    narratives, or convictions.

    What’s In

    Phrase According to YourDictionary (2020), a phrase is a group of words that express

    a concept and is used as a unit within a sentence. Since it has no subject-verb

    structure, phrase is not considered as a sentence such the following underlined phrases:

    The biggest pearl is found in the Philippines. (Prepositional) Dipolog City is the Gateway to Western Mindanao. (Noun) I miss hanging out with friends at Dipolog City Boulevard. (Gerund) Having accomplished all activities in English 7 Module 6, I took screenshots of my answers and send them to my teacher via

    Messenger. (Participial) To access digital modules, visit our school website. (Infinitive)

  • Kinds of Phrases

    at the Citi Mall throughout the world from the bottom of my heart within the family

    2. Noun Phrase – is a phrase that is headed by a noun that includes modifiers

    (Grammar-Monster, 2020) Department of Education locally stranded individuals

    Dipolog City Schools Division modular distance learning inhabitants along coastal areas person with disabilities

    3. Gerund Phrase – is a verbal phrase that begins with a gerund; hence, it

    functions as a noun. A gerund is a word ending in "-ing" that is made from a verb and used like a noun (Cambridge Dictionary, 2020). Jogging an hour every morning energizes my senses. (Subject)

    I love studying in a quiet and cosy room. (Direct Object) My hobby is playing Mobile Legend. (Subject Complement)

    4. Participial Phrase- is a verbal phrase that starts with a participle; hence, it

    functions as an adjective. A participle is the form of a verb that usually ends in "ed" or "ing" and is used as an adjective (Cambridge Dictionary, 2020).

    Inspired by Greta Thunberg, groups of students campaign for a clean and green environment. (The underlined phrase describes the word groups.)

    Listening to Blackpink hits, Cathy enjoys answering her module.

    (The underlined phrase describes Cathy.)

    5. Infinitive Phrase – is a verbal phrase that starts with an infinitive. Infinitive is composed of a preposition “to” and any base form of the verb.

    sentence itself (main clause).

  • Summary Phrases, clauses, and sentences are the fundamental units of language. These

    are group of words with distinct structure and functions. Phrases modify the sentence in various kinds: prepositional phrase, noun phrase, and verbal phrases

    such as gerund phrase, participial phrase, and infinitive phrase. Clauses are different from phrases because the former have subject-verb units. Once a clause

    can stand alone as a sentence, it is called a main clause or independent clause. If a

    clause begins with a subordinating conjunction or a relative pronoun, it is called subordinate clause or dependent clause. Sentences are classified according to use

    (e.g. declarative, interrogative, imperative, and exclamatory) and structure (e.g. simple, compound, complex, and compound-complex).

    1Having a heart that listens and a mind that decides fair and square, she has drawn her

    fellow mentors of various backgrounds in exhibiting the love 2for teaching and mentoring.

    gratefulness exuded when she provides 3numerous valuable pieces of advice among mentors

    and students, and when she has always seen challenges as opportunities with silver linings.

    The Genesis of the Born Leader

    Miss Acosta started her career as a classroom teacher handling social studies,

    Filipino, and values education 6notwithstanding she was a BS Home Economics graduate at

    Silliman University. Adamant to provide her students the necessary knowledge, skills, and

    moral values, 7Miss Acosta handled the three subjects of five classes with ease and

    confidence.

    “Never complain. 8A teacher is always ready all the time. Cultivate a proactive

    character and everything comes easy,” she affirmed. 9While she was teaching and being tasked as the coordinator of Balik Paaralan Para

    sa Out-of-School Adults (BPOSA), Miss Acosta had fascinated herself delving the realms of

    laws and became one of the alumni of Andres Bonifacio College (ABC) School of Law. A

    woman of justice, she committed and involved herself for the protection and the rights of

    teachers in her community particularly the ZNNHS faculty club where she managed to get

    the seal of approval of the Security and Exchange Commission (SEC) granting a 50-year

    legitimacy of the organization.

    Her passion drew the attention of ABC School of Law to confer her the “Special Law

    Student Social Commitment Award.” Subsequently, she took academic units in Master of

    Arts in Educational Management at her former undergraduate alma mater. It took more

    than a decade for her to be promoted as Teacher III. She didn’t mind though.

    “Promotion was just a bonus for me. I am deeply engaged into teaching,” she articulated. 10It was at this moment that world, the universe rather, conspired to destine this

    indefatigable and perspicacious lady to lead her fellow mentors.
