1. Introduction

Before we start our discussion today, let

us have a simple recall of what you
have learned from your previous
discussions.

Review
Let us go over what you learned about
sentences.

What is a Sentence? Anybody? A sentence is a group of

words, teacher.
Very good! What else, class? A sentence starts with a
capital letter.
Excellent! Your answers are correct!
When we say, Sentence, it is a group of
words that expresses a complete thought
or idea.

I am so glad that you have learned from

your previous discussions. Give
everybody 5 big claps, begin!

Motivation
Are you now ready with our discussion,
class? Yes, teacher.

As an introduction to our topic, I have

prepared here pictures. I want you to
observe it properly and describe what is
it all about.

(The teacher shares pictures.)

The girl is helping her

mother and daughter
mother in washing
their clothes.

What can you describe about the

picture? The mother and the girl is
washing the clothes,
That is correct! The girl is helping her teacher.
mother.

What is the girl doing in the picture? She is washing the

clothes, teacher.

Very good! Who is helping her mother

in washing the clothes? The girl is helping her
mother, teacher.

Fantastic! Now, take a look with the

two descriptions under each pictures.
What do you think is the difference
between the two? In the first picture, the
sentence is long while in
the second picture, it is
shorter than the other,
teacher.
You’ve got it right! The description in
the first picture describes a sentence and
the second picture is just a phrase.

With that, we will be learning today a

new lesson that talks about a sentence
and a phrase.

Thank you so much for all your active

participation. Alright, fasten your
seatbelts as we go deeper our
understanding about our topic for today.
Statement of the Subject Today, we will learn more about the
Matter and Aim sentences and non-sentences. Read our
topic, begin!
(The teacher calls a student.) Distinguishing Sentences
from Non-Sentences

Listen attentively and participate well so

we can have an interactive discussion
and for us to achieve the following
objectives. Kindly read the objectives,
begin!
(The teacher calls a student.) a. Identify what is a
sentence and a non-
sentence.
b. Distinguish sentences
from non-sentences
(EN3G-Ia-1.1) and;
c. Explain the importance
of being helpful.
2. Interaction

Distinguishing Sentences from

Non-Sentences

Let us read the following group of

words.

(Teacher calls a student to read.) Joy is eating an ice

cream.

eating happily

Which of the following expresses a

complete thought or idea? Is it the first
one or the second one? The first one expresses a
complete thought, teacher.
That is correct! It is the first one. It tells
us who is eating an ice cream. It also
tells us what Joy is doing and what is
she eating.

It can be understood easily because it is

clear and the idea is complete. This is
what we call, Sentence.

Sentence – is a group of words that

expresses a complete thought or idea.

How about the second group of words?

eating happily

It seems like there’s something missing,

right? Yes, teacher.

What have you noticed, class? It is short and just two

words, teacher.

That’s true! It does not express a

complete idea.

Who is eating happily?

What are they eating?

We will not be able to answer questions

like that because it is incomplete. This
is what we call, Non-sentence. Is that
clear? Yes, teacher.

Now let us try another example. Kindly

read, begin!
(Teacher calls a student to read.) Ex. Elsa goes to school.
pen and paper

Which do you think is a sentence? Elsa goes to school is a

sentence, teacher.

Marvelous! Which do you think is not a

sentence? Pen and paper is not a
sentence, teacher.

Fantastic! There is another way to

determine a sentence from a non-
sentence, class.
A sentence starts with a capital letter
and ends with a punctuation mark. It
can be a period, a question mark, or an
exclamation point.

Ex. Elsa goes to school.

While a non-sentence does not begin

with a capital letter and has no
punctuation mark.

Ex. pen and paper

Is everything clear, class? Yes, teacher.

Well, to understand better the difference

between the two, let us try another
example.

Kindly read, begin!

(Teacher calls a student to read.) Ex. Colet dances well.

Is it a sentence or a non-sentence? It is a sentence, teacher.

Why is it a sentence? It is a sentence because it

expresses a complete
thought, teacher.

Amazing! Who dances well? Colet dances well.

How did Colet dance? She dances well.

Very good! Aside from it shows a

complete thought, what else? It starts with a capital
letter, teacher.

Target! Another? It ends with a punctuation

mark, teacher.

That’s right! You’re all learning fast.

Another example, kindly read!

(Teacher calls a student to read.) Ex. a cup cake

Is it a sentence or a non-sentence? A non-sentence, teacher.

Very good! What makes it a non-

sentence? It is not a complete idea
and has no punctuation
mark, teacher.
That is correct! The example does not
tell us who ate the cupcake or who
made cupcake. Am I right? Yes, teacher.

Do you now understand the difference

between a sentence from a non-
sentence? Yes, teacher.

Amazing! I am impressed that all of you

are learning that fast. Good job,
everyone!

3. Integration

thought or idea, teacher.

Impressive! What else? It starts with a capital

letter, teacher.

Correct! Another? It ends with a punctuation

mark, teacher.

Marvelous! Can you give me an

example? (The pupil does as told.)

How about a non-sentence? A non-sentence has no

complete idea and does
not starts with a capital
letter, teacher.
Very good! If a sentence has a
punctuation mark, how about a non-
sentence? A non-sentence has no
punctuation mark, teacher.

Can you give me an example? (The pupil does as told.)

Wow! Everybody is really learning

today! Thank you so much for your
active participation. I hope today’s
learning helped you especially in
making poems, or any written texts.

class? Do you go on vacation? Yes, teacher.
No, teacher.
Alright, some of you went on vacation,
and some stayed at home. Now, what
did you do with your free time at home?

chores at home is one way of maintaining
and strengthening our relationship with
our family members. It makes them
happy to see you helping them, even in
simple ways. And of course, if our
parents are happy, Jesus will also be
happy because you are all excellent and
helpful children.

Are there any questions? None, teacher.
