Everyone takes your seats properly and

listens now for the instructions.

This morning we are going to have an activity

that is called “pick and discuss”. I have here a
box class that contains papers. These papers
have written text with different topics.
All you need to do class, each group will pick
one piece of paper and after that you are
going to discuss, analyze and understand
together with your groupmates then you will
discuss or explain here in front about your
given text.
I will give you 3 minutes to discuss it in your
group and 2 minutes in discussing here in
front. Yes ma’am.

Am I clear?

Now, I will let you pick and just wait for me

to come in your area.

(The teacher will let the students pick)

Your 3 minutes starts now.

Time is up!

Let us welcome the group 1 first and

followed by the group 2.

I love listening to music at night. One

reason that I enjoy it so much is that it
relaxes me. Music has a soothing effect in
a way that it eases my tension and stress.
For example, if I feel mentally exhausted
after reviewing for an exam, I play music
and listen to it for thirty minutes before I
sleep. I can feel it relieves my stress and
improves my mood too. Also, music helps
me fall asleep easily. Listening to music
for 45 minutes makes my muscles relax,
slows down breathing, and tunes my
mind to sleep mode. This results in a
longer better sleep throughout the night.
The life of an influencer is tough. First,
you always need to look presentable to
your followers wherever you are. You
cannot just wear any ordinary clothes
when you are going to the mall because
you do not know if you have some
followers around. Also, influencers need
to update their fans from time to time
either through Youtube, IG, Tiktok, or
Twitter. There has been a report that
several influencers lost a number of
followers because they became idle for a
couple of weeks. Lastly, you always need
to be creative to keep all your followers.
Once they get bored in the content of
your videos or pictures they might
unfollow you. Many influencers do a lot
of tiktok videos, reactions, pranks,
challenges in order to entertain their
followers.

(The teacher will ask follow up questions)

Now, at the count of 10 seconds, I want

you to go back to your proper seats.

C. Presentation
In relation with your activity about a
paragraph that contains different topic, I
want you to stay focus as we are going to
discuss this morning about Paragraph
Development.

But first, let us know our learning

objectives so that we will be guided along
with our discussion. Everybody read.
(Reading of objectives)
At the end of the lesson, you are expected

identify its elements in the discussion;
b. recognizes the significance of knowing
the elements of paragraph development as
well as the process or techniques through
giving insights; and
c. writes a paragraph about a given topic by

D. Discussion

Now, let us define first what is paragraph for

us to able to understand our topic this
morning.

Paragraph- is a group of sentences unified by

one single idea with four basic components,
namely:
a. topic sentence
b. supporting ideas
c. supporting details
d. concluding paragraph (optional)

Now, let us know what is Paragraph

Development.

Paragraph Development- Paragraph

development begins with the formulation of
the controlling idea.

Elements of paragraph development

Unity - in paragraph means that all sentences

revolve around one main idea found in the
topic sentence.

Development - is to provide relevant details

to support or expand the topic sentence in
order to make the paragraph adequately
developed.

Support - a paragraph needs supporting

details in order to fully understand the topic
sentence.
Two kinds of support:
 Supporting idea
 Supporting detail

Coherence- which also means ‘clarity of

expression’. That is to make these sentences
flow logically and smoothly; not disconnected
or carrying isolated thoughts, so ideas
become much clearer to the readers.

5 steps process/techniques to paragraph

development
Step 1: Decide on a guiding idea for the
Yes ma’am.
paragraph and create a topic sentence.

Step 2: Explain the guiding idea.

Step 3: Give an example (or multiple

examples).

Step 4: Explain the example(s).

Step 5: Complete the paragraph's idea or
draw a conclusion.

Do you understand class?

E. Application

Now, let’s have an activity. This activity will

test if you really understand our discussion
about paragraph development.

At the count of 10, I want you to go to your

groups and form a circle. Group 1 will stay at
this area and group 2 will stay here. Same
group during our activity earlier.

10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1

Take your seats now and listen.

Each group should choose a secretary to list

the members of the group then give it to me.

Each group will choose one representative to Yes ma’am.

pick a paper here inside the box. All you need
to do in this activity class is that you are Yes ma’am.
going to make a paragraph base on the topic
that you will get later on. Then you need to
discuss and explain your task here in front.

This is for 15 points and your score will

depend on how you are going to present
your task as well as on how will you make it.

I will give you 8 minutes to do your activity

and 2 minutes in presenting your task.

Do you get me?

Now, are you ready?

Okay, representative of each group come

here in front.
 Topic 1:
“Reasons of teenage pregnancy”

“COVID 19”

Timer starts now. (Students answer may vary)

Time is up!

Let us have first the group 1 and next will be

the group 2.

(The students will present their task and the

teacher will give scores.)

F. Generalization

What is paragraph development?

Why do we need to know the elements of

paragraph development as well as the
process or techniques?

As a student, paragraphs are crucial to

writing because they give us a structure for
arranging our thoughts in a logical sequence.
A precise paragraph structure assists in
directing the reader through your written
work.

Okay very good students. It seems like you

really understand our discussion class.

To evaluate your knowledge, let’s have

another activity.
