Methodology
Introductory Activity  A brief review on the previous day's lesson is made.
( 5 minutes)
Activity  The teacher presents varied questions on the board (Yes-No, Tag
(77 minutes) Question, Open Ended). She'll ask volunteers to read the said
questions. The rest of the class is to observe for any changes in the
rise and fall of their voices as they read the said questions. Their
observations are based on guide questions provided by the teacher.
Analysis  The class will have a discussion on the observations made during
(10 minutes) the listening activity using the guide questions. Learners are then
asked to categorize the 3 questions into RISING or FALLING based
on the way their classmate's voice raise at the end of every question
as they read them.
Abstraction  Here, the teacher asks the class to give more questions that may
(12 minutes) belong to a certain category and ask them to name this specific type
of question. The teacher crystalizes learning through a brief yet
intensive discussion on the types of intonation through given
handouts. Learners are to take down notes during discussion.
Application  By pair, the teacher gives 10 questions and asks the learners to
( 8minutes) categorize the following as to Rising or Rising-Falling Intonation.
Checking follows.
Assessment  Using the given questions in the Application Phase, learners in
(12 minutes) groups of 5 are to say one question orally following the necessary
intonation . A correct intonation is worth 5 points.
Assignment  Learners write 5 questions having rising intonation pattern and 5
(3minutes) questions having falling intonation pattern on a current issue. The
sentences should observe correct subject-verb agreement.
Concluding Activity  A learner is asked to share his/her insights in the day's topic.

Notes on Intonation Types
Falling intonation - a pattern in which our voice falls to a low pitch by the end of a thought group or statement. We use the
falling intonation in the following cases:

1. Short, complete sentences It's so near./It's very far.

2. In seeking information with question words such as what, when, which, who, how, etc. How much is this mug?/What's your
name?
3. In tag questions when the speaker is sure that what he says is right It's a tough day, isn't it?/ It's a wonderful weather, isn't it?
4. For commands and exclamations Leave me alone./Give me my keys.

Rising intonation - a pattern in which our voice rises to a high pitch by the end of a thought group or statement. We use the
rising intonation in the following situations:

1. Statements intended to encourage That's a remarkable thought./You're doing a great job!

2. Questions answerable by 'Yes' and 'No' Do you want to leave?/ Did you see the giraffe?
3. Questions beginning with question words when the speaker wishes to show special interest Where do you live?/ What do you
do for a living?
4. Tag questions when the speaker is not sure that what he says is correct You're sure, aren't you?/ You've checked it, haven't
you?
5. Sentences ending with 'please'; for 'goodbye'; for 'thank you' when used to show gratitude for a simple matter (passing the
dish, etc.) A cup of tea, please?/ Would you pass me that pen, please?
