Vl. PROPER DISCUSSION

But before that we must read our Lesson Objectives (The students listen attentively to the teacher)

“At the end of 45 minutes of class discussion, 90

percent of the Grade 8 section Narra students are
expected to:

a. Use of appropriate grammatical signals or

expressions suitable to various patterns of paragraph
development. Jayann : “ Yes mam,
b.. Understand the importance of constructing coherent
paragraphs; and
c. Write sentences using appropriate grammatical Cause and Effect - a pattern of paragraph development that is
signals or expressions suitable to various patterns of used to show the relationship between ideas, topics, etc. It
paragraph development … describes how one event influences a later event or what caused
one event to take place.
so…

“ Our topic for today is the same as in the previous

lesson but now it mainly focuses on how we connect
and use appropriately these Grammatical Signals or
Expressions in creating Cause and Effect and Problem
and Solution sentences. “

“ But before that we must know what is Cause and

Effect, may I call Jayann to read…”

Allen :

“ Grammatical Signals on Cause and Effect-

These are words used to describe how an action or event is
“ Okay Thankyou Jayann” caused by another event or action. It describes how one event
influenced a later event or what caused an event to take place.
“ As Jayann read it is used to show the relationship Example of Grammatical Signals on Cause and Effect:
between ideas… or simply it is the relationship between
events or things. Understand” ? Therefore so hence
Consequently due to
As a result for this reason
because thus

“ Next moving forward to Grammatical Signals on Cause

and Effect , may I hear the voice of Allen”...please read
Mr. Allen”...

(Students carefully listens to teacher while discussing the

lessons)

Okay Thankyou Mr. Allen “

“ According to what your classmate read, Grammatical ( Ana is raising her hand)
signals describe how an action or event is caused by
another event or action…”
Anna: “ Our Grammatical Signal mam is the “therefore”
“ And now I have some examples on how these
Grammatical Signals are properly used in constructing
Cause and Effect sentences… ( Ana will respond on the questions)

“ okay Number 1 Example : Anna:

“ It state reason why “I stayed at home” for the reason that “ It
It was raining; therefore, I stayed at home. was raining”

“ In this sentence our Cause is “ It was raining” and our

Effect is “ I stayed at home” .. Understood?

“ So what is our Grammatical Signal?...

“ Why?”...

Daniel is raising his hand)

“Okay Very Good Ana, “therefore” is our Grammatical “ due to the rain” is our Cause and the Effect is “I stayed at
Signal because “therefore” shows the reason why “I home” .
stayed at home” is because “It was raining”.

Our Grammatical Signal here is “due to” it shows something

happen that leads to an effect which is “ I stayed at home”
Another Example :

I stayed at home due to the rain.

“ Who wants to try …”

“ Okay Mr. Daniel you're raising your hand”

“ Yes Mam”

“ Okay good, and what is the Grammatical Signal that is

used?”...

( Allen will respond)

“ Okay very good, the Grammatical Signal is “ due to”
because it state what happen “due to the rain” so as Allen:
the result “ I stayed at home”
“ Problem- Solution - is one method of organization, composed of
two main sections the Problem and Solution”...
I think you already understand now how Grammatical
Signal works in Cause and Effect sentences.

“ and now we are moving forward to :

“ Problem-Solution “... Students listen carefully)

May I call Allen to read the Problem-Solution”..

“ Okay thank you Mr. Allen…

“Problem-Solution simply have a Problem and a “ Yes Mam”

Solutions,
Now we can use the Grammatical Signals in a Problem-
Solutions sentence.. All students:

“ Grammatical signals on Problem-Solution - these are words that

“ Take a look at this example : are used to present and explain a problem. When you use these
expressions, you propose a possible solution to solve the
Many students have difficulty in answering their problem. If there is no solution, only the problem is presented”
modules. To address this, parents are asked to assist
their children in accomplishing the activities. EXAMPLE:

“ First we must look at the PROBLEM which is “ Many problem the dilemma is
students have difficulty in answering their modules… solved one answer is
to solve this so that
and our SOLUTION is “ parents are asked to assist their to address this proposed solution
children in accomplishing the activities…

Understood Class?

“ Okay Good, to find the Grammatical Signals please

must all read on Problem- Solution”...

Jayann: “ Our Grammatical Signal here is “to address this”

because it shows how the problem can be solved by having a
specific solution”

“ Okay thank you students, so based on the example

given,

The Grammatical Signals in the sentence is ?

“ Yes mam”
“ Yes Jayann?...
“ No mam”

“ Okay very good , the signals shows how the problem

can be solved by
“ Parents are asked to assist their children in
accomplishing the activities”

“ understand class ?..

Any clarification”?..
Akesha: “ Our Grammatical Signals is “proposed solution”
because it shows a technical solution “to give modules” those
Another example … students who have no gadgets for their online education.

The number of students who have no gadgets for their

online education is high. A proposed solution is to give
them modules.

“ but first we must Identify the Problem and Solution”...

yes Ms. Akesha?”...

“ Yes mam”

“ Okay our Grammatical Signals is “proposed solution”

that shows how the problem must be solved by “giving
them modules”.

Okay so I think you all can now understand how to

appropriately use the Grammatical Signals… and I think
it is clear now?...
