“Unlock the Mystery Box”

The students will have to answer the question in each mystery box
to unlock it and claim their prize. Once all the mystery boxes were
unlocked, the topic will be revealed.

B. Development
The mystery box will direct the lesson to the topic, “Subject-
Verb Agreement”.

The teacher will introduce a friend, “Starla”, who will be with

the class in their journey around the world in search for the missing
stars. Since English, as a universal language, is used world-wide,
the class will visit several countries to help “Starla” find the other
stars. In each country that they will visit, there is a rule that they
need to follow to gain stars.

United States of America is the first stop.

Rule #1: If the subject is singular, the verb must be singular.
If the subject is plural, the verb must be plural.
Examples: She writes every day.
They write every day.
 Singapore is the second destination.
Rule #2: When the subject of the sentence is composed of two or
more nouns or pronouns connected by and, use a plural verb.
Examples: The doctoral student and the committee members write
every day.

Malaysia is the third country to visit.

Rule #3: When there is one subject and more than one verb, the
verbs throughout the sentence must agree with the subject.
Examples: Interviews are one way to collect data and allow
researchers to gain in-depth understanding of participants.

Finland is the fourth stop.

Rule #4: Intervening words like together with, in addition to, along
with, as well as, including and similar constructions following the
subject do not affect the number of the subject.
Examples: The student, as well as the committee members, is
excited. Strategies that the teacher uses to encourage
classroom participation include using small groups and
clarifying expectations.

Argentina is the fifth destination.

Rule #5: When two or more singular nouns or pronouns are
connected by "or" or "nor," use a singular verb.
Examples: The chairperson or the CEO approves the proposal
before proceeding.

South Africa is the sixth and last stop.

Some may be singular or plural DEPENDING on the noun or
pronoun they refer to.
