GOOD MORNING

LEARNERS!
“Having then gifts differing according to the grace
that is given to us, let us use them: if prophecy,
let us prophesy in proportion to our faith; or
ministry, let us use it in our ministering; he who
teaches, in teaching; he who exhorts, in
exhortation; he who gives, with liberality; he
who leads, with diligence; he who shows mercy,
with cheerfulness.”
Romans 12:6-8
Processing Questions:
1. Did you wonder who you are? Why?
2. What is the meaning of diversities of gifts?
3. What are you going to do with your gifts?
4. How can you apply your gifts as a learner?
At the end of this lesson, you as a leaner should be
able to:

a. define what is a clause;


b. identify the kinds of clauses and
their functions;
c. write sentences using dependent
and independent clauses; and
d. relate your personal qualities in
discovering oneself through Venn
Diagram and clauses.
DIRECTIONS: Read the following sentences and they’re going to tell how
many clauses are there in each sentence.
1. Every person is a unique creation.
2. Discovering your uniqueness and making a full sense of it takes time.
3. Because you are still in the stage of self-discovery, you might experience
much confusion.
4. Your decision for today may be different from tomorrow’s.
5. If you experience this, you are going through a normal process in life.
6. You should identify where the uncertainty is coming from, so you can
have a better understanding of yourself.
7. When you do not know the root of your confusion, you are shutting the
door toward self-discovery.
INDEPENDENT
AND
DEPENDENT
CLAUSES
A clause is a group of words that has a subject and a
verb and may or may not have a complete thought.
It has a two kinds: independent and dependent.
 
Again, you must recall that a phrase does not have
both a subject and a verb, therefore, it is not a
complete sentence.
Now, unlike a phrase, a clause contains a subject and a
predicate that acts as a sentence or cannot make
sense standing on its own.
CLAUSE
A subject and predicate working together

I am.
Reading is fun.
I study hard so I get good grades.
Mike went to the park and Shelly cleaned.
PHRASE
A group of words related to the subject or
predicate.

Hiding under the table, the dog knew he was bad.

his companions and himself, he put the

 You connect two independent clauses by
using coordinating conjunctions.

2. Independent Marker Word
An independent marker word is a connecting
word used at the beginning of an independent
clause. These words can always begin a
sentence that can stand alone. When thesecond
independent clause in a sentencehas an
independent marker word, a semicolon is
needed before the independent marker word.
Some common independent markers are:

also, consequently, furthermore,


however, moreover, nevertheless, and
therefore.
Meanwhile, a dependent clause also contains
a subject and a verb but does not express a
complete thought. It cannot stand alone as a
sentence, which means it needs to be
connected to an independent clause a
complete thought. For example, sentences 3
and 5 contain dependent clauses.
dependent clause

Because you are still in the stage of self-


discovery, you might experience much
independent clause
confusion.
● A dependent clause is linked to an
independent or main clause through
subordinating conjunctions. In the example
above, the subordinating conjunctions used
are because and if. Other examples of
commonly used subordinating conjunctions
are as follows:
although even though
until as soon as
once when
before so that
whether even if
unless while

RECALL OF OBJECTIVES:
define what is a clause;
identify the kinds of clauses and
their functions;
write sentences using dependent
and independent clauses; and
relate your personal qualities in
discovering oneself through Venn
Diagram and clauses.
According to the Scriptures, these gifts include such ministries
as faith, healing, prophecy, proclamation, teaching,
administration, reconciliation, compassion, and self-sacrificing
service and charity for the help and encouragement of people.
Some members are called of God and endowed by the Spirit
for functions recognized by the church in pastoral,
evangelistic, apostolic, and teaching ministries particularly
needed to equip the members for service, to build up the
church to spiritual maturity, and to foster unity of the faith and
knowledge of God. When members employ these spiritual gifts
as faithful stewards of God's varied grace, the church is
protected from the destructive influence of false doctrine,
grows with a growth that is from God, and is built up in faith
and love.
“While making a sentence or a group of words that
contain two clauses, you have to take care of the placement of
commas. But when it’s used incorrectly, you can correct it
using a conjunction or by changing it to a semicolon or to a
period. You can join two clauses by using a conjunction. You
can make a clause dependent by using a dependent marker or
a semicolon before the independent marker when there are
two stand-alone sentences. When you write two independent
sentences without using any punctuation, it’s called a run-on
sentence. You should use a comma or semicolon or a period.
