IV. PROCEDURE
A. Pre-Discussion Classroom Management
1. Daily Routine Prayer/Greetings
Checking of Attendance

2. Review The students will present and check their

answers in their assignment about Gerunds and
 Infinitives. The teacher will ask about Gerunds
and Infinitives again to check students
understanding of the previous lesson.
Questions:
1. What is a gerund?
2. What is an infinitive?

3. Motivation Shapes will be presented on the board. Each

shape corresponds to some of the parts of
speech (nouns, verbs, adjectives and
prepositions). The students need to click (in the
power point presentation) the same number of
words depending on the sides of the shape. After
choosing the words, ask some students to create
sentences using these words. If they click the
wrong answer a prompt will appear telling them
that it is incorrect.

Legend:
Noun (Heptagon- 7 sides)

Verb (Hexagon- 6 sides)

Adjectives(Pentagon- 5 sides)

Preposition(Parallelogram- 4 sides)

B. During Discussion 1. A video about parallelism or parallel structure

will be shown and questions will follow.

are grammatically the same; or similar in
their construction, sound, meaning, or

 Also known as parallel structures, uses the

more ideas have the same level of
importance.
