A. Review

In our previous lesson, we talked about

sentences. We learned to recognized which is a
sentence and not.

Now, what makes a sentence? -It starts with a big or

capital letter.
-It expresses a complete
thought or idea.
-It ends with a punctuation
mark such as period (.),
question mark (?) or an
exclamation mark (!).
 B. Motivation
Let’s start our today’s lesson by reading a story.
Who’s Who?
One Saturday morning, Father and John went to the river to
fish. It was already 5:00 in the afternoon when they got home.
However, they did not catch any fish. Mother asked, “Why?
What happened?”
John answered, “A fish caught Father, but Father was able
to get away.”

II. Developmental Activities
A. Presentation
 What can be done to make the sentence -Father caught a fish.
correct?
Father caught a fish.; this sentence is a complete sentence
because it has the two parts.
Subject and Predicate
Please say it louder? -Subject and Predicate!
Let’s find out which is the subject and the predicate of the
sentence after we will know what is subject and predicate.

 What are the two parts of a sentence? -Subject and Predicate

SUBJECT tells us who or what the sentence is all about. It

answers the question who or what.

 sentence?

B. Discussion

subject in a sentence?
-caught a fish

 What is the predicate in the sentence?
 Observed the sentences, what comes first
of the predicate?
Yes, a verb. It can also be a helping verb (is, are, was, were)

Reminder:
To make a good sentence, the subject and the predicate
must be related. When the subject and predicate do not match,
they make a funny sentence. -No
  A fish caught Father, makes a good
sentence?

Now, I have here some sentences. On the board, I want you

to rewrite the sentences. Be sure to match the right subject
with right predicate. -The boy is flying a kite.
-The bee is collecting honey.
Subject Predicate -The mouse is inside the
The Boy * is collecting honey. tiny hole.
The bee * is inside the tiny hole.
The mouse * is flying a kite.
