Base on the story that we read earlier what did you think
our Lesson for today?
- Using Compound
Sentences to Show a
Problem- Solution
Relationship
Very good!

Our topic for today is all about Using Compound

Sentences to Show a Problem- Solution Relationship.

In the previous module, you learned that a compound

sentence is a sentence having two independent clauses or
parts that were combined to form a single sentence. If these
parts are separated they can stand on their own since they
have a complete meaning.

(compound sentence) Nobody wanted to live with the

bat, so the bat decided to live alone

(independent clause) Nobody wanted to live with the

bat –

(independent clause) The bat decided to leave alone

In the example above 3 the compound sentence also

expresses a cause and effect relationship. A cause is
something that allows another thing to happen while an (the pupils will listen
effect is the event that happens because of the cause. attentively)
Going back to the first sentence above, we can identify the
following parts:

Cause (First Event): Nobody wanted to live with the bat.

Effect (Next Event): “the bat decided to live alone

Let’s take a look at more compound sentences using the

sentences you encountered earlier. Note that in each
sentence, there is a cause and an effect.
The sky became dark and it started to rain.

Cause Effect
It is dangerous to go out during a typhoon for you can be
hit by falling trees.
 Cause Effect

Now let’s also consider these sentences:

Children suffer skin rashes during summer, so they need to

avoid the sun.

Cause (Problem; Effect

(Solution)

We bought halo -halo, for it was hot during the day.

Effect (Solution) Cause (Problem)

You will notice that the two sentences above are originally
examples of compound sentences showing cause and
effect relationship. However they are a special type of a
cause and effect relationship because the cause happens
to be a problem and the effect also happens to be the
solution.

In other words the compound sentences above are

examples of a problem -solution relationship. In order to
avoid skin rashes during summer
(cause), children need to avoid the sun (solution). Likewise
the problem about having a hot day was solved by having
a halo-halo.

A problem and solution sentence is a sentence pattern

where there is a concerning issue and a remedy to the said
issue. Most often the word used to form the compound
sentence that shows a problem -solution relationship is the
conjunction so.

Examples of Compound Sentences that Show

Problem and Solution Relationships
Occasionally, however the coordinating conjunctions for,
and or may also be used.

We left the party, for it was already getting late

Solution Problem
You need to drink enough water, or you will end up
dehydrated
Solution Possible Problem
 3. Abstraction

What is the importance of using compound sentences in

showing a problem solution relationship?
- It combines the
two independent clauses
which are the problem
and solution to create
makes it a one
What is a compound sentence? sentence.

- A compound
sentence is a sentence
made of two or more
independent clauses,
usually joined by a
conjunction.
How can you determine if a sentence is a compound
sentence that shows a problem solution relationship?
- If a sentence has
a sentence pattern
where there is a
concerning issue and a
remedy to the said
issue.
Do you understand our lesson class?
Do you any questions or clarifications?
- Yes Teacher.

- None Teacher

3. Application

“Now class, we’re going to have a group activity. I will group

you into two groups. Choose a leader and a secretary in

IV. Evaluation
Directions: Complete the compound sentence by adding a solution that
answers the problem. Write your answers in a 1/2 sheet of paper.

I will stay at my friend’s house tonight, so ___________________

Problem Solution

will stay at my friend’s house tonight, so I will bring my clothes.
