D. PRESENTATION

For today’s lesson, I am going to

discuss about determiners.
So, what is determiner?

Is anyone in the class can tell what

determiner is?

Anyone?

Yes, Aldrin? I think ma’am, it refers to

something that is specific.

Alright, thank you Aldrin.

Anyway, determiners is a word placed

before a noun to indicate whether you
are referring to something specific or
something of a particular type.

Example: that boy, my car, a soldier,

an ant, the girl and etc.

Did you get it? Yes, ma’am.

 Determiners has 4 types, these are the
Articles, Possessive,
Demonstratives and Quantifiers.

E. DISCUSSION
But let’s focus on Articles.

Shayra, kindly read the definition of Articles are words that

articles. combines with the noun to
indicate the type of
reference being made by a
noun.

Thank you, Shayra!

The letter a, the word an and the word

the are what we called articles.

The article a and the word an are

indefinite articles. Why? Because it is
used to modify non-specific and non-
particular nouns.

So, how about the word the?

Yes, Raquel? The word the is considered

as definite article.

Why?

Yes, Elly?
Very good! Exactly the point. Because it is use to modify
a specific nouns.
The word the is use to modify a specific
or particular nouns.

Did you get the idea class? Yes, ma’am!

Alright! So to elaborate this idea, the

letter a is used before the beginning
with a consonant and singular noun.
Example: a doll, a car, a book, a doctor

Example number 1, please read Gene My father wants me to

Mae. become a doctor.

Thank you, Gene Mae.

Who can give another example?

Yes, Erika? I saw a car yesterday.

Very good, Erika.

Now, the word an is used before a word

beginning with a vowel and vowels are
a,e,i,o,u.
Example: an orange, an umbrella, an
owl

Now, who can read the example?

Yes, Cherry May? Alex is trained to be an
engineer.

So, as you can see the article an is

placed before a word that begins with a
vowel.

Now, can I hear another example from

the class?

Yes, Sheila? I need an ice cream for

tomorrow’s event.

Very good, Sheila!

The last article will be the word the,

which is used to refer a specific person,
thing or idea.
Example: the sky, the Indians, the flute

Who can read example number 1?

Yes, Lovelene? The dog chased the cat.

Very good, Lovelene!

Another example from the class?

Yes, Elly? The movie entitled “Purple

Hearts” is perfect.

Excellent, Elly!

clarifications?

If so, then who can give an example

using the Indefinite Article

Yes, Robgie? A fan yelled as we looked

for an exit.
Very good, Robgie.

How about the Definite article?

Yes, Rucelyn? The letters are dancing.

Alright! Excellent, everyone!

learned a lot from our lesson today.
