B. ANALYSIS
Using your answers in my questions, let us dig deeper on how it relates to our topic for
today.
What have you observed in the sentences? How does the subject, verb and the object
of the verb function in the sentence?
So, if we can classify these sentences if it’s in active or passive voice, the first sentence
falls under what voice?
C. ABSTRACTION
The first sentence is in active voice sentence and the second one is a passive voice
sentence.
Now, let’s define what is an active voice and passive voice.
Definition of Terms
Active Voice
It tells what a person or thing does.
The SUBJECT performs the action and typically comes before the verb.
The OBJECT is who or what receives the action and typically comes after the
verb.
Example:
*Marcowill finishhis project by tomorrow.

Passive Voice
It tells what is done to someone or something.
The SUBJECT performs the action and typically comes after the verb.
The OBJECT is who or what receives the action and typically comes before the
verb.
Example:

Obj Verb Subj
Based from the examples given earlier, can you say that there’s a pattern or formula in
identifying each type of voices?
