C. Motivation

Okay class before we proceed to our lesson, Okay sir!

we will play a game called “Pass the
message!” Yes sir!

Your groupings will depend on what line you

are in.

The first line will be the Group 1, second line

will be the Group 2 and the rest will follow.

Choose one representative who will be the

first one to receive the statement from me.

Mechanics:
I will tell a phrase and you will pass it
backwards. The last person will be the one
who will tell me the exact word that I have
said.

Are we clear? “Yes Sir”

Okay. Let us begin.

Group 1: “I am definitely fine” Group 1: Sir said, “I am definitely fine.”

Group 2: “Forever do exist” Group 2: Sir said that forever do exist.
Group 3: “Things happen for a reason” Group 3: Sir said “Things happen for a reason”
Group 4: “Positivity is beauty” Group 4: Sir said that positivity is beauty.
Group 5: “Be who you wanted to be” Group 5: Sir said, “Be who you want to be.”

I will give you 3 minutes to pass the message

and then the speaker will proceed here in
front to tell me the exact line.

Are we clear?

(After 3 minutes)

Sir! The first and second statements are quoted

So class, what have you observe with these

School”
Yes, Lara!

Very good Lara!

Reported SPEECH

Reported or indirect speech is usually used to

talk about the past, so we normally change
the tense of the words spoken. We use
reporting verbs like 'say', 'tell', 'ask', and we
may use the word 'that' to introduce the
reported words. Inverted commas are not
used.

She said, "I saw him." (direct speech) = She

said that she had seen him. (indirect speech)

Okay can you give me now an example of

Reported Speech?
Kristian said that Sir Gab is the most good looking
Yes, Lance! in this room.

'SAY' AND 'TELL'

Use 'say' when there is no indirect object:
He said that he was tired.
Always use 'tell' when you say who was being
spoken to (i.e. with an indirect object):

He told me that he was tired.

'TALK' AND 'SPEAK'

Use these verbs to describe the action of
communicating:

He talked to us.

She was speaking on the telephone.

Use these verbs with 'about' to refer to what
was said:

He talked (to us) about his parents.
