III. Procedure
A. Motivation
Finding Verbs! (group activity)
*The teacher will distribute a short story each group and students have to identify all the verbs found in it. Students
have to write their answers in the manila paper (provided).
His heart beating, Miles walked through the undergrowth till he could see the deserted
old mansion in front of home. He jump onto the porch and pushed the heavy oak door, hearing
the hinges groan as it slowly opened.
He went into the dark hallway, and gazed around at the portraits of long dead people
looking at him from the walls. He made his way to the foot of a staircase and began to climb the
creaking stairs. His hands were sweating as he held the dusty banister to steady his faltering
steps.
Suddenly Miles felt a draft and there, standing before him, was a monster unlike anything
he had ever seen before. Its deathly white face was surrounded by a mane of matted hair, its
eyes had a ghastly red glare, and from its face came an expression of pure evil.
For a brief moment Miles was completely transfixed. Then, as he tried to run, the hideous
creature flung itself at him and got around the throat. As Miles tried to escape its clutching
talons, he heard the creature give a gruesome laugh. With all his strength, Miles got his body face
free and ran from the horrifying fiend.
Through the door and across the porch Miles ran, his breath catching in his dry throat. Back
through the bushes and out onto the road until he saw the welcoming lights of his own home
gleaming in the cold night air. Then, he stopped and looked back through the gloom. What was
that? What exactly had he seen? Would he ever know for sure?
B. Discussion
What is a verb?
Verbs are the action words in a sentence that describe what the subject is doing. Along with nouns, verbs
are the main part of a sentence or phrase, telling a story about what is taking place. In fact, without a verb, full
thoughts can’t be properly conveyed, and even the simplest sentences, such as Maria sings, have one. Actually, a
verb can be a sentence by itself, with the subject, in most case you, implied, such as, Sing! and Drive!
A verb is a word that indicates a physical action (e.g., “drive”), a mental action (e.g., “think”), or a state of
being (e.g., “exist”). Every sentence contains a verb. Verbs are almost always used along with a noun or pronoun to
describe what the noun or pronoun is doing.
A verb has four principal parts: the present, the present participle, the past, and the past participle. The
chart shows the principal parts of two verbs.
Irregular Verbs. Although most verbs are regular, many of the most common verbs are irregular. An irregular
verb is one whose past and past participle are not formed by adding –ed or –d to the present form.
IRREGULAR VERBS WITH THE SAME PRESENT, PAST, AND PAST PARTICIPLE
Present Present Participle Past Past Participle
bid bidding bid (have) bid
burst bursting burst (have) burst
The first principal part is used for the basic forms of the present tense. The present tense is formed by
adding an -s or –es when the subject is he, she, it, or a singular noun (I talk, Mary draws).
The second principal part is used with various helping verbs for all six of the progressive forms (I am talking,
Mary was drawing, and so on). To form a present participle, take the base form of the verb and add -ing. If the verb
ends in a silent -e, drop the -e and add -ing. Present participles are used in the progressive tenses, which combine a
form of to be (am, is, was, etc.) with a present participle.
The third principal part is used to form the past tense (I talked, Mary drew). To form the past tense, take the
base form and add -ed. If the base ends in a silent e, just add -d, not -ed. Unlike the present tense, the past tense
always uses the same form regardless of person or number.
The fourth principal part is used with helping verbs for the basic forms of the three perfect tenses (I have
talked, Mary had drawn, and so on). Past participles are formed the same way as the past tense—by adding -ed to
the base (or just -d if the base ends in a silent -e). Past participles are used in the perfect tenses, which combine a
form of to have (have, has, had) with a past participle.

B. Discussion
What is a verb tense?
Verb tenses show when an action took place, as well as how long it occurred. The main verb tenses are the
past, present, and future.
There are additional aspects that give extra details, such as the length of time the action occurred, which
actions happened first, or whether a past action has an impact on the present. These grammatical aspects are the
simple tense, perfect tense, progressive tense, and perfect progressive tense.
Simple tense
The simple tense is a grammatical aspect that refers to the normal forms of the past, present, and future
tenses. Unlike the other aspects, it doesn’t add any new information. True to its name, simple tenses are the easiest
to form and have the fewest rules.

The teacher will group the students into two. Each group will choose two representatives to perform or act

B. Discussion
Perfect tense
The definition of the perfect tense is a little more complicated. It’s used for actions that relate to other points
in time, either completed or ongoing.
For example, in the sentence “I have played soccer since I was a child”, the perfect tense indicates that the
action occurred continuously in the past and still happens in the present. By contrast, in the sentence “ I played
soccer when I was a child”, the simple past tense indicates that the action occurred only in the past, and has no
relation to the present.
The perfect tenses use a conjugation of the auxiliary verb have with the past participle of the main verb.

