MODULE IN ENLISH 6
Second Quarter/ Week 4/ Day 1

OBJECTIVE: Compose clear and coherent sentences using appropriate grammatical


structures: -Adverbs of frequency EN6G-IId-6.7

YOUR LESSON FOR TODAY:


An adverb of frequency tells us how often something takes place. It answers the question
“How often?” or “How frequently?”.

Two types of Adverb of Frequency


1. Adverbs of Definite Frequency – describe the exact frequency of an action. These adverbs
come at the end of the sentence.
Examples: hourly, daily, weekly, monthly, yearly every second, once a minute, twice a year
once, twice, once or twice, three times
Most companies pay taxes yearly.
The janitor checks the toilet every hour.
The directors meet weekly.
Sometimes, for reasons of emphasis some adverbs of definite frequency may go at the
beginning of a sentence.
Everyday, more than five thousand people die on our roads.

2. Adverbs of Indefinite Frequency – don’t specify an amount of time. The amount of time
described by these words is unclear because it depends on the context they are used in.
Adverb of indefinite frequency mainly go before the main verb (except the main verb “to
be”)
Study the following examples below:

100% always I always wake up at 6 o’clock.

90% usually I usually come home after work

80% normally/generally I normally swim after school.

70% often/frequently I often spend Christmas with friends.

50% sometimes I sometimes play tennis on weekend.

30% occasionally I occasionally eat Japanese food.

10% seldom I seldom go to the library.

5% rarely I rarely listen to the radio.

0% never I never listen to rock music.

Occasionally, sometimes, often, frequently and usually can go at the beginning or end of a
sentence. Rarely and seldom can go at the end of a sentence

TRY TO DISCOVER:

Read the following text carefully.

Mary has a lot of hobbies and interests. She usually gets up early so she
can run before work. She doesn’t often have time to swim but occasionally goes
on Saturday during summer. Mary often rides a horse at a stable near her home.
She sometimes goes after work but she usually goes horseback riding on
Sundays. She loves music. She always goes to choir practice on Wednesday
evenings and sings in church on Sundays. She doesn’t have extra money so she
rarely goes to concerts in the city. She seldom watches TV because she likes
doing things outside. She isn’t often alone because she has a lot of friends. She
occasionally does something alone, but she usually does her activities with one of
her friends. She is a happy woman.

 What do you call the underlined words in the text? What type of adverb of frequency?
 How often does Mary get up early?
 How often does she go to concerts? Why?
 What is the percentage of her time used in choir practice?
 How often does she watch TV?
 What do you notice in the placement of adverbs in the sentence?
The adverbs of frequency used or found in the sentence are indirect so the adverbs are
placed before the verbs.

ARE YOU READY TO PRACTICE?

GENERALIZATION:

Adverbs of frequency are adverbs that answer the question “How often?” or “How frequently?”.
They tell us how often something happens.
Adverbs of frequency can be subdivided into two categories: definite and indefinite.
 Definite adverbs of frequency specify an amount of time. They include words like hourly,
daily, weekly, yearly all of which give a definite amount of time. These adverbs are usually
used at the end of the sentence.
 Indefinite adverbs of frequency don’t specify an amount of time. They include words like
always, rarely, often, always, never, sometimes, etc. The amount of time described by these
words is unclear because it depends on the context they are used in. These adverbs are
used before the main verb.

MODULE IN ENLISH 6
Second Quarter/ Week 4/ Day 2

OBJECTIVE: Write a 4-paragraph composition showing comparison and contrast


EN6WC-IId-2.2.6

YOUR LESSON FOR TODAY:


Writing a Comparison and Contrast Paragraph.
In a compare and contrast paragraph, you write about the similarities and differences
between two people, places, things or ideas. You explain how they are both alike and
different.

Remember the following:


 Choose related subjects. Don’t use two subjects that are completely unrelated because
if you do that it would be hard to find similarities.
 Create a Venn Diagram.
Venn diagram helps to visually represent the similarities and differences between two
concepts. It’s an illustration that uses circles to show relationship among things. .

Example: comparison between mammals and fish.

similarities

differences differences

 Include topic sentence. Make sure that you include both topics that your paragraph is
going to cover so you want your readers to know exactly what it is you’re going to
compare and contrast.
 Follow your topic sentence with supporting details grouped together. For example, if you
want to start your paragraph with how your two subjects are the same or maybe you
want to say how they are different first, make sure you group them together. Don’t jump
around all over the place because your readers will have a very hard time following your
writing.
 Include clue words such as:
For similarities - For differences -
Is similar to on the other hand while
both however unlike
also but
too in contrast to
as well differ from

TRY TO DISCOVER:

Read the following composition showing the similarities and differences of dogs and cats.

