Let us pray first

(One student will lead the prayer)

(Checking of Attendance)
say present

(Students raise their hand and say

present as the teacher calls their
name)

Please pick up the pieces of paper under your

chair.

(Students pick up the pieces of paper)

So, how was your New Year?

It was great, Sir!

Thats good! Have you enjoyed your Christmas

and New Year bonding with your family?

Of course, Sir. It was a lot of fun!

Thats good to know. Well, whats your New

Years resolution, class?

(One student raises her hand)

Yes, Noah.

Sir, my New Years resolution is to

come to school early.

Oh! What a nice New Years resolution, Noah!

Now, lets hear one answer from the boys.

(One of the boys raises his hand)

Ok. Glenn
Wow! Thank you for sharing, Glenn. Maybe
thats enough. Lets move on to our new lesson.
For this afternoon, our discussion will be in
relation to our feelings or emotions. Are you
familiar with the song entitled The Greatest Love
of All?
Okay, thats good. So, are you ready to sing and
have fun today?

Sir, I want to be focused more in my

studies.

Yes, Sir!

Yes.

Motivation

Warm Up
Let us sing The Greatest Love of All.
(Students sing)
I believe the children our future
Teach them well and let them lead the way
Show them all the beauty they posses inside
Give them a sense of pride
To make it easier
Let the childrens laughter
Reminders us how we used to be
Okay, class. Now, what can you say about the
song? What does the writer believe in?

Sir, eventhough the song is very

short; I guess its full of emotions.

How could you say so, Carl?

Because Sir I noticed that the song

has a lot to do with our love for
children or mother to her daughter,
father to his son. It has something to
do with our love for our family, thats
the greatest love of all. The writer
believes in what Dr. Jose Rizal said,
The youth is the hope of the
Fatherland.

That was a very good explanation, Carl. You

know what class, the song simply tells us that we
should always consider for us to keep our family
or relationship with others intact, sometimes
showing affection or love towards a person, makes
him feel that he is appreciated and there will be
feeling of belongingness and love especially to
young ones. And also as what have Carl said, the
writer believes that you, the younger generations,
are the hope of our Fatherland. So, class, I want
you to finish your study to accomplish the
challenge that have given by our national hero.
Everybody had just sung very well. Give
yourselves a big hand.

B. Lesson Proper

Presentation of the Lesson

Class, as a review, what is a sentence?
Youre right, Cyril. Our lesson for today is all
about the different kinds of sentences. I have here
four sentences and I need four volunteers to read
these with emotions or feelings and tell us if what
kind of sentences are they
1. The boy goes to school.
2. Why are you crying?
3. Kindly give me a piece of bread.
4. Gosh, this is beautiful!

Sir, a sentence is a word or group of

words that has a complete meaning. It
starts with a capital letter.

(Kimberly)
(Ryan)
(Jennifer)

Discussion
Class, these are sentences, right? But sentences
are classified according to its use. Christina, why
you answered declarative sentence for sentence
no.1?
Yes, you have a point. For sentence no.2, is it
really an interrogative sentence?

Sir, one thing I remembered if a

sentence is in declarative form when
it ends with a period.
Yes, Sir! An interrogative sentence
is a question and ends in a question
mark.

Exactly. I think class, you made an advanced

research about our lesson for today and I really
like it. Good job, class. Okay. Who answered
sentence no.3?

(Ryan raises his hand)

Sir, sentence no.3 is a command
sentence.

A command sentence? Yes, it expresses the

concept of command or request but it is not a
command sentence. We will find it out later. Next,
who answered no.4?

Sir, sentence no.4 is an exclamatory

sentence because it ends with an
exclamation point.

Yes, you are right, Jennifer.

Sentences are classified according to their uses.
They have four kinds or types. And the first kind
of a sentence is what we call declarative
sentence.
A declarative sentence tells something about a
person, thing, place or event. Take note, it usually
ends with a period. Also, it makes a statement.
For example,
1. My mother bakes cookies.
2. Taal Volcano shows signs of activity.

(Post the related visual aids in the

board)

(Read)

Who could me a declarative sentence based from

the song The Greatest Love of All?

I believe the children our future.

Yes, thats right. Is it clear, class? Lets proceed

to the second type of a sentence which is the
interrogative sentence. What is an interrogative
sentence? Please read, Christille.

An interrogative sentence asks

questions. It ends in question mark.
Yes, Sir.

Yes. Interrogative sentences ask a question.

Usually they are Wh questions or Yes No
questions. Remember our lesson last year?

For example,
1. Is your classmate absent?
2. Why are you happy?
Based from the song, give me a line that asks a
question.
Okay. The third type of a sentence is the
imperative sentence. This issues a command or
expresses a request. There are two kinds of
imperative sentence; the request and command.
Request uses the words please or kindly while
Command is like giving order.
For example,
1. Please pass your paper. (Request)
2. Do your homework now. (Command)

(Read)
What should we show to our
children?

(Read)

Give me an example of imperative sentence from

the song

Teach the children well.

Yes, and what kind of imperative sentence?

Command, Sir.

Very good! Make it a request.

Please teach the children well.

Very good! Is it clear?

Yes, Sir.

The last type of a sentence is what we call

exclamatory sentence. It expresses strong feelings
or emotions such as anger, sorrow, grief, surprise,
or the like. It apparently ends with an exclamation
point.
For example,
1. We are here at last!
2. Oh Hamlet, thou has cleft my heart in
twain!

(Read)

Give me an example, class.

Ouch, it hurts!

Very good! So, questions? Are these clear to you?

So, those were the different kinds of sentences
according to their uses.

Yes.

Generalization
Declarative Sentence tells something about
a person, place, thing, or event. It ends
with a period.
Interrogative Sentence asks questions. It
ends in question mark.
Imperative Sentence issues a command or
expresses a request. Its two kinds are
request and command. A request uses
please or kindly while Command is like
giving an order.
Exclamatory Sentence expresses strong
feelings or emotions. It ends with an
exclamation point.
