3. Presentation
At the Park

4. Concept Discussion
Based on the picture above, the students will compose sentences based on their choice in a part
of the picture. Each student is required to write one sentence per kind of sentence. The teacher
discusses the different kinds of sentences, how they are formed and their uses in effective
communication.

5. Explanation
Based from students’ answers on the concept discussion, the sentences will be used for the
explanation part.
These are the possible sentences:
 Two men are playing basketball.
 What are the things the ladies sitting in the benches talk about?
 Ah! It’s so hard to perform the sit and reach exercise!
 Pass me the ball.
What Are the Four Types of Sentences?
 Declarative sentence
 Imperative sentence
 Interrogative sentence
 Exclamatory sentence
And there are only three punctuation marks with which to end a sentence:
 Period
 Question mark
 Exclamation point
Using different types of sentences and punctuation, students can vary the tone of their
writing assignments and express a variety of thoughts and emotions.
What is a declarative sentence?
A declarative sentence simply makes a statement or expresses an opinion. In other words, it
makes a declaration. This kind of sentence ends with a period.
Examples of this sentence type:
“I want to be a good writer.”  (makes a statement)
“My friend is a really good writer.” (expresses an opinion)
What is an imperative sentence?
An imperative sentence gives a command or makes a request. It usually ends with a period but
can, under certain circumstances, end with an exclamation point.
Examples of this sentence type:
“Please sit down.”
“I need you to sit down now!”
What is an interrogative sentence?
An interrogative sentence asks a question. This type of sentence often begins with who, what,
where, when, why, how, or do, and it ends with a question mark.
Examples of this sentence type:
“When are you going to turn in your writing assignment?”
“Do you know what the weather will be tomorrow?”
What is an exclamatory sentence?
An exclamatory sentence is a sentence that expresses great emotion such as excitement,
surprise, happiness and anger, and ends with an exclamation point.
Examples of this sentence type:
“It is too dangerous to climb that mountain!”
“I got an A on my book report!
