Presentation

“Very nice! I am very pleased you were able to

finish the task given to you. Now let’s discuss your
answers. Anybody who can tell me what he/she
notices with the following sentences?” (Students will give their answers)

Discussion

“Very good observation! Now, let me introduce you (Student will volunteer to read the first sentence:
the four types of sentences. Would someone read “A declarative sentence states a fact or opinion
this sentence for me?” and ends with a period.)

“Thanks. Now, let’s take a look at the sentence that

group 1 came up with. This one is a declarative (Student answers: Ma’am, because it gives an
sentence. Could you tell me the reason why it’s idea and it states a fact. It also ends with a
classified as declarative?” period)

“Very good. Well said. Now, can somebody give me

an example of a declarative sentence?” (Students answer)

“Nice answers! Now let’s talk about the second type (Student will volunteer to read the first sentence:
of sentence. Would someone read the definition “An interrogative sentence asks a question and
presented on the screen?” ends with a question mark.)

“Nice one and could you give me an example as

well?” (The student will give an example.)

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

I also want to remind you that you have to read an “Yes, Ma’am!”
interrogative sentence well. You have to sound like
Teacher
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 the next
type of sentence which is the imperative sentence.
Read the definition, ____________.”
“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?”
“You got it! Perfect! Now, I want you class to give
me an example of an imperative sentence that
gives an order or direction.”
“Oh! Well done! So, what about an imperative
sentence that expresses a request?”
“Oh! I could see that you got a little confused with
the imperative sentence but I am glad you were
able to get its function. Nice try for those who gave
their answers! Now let’s discuss the last type of
sentence. Exclamatory sentence. Read the
definition, ___________.”
“Thanks. That’s good. Now, I know you’ll find it
very easy to understand its function. Can somebody
give me an example?”
“Well done, class! Do you have any questions? Any
clarifications?”
Analysis

use when forming a sentence.” (students answer)
