Things we are doing this week

This week our class got busy on planning and practicing our presentations for our Monday Program this coming last week of September. So this week where our teacher in English is not present yet for this week, we planned to practice during our English period and also even in our Science period. I hope we will have a good program.

Context Clues

Our lesson last week is about word analysis through context clues. We learned that there are kinds of clues. 1. The Synonym clue where the clue is synonymous to the unfamiliar word. 2. The Antonym clue where the clue opposes or it is the antonym of the unfamiliar word. 3. Association with the word where the meaning of the word may be signaled by any word or idea the word may be associated with. 4. Contrast with another word where the clue is not actually the antonym clue but an idea which opposes the meaning of the word and also it may be contrast in words or contrast in clauses. And lastly, 5. Meaning embedded in the sentence where the meaning is placed or described in the sentence.

Lesson we took in English

Last last week we learned about the perfect tenses especially the Past Perfect Tense. where the past perfect tense is used to denote earlier of the two past actions. It has two forms which is the ordinary form(where: had + been + past participle of the main verb) and the continuous form (where: had + been + verb -ing). Also the time expressions used in the tense include when, before, by the time, and after. After we discussed, we had many examples and exersices to enhance more our skills about the lesson.
