2. Presentation (Students will give their answers)

“Wonderful job! I’m delighted you

participated well and was able to perform
well the task given to you. Now, let’s
discuss your answers to further your
understanding. Can anyone tell me what
he/she notices with the following
sentences?”

3. Discussion (Student will volunteer to read the

first sentence: “A declarative

introduce you the four types of ends with a period.)
 sentences. Can someone read this
sentence for me?”

“Thank you, ___. Given that, let’s look at
the sentence that group 1 came up with.
This one is a declarative sentence. Can
you tell me why it’s classified as
declarative?”
(Student answers: Ma’am, the
sentence is a declarative sentence
because it gives an idea and it states
a fact. It also ends with a period)

“Very good. Well said. Now, can (Students answer)

somebody give me an example of a
declarative sentence?”

“Awesome answers! Now, let’s see about (Student will volunteer to read the
the second type of sentence. Would first sentence: “An interrogative

“Nice one and could you give me an (The student will give an example.)
example as well?”

“Very good! It’s easy to understand, “Yes, Ma’am!”

right? Remember that an interrogative
sentence ends with a question mark. The
sentence that group 2 came up with is an
example of it! Did you get it?”

I also want to remind you that you have “Yes, Ma’am!”

to read an interrogative sentence well.
You have to sound like you’re really
asking a question. Don’t just read it as if
it’s a declarative sentence so you won’t
be misunderstood when someone listens
to you.”

“That is wonderful! So let’s proceed to “An imperative sentence expresses a

imperative sentence. Read the definition, direction. It also and ends with a

“Thanks. Now, let’s check the sentence
that group 3 came up with. It ends with a
period but that doesn’t mean it’s a
declarative sentence. Can somebody
explain the class why?”
(A student volunteers and answers:
Ma’am, it’s because the sentence do
not state a fact an opinion. It states a
request.)

“You got it! Perfect! Now, I want you (students volunteer to give their
class to give me an example of an answers)
imperative sentence that gives an order
or direction.”

“Oh! Well done! So, what about an (students volunteer to give their

request?”

“Oh! I could see that you got a little (Student reads: “An exclamatory

function. Nice try for those who gave
their answers! Now let’s discuss the last
type of sentence. Exclamatory sentence.

“Thanks. That’s good. Now, I know you’ll (students volunteer to give their

example?”

“Well done, class! Do you have any (students says no)/(students asks
questions? Any clarifications?” questions)

Analysis (students answer)

“Nice. I am pleased with your

participation. Now let’s have a short
activity before you take the quiz.”

“Using the pictures shown on the board, I (students answer)

want you to form different types of
sentences according to function.”
Picture 1 (student answers:

1. Declarative: Daniel Padilla is an

actor.
2. Interrogative: Is he famous?
3. Imperative: Could you please give
me his phone number?
4. Exclamatory: OMG! It’s I saw
Daniel Padilla!)

Picture 2 (student answers:

1. Declarative: They are asking for

directions.
2. Interrogative: Are they lost?
3. Imperative: Would you please tell
us how to get there?
4. Exclamatory: Help! We are lost!)

Picture 3 (student answers:

1. Declarative: The team won the

contest.
2. Interrogative: Did they win the
contest?
3. Imperative: Let’s clap our hands
for the winning team!
4. Exclamatory: Hurray! We won!)

Picture 4 (student answers:

1. Declarative: She reach the

mountain top.
2. Interrogative: Did she hike alone?
3. Imperative: Please take me to the
mountain top.
4. Exclamatory: At last! I reached the
top!)

Generalization (students answer)

“Now, class, let’s remember that

sentences have four functions. They can
 be declarative, interrogative, imperative
or exclamatory. Can you again tell me the
differences of the four?”

“And let us also remember the right

punctuations to use when forming a
sentence.”

IV. Application
Group Activity: Create a short skit showing the different situations and make sure to use
all types of sentences
Group 1: You are a group of friends visiting one of the Wonders of the World.
Group 2: You are lost while in a trip and met some tourist.
Group 3: A group of friends in a party
Group 4: First day of school
V. Evaluation:

Directions: Read each of the sentences carefully and classify their function. Write DC if it
is declarative, INT if it is interrogative, IMP if it is imperative and EX if it is exclamatory.
