In this lesson, you are expected to use ‘be’ verbs (am, is, are, was, were) correctly in sentences. Claude, a transferee and your new classmate, was asked by your teacher to introduce himself to the class. Let us know how he introduced himself to the group. Hi, classmates! My name is Claude B. Reyes. I was born on May 8, 2012. I am eight (8) years old. I am an only child. English is my favorite subject. My hobbies are playing basketball and singing. My supportive and loving parents are my best buddies.  What is the name of your new classmate?  How old is he?  When was he born?  What are his hobbies?  How did he describe his parents? The highlighted words above are called ‘be’ verbs. They are used to express a state of being. D Learning Task 1: Write C if the underlined ‘be’ verb is correctly used in each sentence, and IC if it is incorrectly used. Write your answers in your notebook. _____1. The books were on the floor. Pick them up now. _____2. My sister and my mother am both busy today. _____3. Celia is in the hospital yesterday. _____4. There are many items in our local supermarket. _____5.

Pronoun Present Past I am was You (Singular) are were He/She/It is was We are were You (Plural) are were They are were ‘Be’ verbs am , is and are are used to show present condition.

Examples: I was sick yesterday. Last year, he was the class secretary. She was our teacher in Grade 1. They were quiet last night. Remember: A ‘be’ verb should agree with the noun or pronoun in number (singular and plural). Use is or was if a noun or pronoun being talked about is singular. Examples: The fruit is ripe. The fruit was ripe It is ripe. It was ripe. Use are or were if a noun or pronoun being talked about is plural. Examples: The flowers are fresh. The flowers were fresh. They are fresh. They were fresh. PIVOT 4A CALABARZON English G3 7  E Learning Task 2: Fill in each blank with the correct verb. Write only the letter of your answer in your notebook. _____1.

It describes an action that happened in the past, is happening at present and will happen in the future. Verbs take different forms depending on their subjects and their time references. In this lesson, you are expected to use simple verbs (past, present and future) in sentences. Let us examine the pictures below. Describe the things that the characters do in each picture. D Learning Task 1: Complete each sentence by underlining the correct form of the verb in the parentheses. Write your answers in your notebook. 1. Anthony (plants, planted) fruit-bearing trees in his farm yesterday. 2. Mia (will bring, brings) her pet dog to the veterinarian next week. 3. My friends (watch, will watch) a movie this weekend. 4. I (visited, visit) my grandparents every weekend. 5. Eunice (sang, will sing) a song during my cousin’s wedding next month. PIVOT 4A CALABARZON English G3 9 Simple Tenses of Verbs The three simple tenses of verbs are simple present, simple past and simple future. Study how verbs are formed. Base Form Simple Past Simple Present Simple Future bake baked bake will bake join joined join will join jump jumped jump will jump cook cooked cook will cook try tried try will try speak spoke speak will speak run ran run will run begin began begin will begin read read read will read let let let will let The simple present is used to describe a habitual action or general truth. Examples: The children go to school every day. Mrs. Cruz works in the school canteen. The sun rises in the east and sets in the west. There are seven days in a week. Remember: 1. Use the -s form of the verb if the subject is singular. Example: Trina reviews her lessons every night. 2. Use the simple form of the verb if the subject is plural (more than one). Example: Faith and Flint buy flowers for their mother. 3. Use the simple form of the verb with the pronouns I and you. Examples: I visit my cousins in the province every summer. You have a nice dress. 4. If the subject is singular and the verb ends in -y, and -y follows a consonant, change -y to –i, and add -es. Examples: Alden studies his lessons well. The simple past of a verb is used to describe an action or condition that took place at a specific point in the past. Example: The students visited a museum two days ago. We visited our grandparents last week. Regular and irregular verbs have different ways in forming their past tense. Simple past of regular verbs are formed by adding -d or -ed to the base form of the verb. PIVOT 4A CALABARZON English G3 10  dance - danced climb - climbed introduce - introduced water - watered The spelling of some irregular verbs does not change. cut—cut hurt—hurt put—put hit—hit The spelling of the verb read does not change, but its pronunciation changes. The pronunciation changes from long /e/ to short /e/. read - read Some irregular verbs change their spelling. leave—left write –wrote eat—ate go—went take—took bring—brought sing—sang stand—stood make—made think—thought send—sent fly—flew Remember: If the verb ends in -y, and -y follows a consonant, change -y to -i and add -ed. cry - cried try - tried carry - carried marry - married Verbs in simple future tense are used to express an action or condition that will or will not happen or exist in the future. To form the future tense of a verb, use will + the base form of the verb. Examples: They will attend the club meeting tomorrow. My father will watch my performance tonight. E Learning Task 2: Complete each sentence by writing the correct form of the verb in the parentheses. Write your answers in your notebook. (take) 1. Cardo _____ part in an online quiz show and won the grand prize. (fall) 2. The team rescued the boy who ____ into the river. (win) 3. Last year, Jasmine _____ first prize in the 1000-meter race.

Some pronouns are also used to show possession. These pronouns that emphasize ownership of something are called possessive pronouns.

PIVOT 4A CALABARZON English G3 25  Making Inferences and Drawing Conclusions Lesson I In reading texts, you have to be very careful in analyzing each detail. These details will give you deeper understanding on the content and context that a picture or text provides. Making inferences and drawing conclusions will help you further enhance your critical thinking skills. In this lesson, you are expected to make inferences and draw conclusions based on texts (e.g. pictures, titles and content words). Let us examine the picture below.  Can you tell what each character does in the picture?  Can you guess the location shown by the picture?  Can you tell the time or period portrayed in the picture? D Learning Task 1: Identify the occupation portrayed by each picture below. Write your answers in your notebook. 1. 2. A B F G PIVOT 4A CALABARZON English G3 26  4. 5. 6. Learning Task 2: In your notebook, state the job/tasks being performed by each character portrayed in Learning Task 1. Making Inferences An inference tells an assumption based on what has been read, seen or observed. Making inferences relies on the examination of facts based on given pictures and/or texts. Inferences are also made by determining what each picture or text suggests. Drawing Conclusions A conclusion is a final information or statement drawn from pictures viewed or texts read. Conclusion also relies on facts. It allows the reader to think of what could be the output or end result based on reading and/or observations.
