SAMPLE DIALOGUE

Maggie : I don't feel well today.

Vince : If you feel sick, go to the doctor!

Maggie : I don't want to go to the doctor. If I go to the doctor, I will have to pay a lot of

money!

Vince : If you don't go to the doctor, you will be more sick!

Maggie : I know. I don't like feeling this way. If I don't go to the doctor, I will rest at

home.

Vince : If I come to pick you up, will you let me drive you to the doctor?

Maggie : That's very nice of you, thank you.

2. The students, guided by the teacher, will be asked to read the selection. They will also identify the conditional sentences given in the dialogue and determine the type used.

3. The teacher will process students’ answers and relate the activity to the topic.

Presentation

1. The teacher will introduce and discuss the lesson on Conditionals through a Powerpoint slide presentation.

2. The students will be asked to identify the two main clauses found in each sentence:

· if-clause = the conditional statement

· main clause = the consequence

3. The teacher shall discuss the tenses of verbs used in each clause.

Application (Practice Exercise)

1. The students shall work in groups of 5-6. They will conduct an activity called “Conditional Chain.”

2. The teacher shall post questions on the board and each student (one student followed by another) in a group should be able to give an answer using conditionals. The questions are as follows:

· Round 1: What will you do if you finish college?

· Round 2: What will you do if you win the lottery?

· Round 3: What will you do to relax after class?

· Round 4: What will you do if you have some free time on Saturday?

· Round 5: What will you do if you didn’t get your dream job?

· Round 6: What will you do if you catch a cold this week?

3. Each student should answer based on their assigned question. There should be no repeating of answers.
