III. CONTENT/CORE CONTENT Composing clear and coherent sentences using appropriate

INTRODUCTION:
Before we begin this week’s lesson, let us first have a recall on the lesson that you have taken up when
you were in Grade 5.
Read the passage below. Let us see if you can remember what the highlighted words are.
Phillip is an incoming grade 6 pupil. He is very excited because finally, it is his last year as an
Elementary pupil. He prepares all things that he will need for the next school year. He brought ball pens,
notebooks and papers. He decided that he will iron his clothes the day before the opening of classes. He
excitedly puts his things inside his bag and kept it in his cabinet. A day before opening of classes, he
covered his notebooks with plastic and pasted his name on his ball pens. After a week, the school year
started. Phillip woke-up early and prepared his things. He did not forget to wear his facemask. He knows
that he needs to wear it every time he goes to school. Phillip is very excited but at the same time he is a bit
afraid because COVID 19 is still there. Even though he felt that way, he still knew that he will learn a lot in
school.
Do you now remember what the highlighted words are? Yes! They are called verbs. Did you notice that
the highlighted verbs happen in different times? These differences in verb tenses will be the focus of our
lesson today.
After going through this lesson, you are expected to compose clear and coherent sentences using
appropriate grammatical structures: tenses of verbs.
DEVELPOMENT: Now analyze the table below, notice that the verbs you have read from the paragraphs
above were categorized as to when the action happened. These are called verb tenses.
HAPPENED HAPPENING WILL HAPPEN
Brought, covered, pasted, woke-up, prepared Prepares, forget, puts Will iron, will learn
Verb has multiple forms called tenses. These tenses are used to show when an action is done. In
composing sentences using the tense of the verb we need to remember the following:

Past Tense: are actions, events or feelings happened at an earlier point in time or already
happened in the past. To change the verb in past tense just add +ed but if the verb ends with e simply add
+d, but for some verbs they change their spelling when they are changed in past tense and they are called
irregular verb.
Ex: Yesterday the Grade 6 pupils wore their facemask when they went to school.
Present Tense: are actions, events or feelings that are currently happening or repeatedly happens.
- If the subject is singular, we use the “be” verb is or we simply add +s or +es to the action verb. If the
subject is plural, we use the “be” verb are and the action verb that we use will remain without adding
anything on it.

Future Tense: are actions, events or feeling that will happen in the future. To change the verb into
its future tense just add “will” before the verb.
 Ex. The Grade 6 pupils will wear their facemask tomorrow in going to school.