Cats and Dogs

Cats and dogs make excellent pets but appropriate choice depends on pet
management, cost and accommodation.
Cats and dog both have the ability to form strong bonds with their owners. Cats enjoy
human company and require love, attention and affection from their chosen family and dogs,
too. Cats show affection to their humans as well as the dogs.
On the other hand, cats don’t have to be watched during the day and they are easier to
get care if the owner travels. In contrast, dogs should not be left alone for they may get in
trouble if left by themselves and it is more difficult to look for someone to look after them when
the owner travels. Cats are less expensive and are less likely to damage property or hurt
themselves. However, dogs are more expensive and often chew on furniture and sometimes
they get into fights and hurt themselves. Cats don’t take up much space or need a large area
to run around. Unlike dogs, they often need a yard or fence because they like to run around.
When adopting a pet one must consider the management, cost and accommodation
that the pet would require. Owners who don’t think about this aspect will often not care for their
pet in a safe manner.

 What are being compared?


 Which paragraph shows the similarities between the cats and dogs?
 Which paragraph states the differences between the two pets?
 What clue words are used for similarities and differences?
 How does the paragraph begin? How does it end?

ARE YOU READY TO PRACTICE?

now ready to answer the following exercises. You are expected to be honest in giving your
answers. Good Luck!

PRACTICE EXERCISE 2:

Below is a four-paragraph composition consisting of the introduction, comparison, contrast and


the conclusion. Complete the Venn diagram showing the similarities and differences of
basketball and soccer.

Basketball and soccer are sports with many similarities and differences. Both sports are
fun to play and each one has many beneficial qualities. Here are some of the similarities and
differences with basketball and soccer.
Basketball and soccer are played with a round ball. They both provide a ton of
cardiovascular exercise such as running; so if you want to get in shape these are the sports to
play. A referee judges each game. When a player breaks the rules he or she is called for a
foul. A soccer player receives a red or yellow card and a basketball player is called for a foul.
Finally, a score is kept in each game. The team with the highest score wins.
Even though basketball and soccer are similar, differences do exist. Even though an
athlete dribbles the ball in both sports, a basketball player uses his hands and a soccer player
uses his feet. Usually soccer is played outside on a large field and basketball is played indoor
on a court made out of wood. Basketball is played with 5 players and soccer has 11. Lastly,
basketball has four quarters and soccer has two halves.
In conclusion both sports are fun and exciting to play. Each one offers exercise and
competitiveness. Also, they are unique in their own way.

Basketball Soccer

PRACTICE EXERCISE 3:

Use the similarities and differences of two breeds of dogs to complete the paragraph.

PRACTICE EXERCISE 4:

Together with a family member, talk about the similarities and differences of the two top
noontime shows in the Philippines, Eat Bulaga and Showtime. Make a list of comparison and
contrast between the two shows and write a 4-paragraph composition about it.
Examples of topic compare and contrast:
 Format (Running time, etc.)

GENERALIZATION:

Comparing is showing the similarities and contrasting is showing differences between two
things that are related in some ways. In making a 4-paragraph composition, the first paragraph
should include an introduction. The second paragraph must focus on the similarities while the
third paragraph is on the differences. The fourth paragraph is the conclusion of your
composition. Use word clues in comparison such as similar too, both, like, also too and as well
as. In contrast you may use on the other hand, however, in contrast, but, unlike, while,
whereas, etc.

DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION NATIONAL CAPITAL REGION


SCHOOLS DIVISION OF PASAY CITY

MODULE IN ENLISH 6
Second Quarter/ Week 4/ Day 3

OBJECTIVE: Infer meaning of borrowed words and content specific terms using –context
clues, -affixes and roots and other strategies
(Literary Terms)

YOUR LESSON FOR TODAY:

When you figure out the meaning of an unknown word from other words you are finding word
meaning in context. The words and phrases around of an unknown word often provide clues to
the word’s meaning. These clues are called context clues.

A. Types of Context Clues:


1. Synonym Clue – a synonym or word with the same meaning is used in the sentence.
Example: Filipino hospitality is highly appreciated by numerous tourists, thus, many
desired to come back and settle here.
2. Compare and contrast clue – a comparison or a contrast of the unknown word is
provided. The opposite meaning or a situation that illustrates the opposite meanings
makes clear the meaning of a challenging word.
Example: Kiko was upset, instead of happy about his birthday.
3. Definition clue – a direct definition or explanation in simple terms is provided for the
unknown word. A definition follows a comma( , ), dash( - ) or such words as or, is called,
that is and in other words.
Example: Most castles had high walls and were surrounded by a water-filled ditch
called a moat.
4. Example clue – example illustrates and makes clear the meaning of the new word or
concept. Authors used signal words such as including, for instance, to illustrate, are
examples of and for example.
Example: Arturo is extremely competitive. For instance, he bets on almost anything.
5. Descriptive clue – a description of the word is provided and is often set off by commas.
Example: Gingivitis, neglected inflamed gums, is a serious tooth decay.

