2. Construct declarative, interrogative, imperative, and

“Now, let me introduce you the four kinds of sentences
according to use. Would someone read this sentences for me?”
(Student will volunteer to read the first
sentence: “A declarative sentence
makes a statement. It ends with a
period.)
“Thanks. Now, let’s take a look at the example sentences. This
one is a declarative sentence. Could you tell me the reason why
it’s classified as declarative?”
(Student answers: Ma’am, because it
gives an idea and it states a fact. It also
ends with a period)
“Well said. Now, can somebody give me an example of a
declarative sentence?”
(Varied answers)
“Nice answers! Now let’s talk about the second type of
sentence. Would someone read the definition?”
(Student will volunteer to read the first
sentence: “An interrogative sentence
asks a question and ends with a
question mark.)
“Nice one and could you give me an example as well?”
(Varied answers)
“Amazing job! It’s easy to understand, right? Remember that an
interrogative sentence ends with a question mark. Did you get
it?”
“Yes, Ma’am!”
“I also want to remind you that you have to read an interrogative
sentence well. You have to sound like you’re really asking a
question. Don’t just read it as if it’s a declarative sentence so
you won’t be misunderstood when someone listens to you.”
“Yes, Ma’am!”
“That is wonderful! So let’s proceed to the next kind of sentence
which is the imperative sentence. Please read the definition.”
“An imperative sentence gives a gives a
command or request or direction. It also
ends with a period or exclamation
mark.”
“Thanks. Now, let’s check example sentences. It ends with a
period but that doesn’t mean it’s a declarative sentence. Can
somebody explain why?”
(A student volunteers and answers:
Ma’am, it’s because the sentence do not
state a fact an opinion. It states a
request.)
“You got it! Perfect! Now, I want you class to give me an
example of an imperative sentence that gives an order or

direction.”
“Well done! So, what about an imperative sentence that
expresses a request?”
(Varied answers)
“I could see that you got a little confused with the imperative
sentence but I am glad you were able to get its uses. Nice try for
those who gave their answers! Now let’s discuss the last type of
sentence. Exclamatory sentence. Please read the definition.”
(Student reads: “An exclamatory
sentence expresses a strong feeling. It
ends with an exclamation mark.”)
“Thanks. That’s good. Now, I know you’ll find it very easy to
understand its uses. Can somebody give me an example?”
(Varied answers)
“Well done, class! Do you have any questions? Any
clarifications?”
