Teacher’s Activity Students Activity

Good Morning Class! Good Morning Sir!

So how was your day so far? So far we are great

That is good to hear, because today, Yes Sir!

we are having a new day for learning.

I will divide the class into two, so (The students follow the
please count 1 and 2. instruction)

A. Motivation
So I have here 3 group of pictures that Yes Sir!
you need to arrange according to the
correct order base on the photo that it
shows. The group who form with the
correct arrangement will get a plus
points later on our test. Are you all
ready?
(Students are given 3 minutes to
answer the problem)

Very Good! It seems that the task is

very easy to all of you. Did you have
fun?
Do you now have any idea what would
be our topic for today?
Very Good!
Yes Sir! We have fun in discussing
what picture should come first and
then to last.
I think our topic for today is all
about arranging events in logical
order using transition/signal words.

B. Presentation

Logical Connectors
 Logical connectors are used to
join or connect two ideas that
have a particular relationship.
 These relationships can be:
sequential (time), reason and
purpose, adversative
(opposition and/or unexpected
result), and condition.
 Focus only on connectors that
show CHRONOLOGICAL,
 LOGICAL SEQUENCE, and
SUMMATION.
 NUMERICAL – in the first place,
first, secondly, initially
 BEGINNING – at first, to start
with, to begin with, for a start,
first of all, initially
 CONTINUATION – previously,
after this, afterwards,
eventually, subsequently,
before this, next, then
 CONCLUSION – finally,
eventually, at last, in the end,
last but not the least, as a final
point, lastly, to conclude
 SUMMATION – in conclusion, to
sum up, to summarize, in
summary, in sum.

What are the different sequence The different sequence are

connectors? numerical, beginning, continuation,
conclusion, and summation.
Very Good!

Do you think these connectors have No, these sequence connectors

the same function? have different uses and functions
when use in a sentence of
paragraph.
Brilliant!

What do you think is the purpose of Sequence connectors are use in a

Sequence connector? sentence or in a paragraph to show
coherence.
Excellent!

For further understanding on how to

use sequence connectors, the students
will watch a video.

How is the sequence connector used in The sequence connector used to

the sentence presented in the video? connect two ideas in the sentence

Very Good!

For further understanding on how the

connectors function, the student will
watch a video.

Now that you know how to use

sequence connector, Are you ready to
have a quiz?