B. Affixes and Roots:


An affix is one or more than one syllables or letters added at the beginning or at the end of a
root word to change its meaning. An affix could be a prefix or suffix
1. Prefixes - are letters which we add to the beginning of a word to make a new word with a
different meaning.
Example: Those dark clouds foreshadow a storm.
The prefix fore means before or earlier, foreshadow means a warning or
sign of a future event.
2. Suffixes - are letters which we add to the end of a word to make a new word with a
different meaning.
Example: The editor and publisher of this magazine were criticized by some
readers.
Suffixes or and er both mean a person. An editor is a person who edits
and a publisher is a person who publishes.
3. Root – is a main part of a word with no prefix or a suffix added to it.

TRY TO DISCOVER:
Read the passage below. See if you can figure out what the word scant means

Many gardeners collect seeds for their gardens from their favorite wildflowers. They
collect seeds from dying blooms, put them in plastic bags, and later, sow the seeds in their
garden. Wildflowers are popular because they thrive in areas where soil is poor. Since water
is in scant supply in many communities, you may want to consider wildflowers for your garden.
Many gardeners who live in a city or town using deep well water have thriving wildflower
gardens.

Look carefully at the sentences that come before and after the word scant. Focus on what the
clues on the sentences tell you.
Wildflowers grew well, even if there is a drought or poor soil.
They are good for gardeners who live in areas dependent on deep well water.
So the word scant must mean ________.
A. Insufficient B. adequate C. enough

Study the table below


Root / Affixes Meaning Word
bio life, living biology, the study of living things
pro forward, for, promoted – advance or raise to a higher rank
micro small microscope, a tool used to see very small things

Analyze the following sentence.


When writing her autobiography, Alice tried to highlight all of the milestones in her
success.
Based from the above list of roots and their meanings, what do you think is the meaning
of the word autobiography? What other words in the sentence give you the clue to its
meaning?
You are right! Autobiography means a self-written life story.

MODULE IN ENLISH 6
Second Quarter / Week 4 / Day 4

OBJECTIVE: Share brief impromptu remarks about topics of interest

YOUR LESSON FOR TODAY:

An impromptu speech, is the one that a


speaker delivers without any prior preparation on
the topic. Impromptu, itself, means “doing
something without preparation”. It is given with little
or no preparation, yet almost always with some
advance knowledge in the topic. For example, if
called on to speak in class a pupil might give a short
impromptu speech about the topic that was in the
assigned readings.
What do you do if you are asked to speak at
the last minute?

The following are tips for impromptu speaking

1. Make sure to plan an introduction and conclusion. If possible, take a few moments to think
about what you want to say to introduce the topic and have some ways of concluding.
2. Make a few notes for yourself on a card or phone or text yourself a few words to remind
yourself on the important ideas.
3. Consider the simple three-part outline of an introduction, body and conclusion and fit your
ideas into that pattern.
 Introduction - Use to command the attention of the audience and get them interested in
the speech. Avoid gimmicks and stay consistent with your speech topic and style of
speaking. It may include humor, startling ideas, drama, suspenseful story, quotations, etc.
 Body – State the point and present the supporting evidences. Audiences have to
remember all of your ideas and their connections. Most speakers should work to limit
themselves to the main ideas which are organized in a clear pattern that is highlighted for
the audience.
 Conclusion - Summarizes your main points. Remind the audience of the main ideas
explored in your speech. Try to finish with a sentence or two that leaves your audience
with a sense of the significance of what they just heard. This may be accomplished by
returning to the focus of the introduction, ending with a powerful and appropriate
quotation, or concluding with your own assessment of the importance of the topic.
4. If you do not know what to say next, you can summarize and paraphrase what you have just
said and then will be probably be ready to move on to the next topic.
5. Remember that in most situations you will know more about the subject than the audience.
Usually you will not be called up to speak impromptu about something you know nothing
about, so you have probably spoken about the general topic before or you have
knowledge to share with others.
6. Talk like you mean it. In other words, speak with conviction You are explaining your ideas or
knowledge and you are an authority.
7. Relax.

TRY TO DISCOVER:

Tony was asked by his teacher to talk about the advantages and disadvantages of the
internet. He was caught off guard by the sudden request of his teacher but instead of refusing
he smiled and accepted the challenge. He was given by his teacher three minutes to think
about what to say. So he got a piece of paper and wrote down some notes.
Here is Tony’s impromptu speech:

Good morning, teacher and classmates. What is life without internet? Can you last a
day without it? Internet has become a part of our daily lives. We use the internet for
communication, entertainment, commerce and even in education.

