“Will you please read the story class?”

--------------------------------------------------

“Everybody read the jobs of an interjection” (READ)

“Always remember class that the interjections are

words or phrases that express strong emotions or
sudden feelings. They are usually set apart from the
rest of the sentence by an exclamation mark or a
comma. Interjections are not grammatically related
to the other parts of the sentence.”

“Very good. Interjections it is! Now to know more

about interjections class.”

Lesson proper
a. Activity
“Now we are done explaining interjections.
OK, I have here a story from an unknown author it is
title “Three Birds on a Wire” Please get one and
Each group of students will receive a copy of story
pass”

“What I want you to do is, while we are reading the

story, I want you to underline the interjections that
are used in the story, tell how it is being used and
“Yes Miss!”
the proper punctuation mark that is used. You work
as a team, the same team and discuss it later in
front, is that clear?”

“Now let’s start”

Three birds on a wire

A teacher was helping her third-grade students with

a math problem. After choosing a student in
particular, she recited the following story:
“Hmmmm! Billy, there are three birds sitting on a
telephone wire. A man with a gun shoots one of the
 birds. How many birds are left in the wire?”
The boy pauses. “Aha! None,” he replied
thoughtfully.
“Oh dear! No, no, no. let’s try it again, maybe you
didn’t hear me correctly” the teacher says patiently.
She holds up three fingers. “There are three birds
sitting on a wire. A man with a gun shoots one,” she
puts down one finger, “how many birds are on the
wire?”
“Uh-oh! none,” the boy says with authority
The teacher sighs. “Hey! Tell me how you came up
with that.” “Hmm, it’s simple.” Says the boy, “after
the man shot one bird, the noise from the gun
scared the other two away.”
“Well,” she says, “Ha-ha! That’s not technically
correct, but I like the way you think.”
“Thanks,” chimes the boy, “now, let me ask you a
question” “Okay,” she said guardedly. “If you had
three apples and four oranges in one hand and four
apples and three oranges in the other hand, what
would you have?” he asked innocently. The teacher
looked at the boy’s angelic face and writhed in
agony, turning three shades of red.
“Well, uhm,” she gulped and in a barely audible
whisper relied, “Bingo! Of course, I have many
fruits”
“NO!” he says with surprise, “the answer is you have
a very large hand, but I like the way you think”
-the end-

b. Analysis
“I hope you enjoy the story. Group 1 point out the
interjections, group 2 tell us in what way the Groups will present their work in front
interjections are being used and group 3 the proper
punctuation mark that is used in the interjection”
Choose one that will present your group work.”

c. Abstraction

“Well done class, you are all right” “interjections are

divided into following 6 types on the basis of way
they express, greeting, joy, surprise, approval,
attention, and sorrow, when used in sentences.
(Shows example for each type) When we use
interjections, we should always follow them with an
appropriate punctuation mark”

“You are all fast learners! Let us give ourselves a

round of applause” (Students applaud)

d. Application

Do what is asked.

“Make five simple sentences that has

interjections.”

“Finish or not pass your papers in front and both

sides kindly collect your classmates’ papers. “