B. Discussion
Progressive Tense
We use the progressive tense for ongoing actions or actions that happen a while before completion. For
example, “They are studying all night means the studying lasts many hours before it’s finished.”
Please note that you usually do not use the progressive tense with stative verbs like want, love, have, and
need. The progressive tenses use a conjugation of the auxiliary verb be along with the main verb’s present participle,
or –ing form.

Perfect Progressive Tense
When you combine the perfect and progressive tenses, you get the perfect progressive tense. It’s typically
used just like the perfect tense, except it describes ongoing actions that happen over a period of time.
The construction of the perfect progressive tense uses a conjugation of the auxiliary verb have, the auxiliary
verb been (the past participle of be), and the present participle of the main verb.

B. Discussion
A short introduction (definition)
Subject - is the person, place, or thing that is performing the action of the sentence. The subject represents what or
whom the sentence is about.
Verb - is the action or state of being in a sentence. Verbs can be expressed in different tenses, depending on when
the action is being performed.
Linking Verb - connects the subject of a sentence to an adjective, noun, or pronoun that completes the meaning of
the verb (is, are, am).
Complement - a word or group of words that completes a grammatical construction.
Transitive Verb - a verb that requires an object to receive the action.
Indirect Object - is an optional part of a sentence; it's the recipient of an action. In the sentence “Jake gave me some
cereal,” the word “me” is the indirect object; I'm the person who got cereal from Jake.
Direct Object - is the noun phrase that drives the action of a sentence; in the sentence “Jake ate cereal,” Jake is the
subject. The direct object is the thing that the subject acts upon, so in that last sentence, “cereal” is the direct object;
it's the thing Jake ate.
Object Complement - are constituents of the predicate.

B. Discussion
A. PRESENT TENSE VERB FORMS
RULE 1. A present tense verb form always agrees in number with the subject noun or pronoun of the sentence. A
singular subject requires a singular verb. A plural subject requires a plural verb.

Rule 4. Use a singular verb with a compound subject that refers to one person.
My secretary and treasurer is very efficient.
The president and chairman is the same man who found this company.

Red beans and rice is my mom’s favorite dish.
Peace and order in our country is not stable.
At one time, bread and water was a common menu for any prisoner of war.
Rule 6. When a compound subject is connected by either… or or neither… nor. Use a verb that agrees in number

C. INTERVENING WORDS AND PHRASES
Rule 7. A verb form agrees with the subject whether the verb comes next to the subject or is separated from it by
intervening and parenthetical expressions. Such words and phrases do not change the number of the subject.
The navy captain, together with 250 marines, chaperons the president.
The light form the new mercury lamps brightens the sidewalk.
All stars, just like our sun, possess a system of planets.
Rule 8. If one subject is used affirmatively and the other is used negatively, the verb agrees with the subject that is
used affirmatively.

The waiters, not the chef, are entertaining the customers.
Cardo, not Joaquin and they, is active in class.
D. INDEFINITE PRONOUN SUBJECTS

How do you write an argumentative essay?
The writer of an argumentative essay aims to convey and defend an opinion or stand by supporting it with
truthful, factual, and relevant evidence in order to convince others to accept or agree with his or her ideas.
A good argumentative essay has the following elements: claim, evidence, counterclaim, and rebuttal.
Following the basic structure of an essay, the introduction of an argumentative essay, aside from containing
the hook and the context, states the claim or the main thesis or position of the essay.

B. Discussion
What are some writing techniques you can use in essays?
In your academic life, you will be writing four kinds of essays: an informative essay, an analytical essay, a
persuasive essay, and an argumentative essay. Each of these has its own characteristics or qualities. Thus, you
have to keep in mind specific techniques to follow when writing one.
Informative Essay
This type of essay explains a short theme, idea, or an issue. It is a personal response to anything and is
usually three paragraphs long.
Example:
Memory: Why Cramming for Tests Often Fails (by Tom Stafford)
Analytical Essay
This type of essay analyzes, interprets, or examines an art work, a film, a literary work, a song, a
composition, or a media text. It is usually written in four parts:
a. the introduction that tells you the what text you will be discussing and why
b. the textual analysis which is closely related to your main argument or idea in the introduction
c. your personal reading of the text that must show criticality
d. the conclusion which shows the connection between your argument and the text
Example:
Frustrated Communication in Ex Machina’s Opening Sequence
Persuasive Essay
This type of essay convinces a reader to believe or adopt a viewpoint on a certain issue. It is sometimes
written in three to five paragraphs.
Argumentative Essay
This type of essay argues in a sense that it proves a hypothesis, preposition, theory, idea, or opinion. It is
usually written in five paragraphs to show the pros and cons, with claims, and subpoints for each.
Example:
Love Begins When the Feelings Are Gone

