2. Activity

Teacher’s Activity Student’s Activity

(The discussion will follow after
the teacher had done the start up
motivation.)

But before we are going to

understand and delve more about
clause , let us first define what a
clause is. Can someone give me
the definition of a clause?”
“Clauses are groups of words that have
a subject and a predicate. Independent
clauses express a complete thought and
can stand alone as a sentence but
subordinate clauses depend on other
parts of the sentence to express a
complete thought.”

“Very good. A clause is a group

of words that contains both a
subject and a predicate (or a
verb). The smaller sentences that
are linked to form a larger
sentence are called c1auses. A
clause is a word-group which has
the same structure as a sentence
but which is part of a larger
sentence.
“Ma’am Anton sings.”

“Correct.

Some examples of clauses

includes :

I know how to drive a car.

It was my sister’s birthday

yesterday.
Me , ma’am.
Okay , now your turn. Give me an Today is Wednesday.
example of clause .
 I have example too ma’am.
I am pretty.

That is right. Very Good! All of your answers

are correct. All those you have mentioned are
clauses.

Okay , here are more samples :

-I want some cereal.
-Marie likes cats.
-Joseph is a good soccer player.

Why do you consider this as Because it has a subject and a

clauses? verb ma’am.

Well said , because it has a

subject and a predicate and also,
it is a simple sentence.

When I say Charlie eats a It is a clause ma’am.

cupcake, it is a ?

It shows a complete thought .

Because?

A sentence can have just one clause or it

can have multiple clauses. The only defining

characteristic of a clause is that

it must contain a related subject and verb.

Clauses play a variety of roles in English and

because of this, there are numerous ways to

structure and combine them.

 Analysis

“Again what do you call a group

of words that contains a subject
and a predicate?

Abstraction

“Are groups of words that have a

subject and a predicate and is part
of a sentence?”
“It is a clause ma’am.”

Can we consider it a clause if it

doesn’t have a subject?

How about without a predicate?

“Very good. It looks like all of That certain group of words are called

questions? If none, let’s have an
activity.”
“Still no ma’am.”
