● Opening Prayer.
Have a short discussion as motivation on what the pupils will reflect after answering the
above questions orally.
Allow the pupils reflect on the value of constant and open communication in the family.
In the family, being the basic unit of the society, communication is very essential. In
today’s digital era where children including parents get hooked to gadgets have
somehow limited or deprived the family from talking and spending some quality time.
Constant and open communication helps the family sustain its healthy relationship.
Thus, we really need to connect with our parents, children and siblings.

Motive Question:

2. How are they used in the sentences?
Conjunction is a word that connects or joins words, phrases and clauses together in
a sentence. Conjunctions are used to coordinate words in a sentence.
Three types of conjunction are:
1. Coordinating
2. Subordinating
3. Correlative
C. Lesson Proper
Coordinate conjunctions connect words, phrases, and independent clauses.
Remember the acronym FANBOYS,
F– for,
A– and,
N– nor,
B– but,
O– or,
Y– yet,
S -- so.
Subordinate conjunctions are words or phrases that are used to connect dependent clause
to the main clause or independent clause. It provide necessary transition between two ideas in
a sentence. This transition signals time, place, condition, reason, comparison, or cause-effect
relationship.
Correlative conjunction these conjunction work in pair to join words or phrases that carry
equal importance in a sentence. When writing sentences with correlative conjunctions, make
sure the two elements being joined are balanced. For example, if a noun follows the first
conjunction, then a noun needs to follow the second conjunction as well. Watch for subject-
verb agreement, when connecting two subjects, the second subject must agree with the verb.
Below are the list of correlative conjunctions and its use:
1. both…and ------ two options are possible
Both the office and the library are open.
2. not only… but…also ----- creates emphasis
Filipinos are not only courteous, but they are also religious.
3. either…or ------ choice between two alternatives
I can either bake cookies or buy a cake.
4. neither… nor ------ makes two negative statements
Mark is neither a singer nor an actor.
5. whether… or ------ presents two possibilities