LESSON PLAN – GRADE 10
I. Objectives
At the end of the lesson, the learners are expected to:
compose an independent critique of a chosen selection (EN10WC-lllg-14)
III. Procedure
A. Motivation
Let’s Read!
Read the excerpt below taken from an argumentative essay. Then, answer the questions that follow in a ½
crosswise paper.
High school students like us, who are mostly teenagers, find many ways to express ourselves. Sometimes,
we like to express ourselves through art like those cool drawings and paintings we find in our Visual Arts
classroom or the small doodles we draw in our notebooks. However, one of the simplest ways we express
ourselves is through the clothes that we wear. Hence, I believe that we should have a day for civilian attire.
Questions:
1. Based on the text, what are some ways people express themselves?
2. Are these ways similar to or different from the way you express yourself? If so, in what ways are they the same or
different?
3. What is the purpose of the author in writing the essay?
4. Do you agree or disagree with the author’s stance? Explain.
Possible Answers
1. cool drawings and paintings, visual arts, small doodles, and clothes
2. Answer may vary depending on the ways learner expresses himself/herself.
3. to persuade that there should be a day for civilian attire
4. Answer may vary depending on learner’s choice.
B. Discussion
How do you compose a critique of a selection?
One way to respond to a selection read is by writing a critique. This demonstrates a thorough understanding
of the material as well as critical thinking that allows you to weigh the substance and quality of the text.
An important thing to remember is that a critique is not an exercise in finding fault with the text, or simply
reviewing it according to preference or taste. A critique is more in line with an evaluative analysis, where the text is
examined closely and its strengths and weaknesses are appraised.
In writing a critique, follow these steps:
1. Read and understand the text thoroughly.
Choose a particular point of view for reading the text and use that lens’ focal points and questions to make
sense of the text. Make notes and explain the text as you go along so that you have plenty of materials for the next
step.
Take a look at the table below.
In the table above, the reader jots down a comment and a question as he or she reads the selection. Doing
this is an example of a close reading technique. This will further deepen your recalling abilities and further
understanding of the text.
Structure your critique.
The framework for writing a critique is as follows:
a. Introduction
This is a short section where you must identify the title and author of the work, briefly describe the
context that informs the creation of the work, and state your thesis, or the overall evaluation of the work –
what you feel its goal is and whether or not it succeeded at that. The evaluation may be positive, negative,
or mixed, but there must be an evaluative stand. A neutral or opinionless evaluation is not much of a
critique.
Take a look at the samples below. Can you identify which of them is the background or the thesis?
(1) The nature of a human being is considered to be an abstract concept. Humans behave in a
complex way that is always viewed to be ambiguous, unpredictable, and enigmatic. Part of human nature
is the hunger for knowledge…
(2) … Victor, the protagonist in Shelley’s Frankenstein portrays the three Jungian archetypes
namely shadow, anima and persona.
Source: Porras, Anthony. “Frankenstein’s Shadow, Anima, and Persona.” Essay, University of
Southeastern Philippines, 2015. Accessed March 3, 2021.
The first sample above is background statement related to the selection’s theme. It provides the
readers with a general overview of the topic. On the other hand, the second sample is a thesis statement.
The author establishes the phases of Victor’s journey reflected from Carl Jung’s archetypal approach. Take
note of the three main points highlighted which are (a) shadow; (b) anima; and persona. These archetypes
will be elaborated in the succeeding paragraphs with excerpts from the selection accompanied by a critical
evaluation.
In a series of letters, Robert Walton, the ship captain bound for the North Pole, recounted to his
sister back in England the progress of his dangerous mission. Walton then encountered Victor
Frankenstein, who travelled by dog-drawn sled across the ice.
Source: Porras, Anthony. “Frankenstein’s Shadow, Anima, and Persona.” Essay, University of
Southeastern Philippines, 2015. Accessed March 3, 2021.
Critical Evaluation
This section should include an organized, detailed analysis of the work using your chosen lens,
expressing your thesis statement and providing supporting information for why you feel the work succeeded
at its goal or not. You must identify the strengths and weaknesses of the work, using specific examples and
evidence from the text. You may organize this section by starting with the broader, larger scale impressions,
and then moving on to the more specific, technical points. You may take a look at the sample below.
Victor’s shadow devoured the other archetypes. The writer effectively gave justice to the name
Victor who has hailed as a “victor.” His aim for scientific glory had prevailed. This resulted in a rejection to
both of his anima (Elizabeth) and persona (Henry) who were both killed by the monster he created. In
other words, Victor was not able to integrate his shadow into other archetypes. He failed to assimilate
those to produce the concept of self from Jungian Psychology which later caused his tragic death.
Source: Porras, Anthony. “Frankenstein’s Shadow, Anima, and Persona.” Essay, University of
Southeastern Philippines, 2015. Accessed March 3, 2021.
Conclusion
This is where you briefly summarize the points you have just made, leading to restatement of your
verdict about the text. Observe the sample below.
In sum, human nature can never be considered flat and stereotypical. Jung’s view of human nature
is indeed relevant and universal. Employing his work to Shelley’s Frankenstein further extended its
applicability to literature. The archetypes from his work are present and depicted through the character of
Victor’s ambition (shadow), Elizabeth (anima), and Henry (persona)…

