 Analysis

The teacher will ask the following

questions to the learners:

 Now, Mr. _____ from the  Yes Ma’am.

sentences in no. 1, did the
sentences change from direct to
reported speech?
 Great answer mr. ! Now Ms. ----
What can you say in the sentence
no. 2? Did the sentences change
from direct to reported?
 Very good, How about sentence
no. 3? Did it change from direct
reported?
 And Mr -------, how about
sentence no. 4? Do you believe
that there is an error or mistake in
the fourth sentence?
What is it?
 That is brilliant!
How about the last sentence no. 5?
Did it change from direct
reported?
So now, what can you observe to
the first sentences in each
number?
Because in the first sentence
it is stated what was mai said
exactly while in the second it
is stated what was mai said
but not directly.
 Yes Ma’am!
 Yes Ma’am!
 Yes Ma’am, In my own
opinion Yes!
I think no. 4 was changed
from direct to reported,
however the word will
should change because it was
already stated to another
person
 Yes Ma’am!
 Ma’am the sentences stated
exactly the same as what the
speaker said.

 Very good observation class! How  They were all stated by the
about the second sentences in each other person as if someone is
number? reporting what was the other
person reported.
 Great Job everyone! You are all
amazing!
 Abstraction
Inter-action Discussion (Teacher and
learners) Ma’am direct speech are sentences
are saying exactly what someone has
Now class, from the sentences that you said.
read, who among you can tell what is
direct speech?
Very good! And based on the sentences Ma’am all of them has a quotation
that we had in our activity, can you mark(“”)
observe to direct speech?
That awesome observation!
Meaning direct speech is a sentence that
gives a statement or thought in its original
form according to how the speaker said it.
And in other reference it is sometimes
called (quoted speech).Here it appears
what a person says within quotation marks
(“…..”)
For example:
Page 3
“ He planted rice in our land,” replied Pare
Crispin.”
“Many men like to borrow rice from me,”
Mang Cesar said.

Now how about reported speech, who can

tell me what is reported speech? Based on Ma’am reported speech doesn’t use
these given examples: quotation marks to state what was
other person said.
Pare Crispin replied that he planted rice in
their land.
Mang Cesar said that many men like to
borrow rice from him.

Very good! Great answer!

Reported speech is a sentence that
expresses the content of a statement
without quoting just like what is done in
direct speech. It involves reporting or
describing what was said. It doesn’t have
to word by word and the tense in the
sentences usually changes too. This is
because when we use reported speech, we
usually talking about time in the past
(because obviously the person who spoke
originally spoke in the past).
The verbs therefore usually have to be in
the past too. The pronoun (I) will change
to ( he/ she.)

Direct speech
“ I’m going to cinema” ,he said

Reported speech
He said he was going to cinema.

To change a direct speech to reported

speech and vice versa, you need to take
note of the following important details the
tense of the verb (in a past tense) and
pronouns need to change like ( “I” to
“he/she”)

For example:
Direct speech: Maya said, I like the
painting of Leonardo da Vinci”

Reported speech: Maya said that she liked

the painting of Leonardo da Vinci.

Based on the example what happen to the

sentence when we change it to reported Ma’am the statement has the word
speech? (that) and the word like changed into
past tense (liked).

Great observation!

Page 4
Mr. ….,read this sentence
Direct speech: “I already ate,” said
Crispin.
Reported speech: Crispin said that he
already ate.

What have you observe on the sentences? Ma’am, the pronoun I changed into
he and there is the word said in
which it is in the past tense and ate
still in the past tense.

Great observation!

Now, class in order for you to change the

sentences from direct to reported and vice
versa, you need to take note of the
following important details the tense of the
verb (in a past tense) and pronouns need to
change like ( “I” to “he/she)

Do you have any question? None ma’am.

 Application:
