. They can be declarative,
interrogative, imperative or exclamatory. Can
you again tell me the differences of the four?

And let us also remember the right punctuations

to use when forming a sentence.

E. Application

Nice. I am pleased with your participation. Now

let’s have a short activity to deepen our
understanding on the topic.

(With the same group) Using the pictures shown

on the board, I want you to form different types
of sentences according to function. (The students one by one pick from the bowl.)
Friday, January 19, 2018 Prepared by: Meth V. Tanquis

Picture 1 (Petmalu) (Student answers:

1. Declarative: Daniel Padilla is an actor.

2. Interrogative: Is he famous?
3. Imperative: Please give me his phone number.
4. Exclamatory: OMG! It’s I saw Daniel Padilla!)

Picture 2 (Werpa) (Student answers:

1. Declarative: They are asking for directions.

2. Interrogative: Are they lost?
3. Imperative: Please tell us how to get there.
4. Exclamatory: Help! We are lost!)

Picture 3 (Lodi) (Student answers:

1. Declarative: The team won the contest.

2. Interrogative: Did they win the contest?

1. Declarative: She reach the mountain top.

2. Interrogative: Did she hike alone?
3. Imperative: Please take me to the mountain top.
4. Exclamatory: At last! I reached the top!)

F. Evaluation

Directions: Read each sentence carefully and

identify their function. Write DC if it is
declarative, INC if it is interrogative, IMC if it
is imperative and EC if it is Exclamatory.

1. Samar Island is known for its beautiful 1. DC

caves and water falls. 2. INC
2. Did the organization approve her 3. INC
proposal? 4. EC
3. Isn’t her voice magnificent! 5. IMC
4. It’s a baby boy! 6. EC
5. Call the insurance agent, please. 7. INC
6. Watch out for that car! 8. DC
7. What harm did the delay cause? 9. INC