Can you pinpoint the arguments presented? Take time to revisit the introduction and observe how
the author connected the central theme of human nature from introduction to its conclusion.

LESSON PLAN – GRADE 10
I. Objectives
At the end of the lesson, the learners are expected to:
distinguish the technical terms used in research. (EN10-Iva-30)
III. Procedure
A. Motivation
Arrange the following scrambled letters.
B. Discussion
Background Information for Learner
Technical terms are essential part of all technical and scientific writing. Each field and specialty typically
uses a vocabulary that relays a variety of specialized concepts by means of technical language. These special terms
convey concentrated meanings that have been built up over significant periods of study of a field. The value of a
specialized set of terms lies in the way each term condenses a mass of information into a single word; a way of
gaining great depth and accuracy of meaning with economy of words. Technical terms often blend readily into
formulae and mathematical manipulation that quantifies and allows the concept to be manipulated.
Here are some of the Basic Research Terminologies
RESEARCH
Is defined as a systematic and scientific process to answer questions about facts and relationship between
facts. It is an activity involved in seeking answer to unanswered questions.
A scientific, systematic, controlled, orderly and objective investigation to develop, refine and expand body of
knowledge.
Seeks to generate an answer to the problems as well as suggesting additional questions in need of further
inquiry.

DEMOGRAPHIC VARIABLES
The characteristics and attributes of study subjects such as age, gender, place of living, educational status,
religion, social class, marital status, occupation, income are considered as demographic variables.
OPERATIONAL DEFINITION
Refers to the way in which the researcher defines the variables under investigation. Operational definition
stated in such way by the investigator specifying how the study variables will be measured in the actual
research situation.
CONCEPT
Refers to mental idea of phenomenon. Concepts are words or terms that symbolize some aspects of reality,
e.g., love, pain.
CONSTRUCT
Is a highly abstract and complex phenomenon (concept) which is denoted by a made up or constructed
term.
PROPOSITION
A proposition is a statement or assertion of the relationship between concepts (e.g. relationship between
anxiety and performance).
CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK
Interrelated concepts or abstractions that are assembled together in some rational scheme by virtue of their
relevance to a common theme. It is also referred to as theoretical framework.
ASSUMPTION
Basic principle that is being true on the basis of logic or reason, without proof or verification.
HYPOTHESIS
A statement of the predicted relationship between two or more variables in a research study; an educated or
calculated guess by the researcher.
LITERATURE REVIEW
A critical summary or research on a topic of interest, generally prepared to put a research problem in
context or to identify gaps and weaknesses in prior studies so as to justify a new investigation.
LIMITATIONS
Restrictions in a study that may decrease the credibility and generalizability of the research findings.
ANALYSIS
Method of organizing, sorting, and scrutinizing data in such a way that research questions can be answered
or meaningful inferences can be drawn.
MANIPULATION

A. Motivation
Vocabulary
Direction: The class will be divided into five groups. Then, there will be one representative in each group
(who will act as a guesser), other members will be the supporters. Each group is given ten words and they
are only given 1 min & 30 secs to guess those words. If they can’t able to guess the word, they can say
“pass” and proceed to the next word. One correct answer is equivalent to two points.
B. Discussion
When to use Technical and Operational Definitions?
A technical definition is a definition in technical communication describing or explaining technical
terminology. Technical definitions are used to introduce the vocabulary which makes communication in a
particular field succinct and unambiguous. For example, the iliac crest from medical terminology is the top
ridge of the hip bone (see ilium).
An operational definition is the articulation of operationalization used in defining the terms of a
process needed to determine the nature of an item or phenomenon and its properties such as duration,
quantity, extension in space, chemical composition, etc.
A technical definition is a definition in the technical sense, while an operational definition includes
information from the real world. So a technical definition might be an automobile is a machine with four
wheels and includes details of the automobile that make it function. While an operational definition would be
an automobile is a car or truck that gets you around from place to place and caries cargo or passengers,
and makes it easier to live in the city or countryside.

