What have you recalled regarding phrases
and sentences?
“There is more happiness in giving than there is in receiving”.
Acts 20:35

 In the time of pandemic, we helped each other, especially the

needy people.
 The statement or verse above is a sentence. Today, let us learn
more about sentences and non- sentences.
Remember that a sentence is a group of
words that expresses a complete thought. It
begins with a capital letter and ends with a
period, question mark or an exclamation
point.
This group of words is a sentence because it
expresses a complete thought. It begins with
the capital letter T and ends with a period.
 If you noticed the statement became shorter. It
begins with a small letter t and has no
punctuation mark at the end. Therefore, the group
of words is not a sentence. It is called a non-
sentence.
A non-sentence does not express a
complete thought. It begins with a small
letter, and it has no punctuation mark at
the end.
Here is a diagram showing the comparison between sentences and non-
sentences.
Now let’s read the following examples of sentences and non-sentences.
 Do the thumbs up if the following groups of words are
sentences and do the thumbs down if the groups of
words are non-sentences

The answer is a thumbs up.

This is a sentence. The statement expresses a complete
thought. It begins with a capital letter H and ends with a
period.
The answer is thumbs down.
This is a non-sentence. The group of words does not express a
complete thought. It begins with a small letter and there is no
punctuation mark at the end.
The answer is a thumbs up.
This is a sentence. The group of words expresses a complete
thought. It begins with a capital letter W and ends with a
period.
Put a (/) on the blank if the following group of words is a
sentence and put an (X) if it is a non-sentence.

____ 1. The rose is red.

____ 2. Ana is studying.
____ 3. a red pen

____1. The girl is reading her favorite book.

____3. beautiful flower.
____4. Baguio City is a clean city.
____5. a fast walk
In our last lesson, we learned that a non-
sentence is a word or a phrase that does not
have a complete thought. We also learned
that a non-sentence may not start with a
word that uses a capital letter and it does not
end with a punctuation mark.
 How do we know which are simple sentences?

A simple sentence is a group of words that expresses a

complete thought. It has a subject and predicate. While
a non-sentence is a word, a clause or a phrase and
does not have a complete sentence.
Put a check (/) in the box if it is a sentence and cross
mark (X) if non-sentence.
 Let’s do a self-introduction using simple
sentences. Write your information on the blank

sentence and NS if it is a non-sentence.

Again, remember sentence is a group of
words which expresses a complete

 Have you visited Boracay before?

Sentences A
QUARTER 3 WEEK 3 Y
Draw a happy face in the box if you think the sentence matches
or talks about the picture correctly. Draw a sad face if the
sentence does not talk about the picture.
We have learned that a sentence is a group of
words which makes complete sense. When we
speak, we use sentences. A sentence that tells
something is a telling sentence. It is also called a
declarative sentence. It begins with a capital letter
and ends with a period.
 The children are going to school.
 They are wearing school uniforms.
 They have their bags with them.
• Why is school important?
• Is the first letter of the first word in each sentence
capitalized?
Yes, the first letter of the first word in each sentence is
capitalized.

• What is found at the end of each group of words?

You are correct! A question mark (?) is found at the end
of each group of words.
• Do you understand what the words who, where, when, why,
what and how mean?
Yes, they all ask for something.

The group of words we have read are also sentences. They are
called asking sentences. An asking sentence starts with a
question word to get information. It starts with a capital letter
and ends with a question mark.
Raise your two hands if the sentence is an asking sentence,
and raise your right hand if it is not.

1. Who has a dog?

If you raised your two hands, you’re correct! It is an asking sentence, starts with
question word and ends with a question mark.

2. I have a red hat.

If you raised your right hand, you’re correct! It is not an asking sentence, it does
not start with a question word. The sentence does not ask anything.
 3. Where is your mother?

If you raised your two hands, you’re right! It is an asking sentence.

4. I like to play at the park.

If you raised your right hand, you’re correct! It is not an asking sentence, it does
not start with question word, and it does not end in a question mark.
The given sentences are not correctly written. Rewrite
each to form asking sentences. Do not forget to put a
question mark (?) at the end of each asking sentence.

1. who is your seatmate

2. why are you crying
Always remember that an asking sentence
begins with a question word and asks for
something. It starts with a capital letter and
ends with a question mark.
Read each sentence. Put (/) if the sentence is an
asking sentence, and (X) if not.

1. I saw a superhero.
2. Where is my pencil?
3. How do you feel?
4. Let’s go to my room.
5. What is your name?
Practice writing asking
sentences.
