“Very good! Let’s take a look at the other
examples provided on the presentation.
(Student answers: Ma’am, because it gives an
idea and it states a fact. It also ends with a
period.)

“Those examples are all declarative sentences

4. Pagpapayamang Gawain

To sum up our lesson, let’s have a whole

group game called “FOUR CORNERS AND A
SENTENCE CHAMP”. Class, please lend your “Yes, Ma’am!”
ears to me as I read the instructions. Okay?”

Instructions:
1. I’d hang the sentence banners in each
corner of the classroom.

2. You will choose a corner in which to stand.

3. I will read a sentence.

4. If you think it is the sentence type

designated by your corner, you will sit down.

5. If you are wrong (you stand up in the wrong

corner/ don’t stand up in the correct corner),
you are out of game.

6. Students who are correct get a punctuation

badge (sticker).

7. I will read 10 sentences. The student with

the most stickers is the Sentence Champ.

(students say no)/ (students will ask question)

Any questions? Clarification, class?

Are you ready to play the game?

(Playing the game)

5. Generalization:
“Now, class. Let’s have a recap. We all know
that sentences have four functions. They can
be declarative, interrogative, imperative or
exclamatory. Can you again tell me the four
types of sentences? How about the
differences of each type of sentence?
(Students will provide their answers)
“Let us also bear in mind not only the right
punctuation used in each type of sentence but
also the proper reading of each sentence that
you’ll spill out to avoid misunderstanding to
someone you’re talking to. Is it clear, class?

6. Application Yes, Ma’am!

With the same group, the next activity is you
will study the picture that I am going to
distribute and tell something about it using
the different types of sentences according to
function. Make sure that you will use the four
different types of sentences, one sentence
each type. I will give you will give you 10
minutes to do your work and afterwards, a
volunteer of each group will present it in front
of the class. Is it clear class? “Yes, Ma’am!”

“Okay. Time starts now!”

Give yourselves an around of applause.

IV. Evaluation
(The students will read the sentences)
1.Andrew used a stick to help the poor creature
break free more easily.
2. A frail creature with shriveled wings fell.
 I noticed that the first sentence has
proceeding words following the verb
“used”.
 The second doesn’t have words after the
verb “fell”.

VI. Assignment
Make some sentences using transitive and
Intransitive verbs. Five sentences for transitive
verb and five sentences for intransitive verb.

Transitive verbs are action verbs that have an

object (person, place,thing) to receive that action.
It answers the questions what? And whom? After
the action verb.

Yes, Ma’am!

Stick

The subject
It is the action verb.

Mother understood what was happening.

Cookies

Icecream

His Mother

No, Ma’am!
Intransitive verbs are action verbs, but unlike
transitive verbs, they do not have an object
receiving the action. The questions one may ask
with these forms are “when, where, how, or why”.
