a. Review
Class, what was our topic last
meeting? Sir, our topic last meeting was critiquing a literary
selection based on different approaches.

Okay, very good! What are the 6

critical approaches? Sir, the 6 critical approaches are:
Structuralist/formalist, moralist, Marxist,
feminist, historical, and reader-response.

Great! Now, class I have a question,

in the story or excerpt of ‘Why
Woman Wash the Dishes’ what is the
best approach to apply?
Sir, the best critical approach to apply is the
Feminist. Since the text focuses on the woman in
the story.

Amazing! You got it. The story ‘why

woman wash the dishes’ focuses on
the story of the lady which is the main
character in the text. Do you have a
 question about the topic last meeting? None, sir.

I guess you are all knowledgeable of

the topic last meeting.

b. Motivation
Let us have activity. Are you familiar
with “pass the message” game?
Yes, sir!

groups.
(Students divided into 3 groups)
A message is given to the first person
in a line of people and then they are
instructed to pass the message on by
whispering it in the ear of the next
person in line. Understood?

Group 1: understanding Understanding

Group 2: technical Technical
Group 3: terms Terms
c. Presentation of the lesson

Class, what have you observed about

the words written on the board?
It is a sentence sir.

Yes, it is. What was the sentence you

have observed. Can you read it for
me?

Understanding Technical Terms.

Correct! It only means that, that
would be our topic…

Topic for today, sir.

You got it! That is our topic for today,

class!

At the end of this lesson, students will

be able to:

General Objectives:
 Most Essential Learning
Competency: Distinguish

(EN10V-Iva-30)

Specific Objectives

a. Identify technical term;

b. Differentiate prefixes and suffixes
; and
c. Create sentence using prefixes
and suffixes terms.

B. Developmental Activities
a. Activity

Before we proceed to our discussion,

let us have first an activity. I will group you
into two. These rows will be the group 1 and
those rows will be the group 2.

Since you already have your group, go to your

groupmates.
(Students proceed to their designated group)
The name of our activity today is “MATCH
ME”.
All you have to do is to match the prefixes and
suffixes into the root words, match the
singular and plural words and match the
system words to the example word.
Understood?

I will give you 10 minutes to finish

your activity Yes, sir!

Give yourself a round of applause.

b. Analysis
Now, class. Do you think your answers are (Students clapped)
correct?

Why? Yes, sir.

Sir, because prefix should be at the beginning of

the word, while the suffix should be found at the
end of the word. And of course, singular terms are
Okay, very good! Prefix can be found at supposed to have a plural term and also the
the beginning of the root word while suffix system and its example.
can be found at the end of the root word. But
remember that not all words have prefixes
and suffixes. For example: dog, chair, and
run.
Those verbs and nouns are the words that you
could not add suffix or prefix.
I hope you already have a prior
knowledge about the activity that we
conducted.

c. Abstraction
I have a question, what is technical terms
in your own idea.
Technical terms are words that has a different
meaning from its root words.
Okay very good! So here is the definition of
technical terms. Please read.
Technical terms are words or phrases that people
use in specific career field.
Precisely! These terms can be any word or
phrases that has a specialized meaning within
a particular field of expertise. For example
please read.
 Example:
There were no wild horses in the area, or
The area of the square was 9 cm.
In the first sentence, “area” just means the
location you are in; there are wild horses near
where you are. In the second sentence, “area”
is a technical word; it has a specific meaning
when it’s used in mathematics. In
mathematics, “area” means “the size of a
surface”.
Let us come now to the common
components of technical terms. please
read.

common components of technical terms. Many

Technical terms often use prefixes and
suffixes to provide additional information
to a word. Now, please read the definition
of prefix.
technical words in English have their origins in
Greek and Latin words. They are often made up
of several components, and knowing these will
help you to remember them or to work out their
meaning.

Prefix – found at the beginning of a word

The function of prefix is to elaborate, quality or

change the meaning of a word.

For example:
1. Prefix: an-
Meaning: no, not, without
Word: anaerobic
Word meaning: without air
2. Prefix: ante-
Meaning: before
Word: antecedent
Word meaning: existing before
3. Prefix: hemi-
Meaning: half
Now, can you give another example of term Word: hemisphere
using prefixes? Word meaning: half a sphere

Okay, very good! Let us proceed to the suffix. Sir, impossible. The prefix is im- which means is
Please read. “not or opposite of”.

Suffix – found at the end of a word. Suffix cannot

be used alone, but when added after a word it
Suffixes can indicate the type of word, for completes the word. I Its function is to form or
example ‘communicative’ is an adjective,
change the meaning of the word.
‘communication ‘is a noun, and
‘communicate’ is a verb. They may also
describe a state, quality, action or relation.

Here are the other example. Please read.

Suffix: -itis

Meaning: inflammation
Word: dermatitis
Word meaning: skin inflammation

Suffix: -logy

Meaning: study of

Word: anthropology
Word meaning: study of the human race

Suffix: -oid

Now class, can you give another example Meaning: form

or word using suffix? Word: cuboid
Word meaning: cube-shaped

Sir, endless. The suffix is ‘less-‘and the

Alright! meaning is without.
Now, let us move on to the noticing
common word structures. Please read.

There are often common ways of forming

technical words in a discipline. While there
are inconsistencies to general rules, knowing
It only means that not every plural word how technical words are usually structured
can help you both learn and recall them.
ends with ‘s’.
Here are the following examples: please
read it out loud.

.
1. Singular: one vertebra
Plural: two vertebrae
2. Singular: a protozoon
Plural: many protozoa
3. Singular: a hypothesis
Plural: several hypotheses
Okay, very good! now, can you give a
word singular with plural term?

Great! Sir, nucleus and nuclei. Nucleus is singular

Let us proceed to the noticing how and nuclei is the plural.
technical terms are classified. Read the
definition.

Each discipline may use its own way or ways

of classifying its content, for example, by
system, groups, time periods, theories or
methods. Whichever way, main themes are
often divided into smaller topics, followed by
details and examples. The grouping of
content usually follows rules or principles
specific to the discipline.
Knowing how your discipline groups its
content helps you to locate technical terms in
a meaningful context, making it easier to
understand and recall them.

For example, biology uses the following

groupings for describing organism. Please
read.

1. System: Kingdom
Example: Animalia
2. System: Species
Example: Sapiens
3. System: Class
Now class, can you give another example Example: Vertebrata
of group, system or periods?
 Sir, theory and the example is big bang
Correct! So, did you understand the theory.
lesson, class?

Yes, sir!
Again, what are the 3 technical terms?

1. common components of technical

terms
2. common word structures
Okay very good! I have a question, what are 3. how technical terms are classified.
the difference between prefix and suffix?

Sir, the difference between prefix and suffix

is that, prefix can be found at the beginning
of a word, while suffix can be found at the
end of a word.
Excellent! Now, why is it necessary to study
this lesson?

Sir, in order for us to be aware of technical

terms and we can use it in making research.
Very well said. I hope you are all aware of
that.
Do you have any questions or clarifications?
None, sir.
d. Application

Let us have again an activity. With

the same group, provide word that
has prefix and suffix and use it in a
sentence.

Each group should provide 6

words. 3 words for prefix and also
3 words for suffix. I will give you
only 5 minutes to finish your
activity.
(students do their activity)
Okay, time is up! Now, present your
activity. Let us start with the group 1.

Group 1:
 1. George noticed the unpleasant smell
in the classroom.
2. Anna was impolite while she’s on a
trip.
3. Our science teacher discussed about
the hemisphere of the Galaxy.
4. Biology is one of my favorite