People use Twitter, Facebook, Messenger or Instagram to communicate. We also use it


to post something about a part of our lives. Facebook and Twitter are like diaries so whatever
important stuffs happen we post them on these websites. Also, internet provides us with
entertainment. Who would not want watch a cute and cuddly videos of a cat in Youtube or
watch your favorite TV series or movies in Netflix? It’s a great way to relax and unwind
specially during the weekends or in a bad day. In the information age, internet is a great way of
doing commerce. Sites like Shoppe or Lazada is a great way of buying and selling stuff which
is way more convenient than just going to the mall or a physical store. Like for example, during
this quarantine period, we ran out of supply of alcohol and masks. Since we cannot go out we
just ordered from an online seller and in four days’ time the items were delivered right to our
doorstep. It was so convenient. Everything is just under your fingertips and in a single click you
can have anything you want. The internet also makes learning more efficiently. Online learning
or education has become a thing in the 21st century with the help of the internet by connecting
us directly to an educator or institution of learning. We can now learn remotely and only needs
a laptop or tablet to access information from the world wide web. With everything else, there
are always disadvantages in using the internet. Bullying or cyberbullying have become
rampant. Internet addiction has become a problem because some people have wasted much
time online that negatively affected their lives, studies and work. A cousin of mine got
reprimanded by his parents because he got a failing grade due to his uncontrolled gaming
habit that he got no time to study. The problem of hacking and fake goods are two of the most
serious threats that we as users should be aware of.

Internet is a very powerful tool that we can use to enrich our lives but we should also be
aware of its disadvantages. We should use its potential for good and avoid using it to harm or
destroy someone. Thank you!

OBJECTIVE: Gather relevant information from various sources –Online References

YOUR LESSON FOR TODAY:

Online references are the resources that are accessible via the
Internet and World Wide Web.
In general, web pages and documents on the internet that provide
useful information are known as online resources. Websites such as
www.wikipedia.com, www.dictionary.com and www.youtube.com are just
some of the most popular online resources that people tend to go to for
information.

Kinds of online references


1. Online Reference Books – these are the books usually found in the library like encyclopedia,
dictionary, atlas and directories but in digital and online form. Examples are Wikipedia,
Scholarpedia, Dictionary.com, merriam-webster.com, www.yellow-pages.ph, worldatlas.com
2. Search Engine sites– the most popular websites on the internet. A search engine
identifies and look items in a database that correspond to keywords or characters specified
by the user. It is used especially for finding particular sites on the World Wide Web.
Examples are Yahoo, Bing and Google.
3. Video Sharing platform – a very popular video sharing network where you can view, share
or upload videos to the websites. The most popular are Youtube, Vimeo, TikTok and Twitch.
4. Blogs – A blog (shortening of “weblog”) is an online journal or informational website
displaying information in the reverse chronological order, with the latest posts appearing
first. It is a platform where a writer or even a group of writers share their views on an
individual subject. Examples are Thelearningbasket.com, Edukasyon.ph and homescool.ph
5. Social Media sites - Social media refer to websites and applications that are designed to
allow people to share content quickly, efficiently, and in real-time. While many people

Examples of news sites are Inquirer.net, gmanetwork/news, news.abscbn.com, mb.com.ph
and www.philstar.com
7. Internet/Web forum - An Internet forum, or message board, is an online discussion site

Xyrille has an assignment. She has to search in the internet the following:

English ----- meaning and correct pronunciation of the word


“soliloquy”
Science ---- video of how blood circulates to the body
AP ----------- latest news/update about covid-19
Math -------- how to find the area of a trapezoid

What online sources do you think will she use?


 In English she will use an online reference book, the dictionary. She can go to
dictionary.com to look for the meaning and correct pronunciation of the word soliloquy.
 In Science she will probably use a video sharing platform, like youtube. In youtube she can
watch a video about the circulation of the blood in the body.
 In AP, she can visit a news sites such as abscbnnews.com to get the latest information on
covid-19.
 In Math, she can search on a search engine like google to look for a possible solution on

Before, all information came in printed form, that changed with the advent of the internet.
Different information become more accessible by browsing the internet, much as you would
browse the shelves of a library, you can access information on seemingly limitless
topics. There are billions of pages of information on the World Wide Web, and finding relevant
and reliable information can be a challenge. Search engines are powerful tools that index
millions of web sites. When entering a keyword into a search engine, you will receive a list with
the number of hits or results and links to the related sites. Students often uncritically accept
information they see in print or on computer screens. Students should be encouraged to
carefully evaluate sources found on the internet. The evaluation will help students
analyze web resources in terms of accuracy, authority, objectivity, timeliness, and coverage.
Consideration of these factors will weed out many of the inaccurate or trivial sites students
may encounter.
