People, objects, plants, animals, transport, fruits and vegetables, food and drinks are
classified under the part of speech that is called Nouns. We have learned that nouns can
be singular or plural.
We can use the structure ‘There is’ and ‘There are’ to write sentences about nouns. Let’s
call the structure Formula TiTa.
Example:

Before we start writing, let’s practice some basic grammar items first.
I. Articles: a, an
Notes:
The article ‘a’ and ‘an’ means ‘one’.
The article ‘a’ is placed before a word that starts with the consonant sound.
Example: a boy, a girl, a cat, a rabbit
The article ‘an’ is placed before a word that starts with the vowel sound.
Example: an old man, an old woman, an orange, an apple
computer
boy
cat
umbrella
Eskimo
elephant
tiger
pyramid
tall boy
old woman
old man
Iban boy
experiment
apple
orange

II. Be Verb
31
NAME :…………………………………………………… CLASS :…………………………….
We add the suffix ‘-ing’ to root verbs when we want to write sentences using Continuous
Tense. When the verbs with the suffix ‘-ing’ is put after the ‘be verbs’ (‘is’ or ‘are’), it will
become Present Continuous Tense.
When do we use Present Continuous Tense? We use Present Continuous Tense when we
want to write about something that is happening now, at this moment.
It is best to use Present Continuous Tense when writing sentences for Section A of UPSR
Paper 2.
For most verbs, we can directly add the suffix ‘-ing’ at the end.
Examples: play – playing, read – reading, sleep – sleeping
For verbs that end with the letter ‘e’, we have to omit the letter ‘e’ first before adding
the suffix ‘-ing’.
Examples: write – writing, arrange – arranging, bake – baking
Sometimes, we have to double the final letters of some verbs before we can add the
suffix ‘-ing’ at the end.
Examples: run – running, swim – swimming, put – putting
The best way to identify which rule to apply when adding the suffix ‘-ing’ at the end of
verbs is by reading a lot of English books, and by doing a lot of grammar practices.

Sentences 2 in both examples above are complex sentences. We can write complex
sentences by adding a clause that describes the subject in the sentence. Note that the
article ‘a’ is changed to ‘the’. When a subject is described, it becomes specific.

Homework: Find as many adjectives as you can. List the adjectives in your vocabulary book.
51
NAME :…………………………………………………… CLASS :…………………………….
Back to writing!
Now, how do we use adjectives in our writing? There are three simple ways.
Example 1:
Sentence 1:
There are several tables at the library.
Sentence 2:
There are several big tables at the spacious
library.
(big – besar, spacious – luas)
In the example above, the adjective ‘big’ is added before the noun ‘tables’, and the
adjective ‘spacious’ is added before the noun ‘library’.
Example 2:
Sentence 1:
A few pupils are reading books.
Sentence 2:
A few hardworking pupils are reading books.
(hardworking – rajin)
In this example, the adjective ‘hardworking’ is added before the noun ‘pupils’ to describe
the pupils in the picture.
