AM (Asynchronous)
A. Introduction of Topic
Task 1: Reading Time!
Time is something that we all can never get back, which is why it is so vital and valuable.
It is thus important that you do things with a keen respect for time, lest you run out of it
when you take it for granted. Read the selection, “Midsummer” by Manuel Arguilla, on
pages 102-106 of your textbook so you can better reflect on the importance of time.

B. Lesson Discussion
Many Filipino customs and practices, like

the pagmamano, are worth practicing
even in today’s fast-paced, modern times.
How to Find the Main Idea
The main idea of a paragraph is the primary point or concept that the author wants to
communicate to the readers about the topic. Hence, in a paragraph, when the main
idea is stated directly, it is expressed in what is called the topic sentence. It gives the
overarching idea of what the paragraph is about and is supported by the details in
subsequent sentences in the paragraph.
Finding the main idea is critical to understanding what you are reading. It helps the
details make sense and have relevance, and provides a framework for remembering
the content. Try these specific tips to pinpoint the main idea of a passage.
1) Identify the Topic
Read the passage through completely, then try to identify the topic. Who or what is
the paragraph about?
2) Summarize the Passage
English 7 Page 1 of 3
After reading the passage thoroughly, summarize it in your own words in one
sentence. Pretend you have just ten to twelve words to tell someone what the
passage is about—what would you say?
3) Look at the First and Last Sentences of the Passage
Authors often put the main idea in or near either the first or last sentence of the
paragraph or article, so isolate those sentences to see if they make sense as the
overarching theme of the passage. Be careful: sometimes the author will use words
like but, however, in contrast, nevertheless, etc. that indicates that the second
sentence is the main idea. If you see one of these words that negate or qualify the
first sentence, that is a clue that the second sentence is the main idea.
4) Look for Repetition of Ideas
If you read through a paragraph and you have no idea how to summarize it because
there is so much information, start looking for repeated words, phrases, or related
ideas.

B. Lesson Discussion
Adjective Clause
An adjective clause is a dependent clause that functions as an adjective in the sentence.
Adjective clauses can also be called relative clauses. An adjective clause begins with a relative
pronoun or a relative adverb. Often the relative pronoun or relative adverb will function as the
subject of the clause. Here is a list of relative pronouns:
who whom which that whose
Here is a list of relative adverbs:
when why where
How to find an adjective clause:

1) A dependent clause in a sentence will always contain both a subject and a verb. Make sure
that when you find something you think is a clause that it does have a subject and a verb.
2) An adjective clause will begin with a relative pronoun or a relative adverb. Does the clause
that you found begin with one of those?
3) Finally, does the clause answer the same types of questions that an adjective answers?
Does it tell you which one, what kind, or how many? Does it give you more information about
a noun or pronoun that comes before it? If so, then you have found an adjective clause.
Examples of Adjective Clause:

Below are some examples of sentences containing adjective clauses, with explanations.
1) The lady who lives across the street is my aunt.
The subject of the clause is "who" and the verb is "lives". This clause is giving us more
information about the "lady"-which one?
2) The book that is on the chair belongs to Marvin.

The subject of the clause is "that" and the verb is "is". This clause is giving us more
information about the "book"-which one.
3) I do not like people who are mean to animals. (gives more information about people)
4) Did you go to the school where my friend Jim goes? (gives more information about school)
5) The moment when the clown burst in to surprise the teacher was great! (gives more
information about the moment)
6) The reason why I left is a secret. (gives more information about reason)
7) Can you see the bird that is on the fence? (gives more information about bird)
8) The cat whom we are watching just caught a mouse! (gives more information about the
cat)
9) The boy whose shoes are on the floor is my little brother. (gives more information about
the boy)
10) I like pizza, which is also the favorite of my sister Jean. (gives more information about
pizza)