Plastic Wastes into Bricks
(Abstract)
This study was conducted at Brgy. Poblacion, Banate, Iloilo to produce bricks out of plastic wastes
that help reduce the wastes in the society.
The purpose of this study is to produce a brick out of plastic wastes, which is what the people need
to help recycle plastic wastes. The researchers underwent several procedures such as gathering materials,
shredding, mixing and molding. The researchers decided to pursue this study because recycling is duly
practiced in the Philippines. Another major reason why the researchers focused on this is to reuse plastic
wastes. The researchers melted the plastics and transformed into a brick so it can be used again. The
materials used were the following: cement, strainer, plastics, and water. The researchers gathered the
plastics, cut them into small pieces and strained them to make them finer. Cement and water were added
and these were mixed together. After mixing thoroughly, the mixture was put into a molder and allowed it to
dry.

Background Information for Learner
The ability to expand ideas is an intrinsic skill in research. It is a requisite tool so you can break
down an abstract term into an understandable concept that everyone can relate to. Doing so means being
able to merge the meanings from several sources and unify them into a simplified whole, thus, you are
leveling with your intended readers. More importantly, you’re able to infuse your ideas into it and make the
definition your own. It’s not enough that you collate information from various sources, you have to inject your
own knowledge and contribute to the over-all development and enhancement of the topic you’re presenting.

B. Discussion
HOW DO YOU WRITE YOUR RESEARCH REPORT
Writing the Introduction. Let us start with the first goal by reviewing the essential parts of the
introduction:
A. Brief Background: Provides an overview of the scope of the research.
B. Objectives of the Study: Articulate what you intend to find out or achieve in the study. Some researchers
use research questions that they intend to address in the report. Others articulate the objectives of the
study. Either way, research questions or objectives are tools to guide readers in knowing the direction of the
research.
C. Significance of the Study: Discusses the relevance of the study to your intended audience. Cite the
specific benefits that they can get from the findings of the research.
D. Literature Review: Discusses previous studies done on the chosen topic. Relate how your research
relates to theses previous researches.
In writing the introduction, you also have to think of catchy devices or hooks that would get the
interest of your readers. This can be done through the use of questions, a direct quotation, a startling fact, or
vivid description.
Writing the Body. The body of research reports contains the substantial amount of information that
needs to be clearly and accurately presented and analyzed. The data that will be presented in this section
are meant to address the research questions or objectives. In presenting the gathered information you can
use pie charts, graphs, or tables. Note that you must introduce each illustration appropriately followed by an
adequate discussion of the data presented.
Moreover, you need to use related studies to support or refute the findings. You can do this by
incorporating the notes (summary, quote, paraphrase) that you have gathered in the pre-writing phrase.
Remember to cite your sources using the recommended system of documentation. Also, introduce and
explain the direct quotation, paraphrase, or summary that you have incorporated in the discussions.
Writing the Conclusion. The conclusion is important in bringing home the highlights of the research
paper. A well-written conclusion allows readers to take on a new perspective about the thesis. Moreover, it
provides readers with recommendations that can be explored concerning the topic.
Here’s an example of a simplified research report using the background information on the need for
good nutrition especially with the rising problem on Obesity.
Body:
Consuming high amounts of fats and sugar and not burning these off through regular exercise
will lead to obesity. This medical problem is particularly caused by eating excessively and moving
minimally. It never sounds good telling someone that it is just fine to be overweight as long as you can
have all the delicacies and sodas that fast foods can offer. Research shows that people living with obesity
are at risk of developing a range of serious health problems such as heart diseases, diabetes, high blood
pressure and certain cancers. Being obese is really unhealthy as study has found that it cuts short life
expectancy an average of 6 and ½ years for those at the low end of “extremely obese” and almost 14
years for those at the high end. Obese individuals may also experience anxiety and mental disorder.
Conclusion:
So, next time your hangout buddies invite you for doses of bottomless milk teas and dips of
delectable food stuffs in an eat-all-you-can restaurant, remember this: “Smile back at them, but this time,
learn to say “No” nicely, that is, if you wish to live long and stay happy!
