B. Lesson Proper

Presentation of the Lesson

“Very nice! I am very pleased you were able (Students will give answers)
to finish the task given to you. Now let’s
discuss the answers. Anybody who can tell
me what he/she notices with the following
sentences?”
Discussion

“Very good observation! Now, let me

introduce you the four types of sentences.
(Students will volunteer to read the first
Would someone read this sentence for me?”
sentence: “A declarative sentence states a
fact or opinion and ends with a period.)

“Thank you. Now, let’s take a look at the

sentence that group 1 came up with. This
(Student answers: Ma’am, because it gives
one is a declarative sentence. Could you tell
an idea and it states a fact. It also ends with
me the reason why it’s classified as
a period.)
declarative?

“Very good. Well said. Now, can somebody

give me an example of a declarative
sentence?
(Students will give an example)

“Nice answers! Now let’s talk about the

second type of sentence. Would someone
read the definition written on the board?”

(Student will volunteer to read the first

“Nice one, and could you give me an sentence: Interrogative sentence asks a
example as well? question and ends with a question mark.)

“Very good! It’s easy to understand, right? (The student will give an example.)
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 won’t be
misunderstood when someone listens to
you.”
“Yes, Ma’am!”

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

next type of sentence which is the
imperative sentence. Read the definition.

“Thank you, 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?”
“An imperative sentence expresses a request
or gives a command or direction. It also ends
with a period or exclamation mark.”
“You got it right! Now, I want you to give me
an example of an imperative sentence that
gives an order or direction.”
(A student volunteers and answers: Ma’am
it’s because the sentence do not state a fact
and opinion. It states a request.)
“Oh! Well done! So, what about an
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, please read the
definition.
(Students volunteer to give their answers)

“Thank you! That’s good. Now, I know you’ll

find it very easy to understand its function.
Can somebody give me an example?

(Student reads:”An exclamatory sentence

“Well done class! Do you have any questions conveys emotion and ends with an
or clarifications?” exclamation mark.”)

Analysis

“Nice! I am pleased with your active

participation. Now let’s have a short activity (Students volunteer to give their answers)
before you take the quiz.”

“Using the pictures shown on the board. As a

group, (based on the groupings on the
