Sentence Structures According to Forms

Welcome to the Speech and Grammar Grade 7 Alternative Delivery Mode (ADM)
Module on Speech Communication and Basic Structures of Grammar. This module was
collaboratively designed, developed and reviewed by educators both from public and private
institutions to assist you, the teacher or facilitator in helping the learners to meet the standards
set by the K to 12 Curriculum while overcoming their personal, social, and economic
constraints in schooling.
This learning resource hopes to engage the learners into guided and independent
learning activities at their own pace and time. Furthermore, this also aims to help learners
acquire the needed 21st century skills while taking into consideration their needs and
circumstances.
This is the second part of the ILM. In this part, the teacher can
give an activity that will help the learner recall his/her previous
learning. Also, it will facilitate if the said activity will help bridge
the learner's past experiences with the new lesson. The
association with “a previous learning” does not automatically
Explore mean the previous lesson but acquired knowledge that will
serve as clue or springboard to process the new one.
The idea here is to come up with an activity that will cater to
both the review and motivation parts of the usual lesson.
2
In this part of ILM, the new lesson will be introduced. A number
of authentic materials may be used to introduce the lesson.
Also, important concepts be emphasized here.
The teacher can present the lesson in a creative way instead
Learn
of just simply giving out the lesson or concepts. The activity
used as a springboard during the “Explore” part may be
dissected for discussion to serve as a concrete example if no
new material is presented. This part is similar to “abstraction”
of the 4As.
This is the last part of ILM wherein the teachers will ask
questions to students to reflect on his/her learning, the
problems encountered while utilizing the ILM.
Sample questions:
Reflect
1.What important concepts have you gained in the lesson?
2.What are the difficulties have you encountered in the
process of learning?
3. How will you apply the lesson learned in real-life
situation?
This part will compile the references used in the ILM. IPA
format will be used to cite the references and separate the list
References of books, electronic and websites.

beginning of the dependent clause.
