IV. PROCEDURES
A. Review/Introductory The teacher will ask the class: “What are modals?” After consolidating the answer of
Activity the class, the teacher will then give the definition of modals.
- According to Grammarly, Modals are auxiliary verbs (helping verbs) used to
express certain hypothetical conditions, such as advice, capability, or requests
(there’s a full list in the next section). They’re used alongside a main verb to change
its meaning slightly. Because they’re auxiliary verbs, they can’t necessarily be used
on their own.

The teacher will then present sentences. He/she will then ask the class to identify
the modals they can find in each sentence.

1. Arnel may read the resignation letter. (May)

2. Can Ritchel sing at the party? (Can)

3. The Sarigumba family should divide the ten-hectare land. (Should)

4. The patient must take his medicines for his heart ailment. (Must)

5. Friends must not betray one another. (Must not)

Read the dialogue below.

Mr. Flores: Good morning, Joseph.

Joseph: Good morning, Mr. Flores. May I come in?

Mr. Flores: You may. Can you close the door for me?

Joseph: Yes, Sir.

Mr. Flores: Joseph, please get your book, so you and I will review on

modals for your exam. You must learn how to use them.

Joseph: I am sorry, Mr. Flores. I left my book.

Mr. Flores: You must not forget to bring your book. You shall bring it

tomorrow.

Joseph: Yes, Sir.

Mr. Flores: We will use my book. You must be ready when we start the

review. Please get your notebook and pen. By the way, you cannot use

your phone during the tutorial.

Joseph: Yes, Mr. Flores. Anyway, you may not teach me until 12:00 in

the afternoon. Mother and Father will pick me up at 11:00 in the

morning. I need to see a doctor.

Mr. Flores: Ok, Joseph. Let us begin our study.

The teacher will draw a table on the board and will ask the class to identify the
modals found on the dialogue and identify whether the modal express obligation,
permission, or prohibition.

Must May Must not

Can Cannot

Will
 Shall May not

The teacher will then process each answer presented by the class.

C. Analysis/Presenting The teacher will then proceed with the discussion of the lesson.
examples of the new
lesson where the
concepts are clarified Modals of Permission are modals used in asking and in giving permission.
Can, could, and may are modals of permission.

- The modal of permission Can is used to ask permission in an informal way. This
can be used in day-to-day conversations or in informal speech.

Ex. Can I use your ballpen? (Addressed to a friend)

Can you pass me the salt? (Addressed to a family member)
You can bring your toys at the picnic tomorrow. (A mother giving permission to
her child)
Lilith can join us for dinner tonight. (Someone giving permission)
- The modal of permission Could is used to ask permission in a less informal way.
Could is more polite than Can. This can be used in informal speech or
conversations.

Ex. Mr. Reyes, could you pass these documents to the office? (A worker to a co-
worker)
Could I bring my friends to your party? (Asking permission to a friend)

- The modal of permission May is used to ask permission in a formal way. This can
be used in formal speech or formal written text.
Ex. Sir, may I speak up? (Asking to speak from a teacher)
May I know your name, Ma’am? (Asking for someone’s name formally)
Modals of Obligation
- This modal has two usages: to express a firm obligation or necessity (must, will,
& have to)
Ex:
• Shiela must go to school today. (Shiela is a student thus it is her obligation to go
to school. The modal “must” was used to show the necessity of the action to be
done)
• You have to wear mask at all times. (The pandemic is still upon us, therefore it is
a necessity for a masked to be worn at all times. The modal “have to” was used
in the sentence to put emphasis for the action as an obligation)
 The modals “have to” and “must” have equal value and usage. They can be used
interchangeably. However, “must” is commonly used in everyday conversation
because of conciseness.
• Harry will come to the party tonight. (The speaker is telling that Harry will come
to the party tonight indefinitely. The modal “will” was used to show strong
determination that the action will be done in the near future.

- and to express a recommendation or moral obligation (shall, should, & ought

to).
Ex:
• You should go home now. (The speaker urges someone to go home, however
he/she is not obligated to follow the speaker’s advice. The modal should was
used to show that the action was a recommendation.)
• Should I wake up the children? (The speaker is suggesting to wake up the
children, however he/she is not sure of a positive answer. The modal “should”
 was used in the sentence because it is just a suggestion, however the speaker is
not sure if he/he will receive a positive response. )
Note: Ruling tells us that the modal “should” be used if the speaker is not quite sure
of a positive answer.

• You ought to tell mom about your secret. (The speaker urges someone to tell
his/her secret, however it is not obligatory for the person to follow what the
speaker had said. The modal ought to was used to show that the action was a
recommendation.)
• The children shall help their parents. (The sentence tells us that the action will
be done soon. The modal ”shall” was used to show that the action will be done
in the near future, however it does not entail that the doer of the action has
strong determination in doing the action.
• Shall we go for a dance? ( The speaker asked someone for a dance. He/she is
quite sure of a positive answer with the request. The modal “shall” was used in
the sentence as it is a polite suggestion.
⮚ Ruling tells us that the modal “shall” be used if the speaker is quite sure
of a positive answer.
⮚ Shall is only used with I or we. It is used instead of will only in formal
English

Modals of Prohibition are used to show prohibition.
- The prohibition can be subjective (speaker’s opinion) or objective (fact, real
law, or rule.)
- Modal of prohibition is made by adding “not” to a modal.
Ex.
You may say my name.
Modal of permission Main Verb

You may not say my name.

Modal of prohibition Main Verb
- Examples of modals of prohibition are: must not, cannot, and may not.
- Must not is used for prohibitions that are stated from law, fact, or rule.
Ex. People must not drive without a license.
You must not cheat.
You must not skip class.
- Cannot and may not are used to express prohibition in general or in a
formal way, respectively.
Ex. You cannot eat sweets.
Elize may not enter the house. The dogs hate her.

D. Abstraction

The teacher will divide the class into 3 groups. Each group will be assigned to
modals of obligation, modals of prohibition, and modals of permission, respectively.
They will be given 10 mins to read the passage with the group and find the models
assigned to them. On the board, the teacher will draw the table found on page 8 of the
module. He/she will then let the students write their answers on the table.

Task 2. Read the passage below. Write the sentences which contain a modal
of permission, obligation, or prohibition on the first column, and the modals
and their types on the second column.

Lena Went to A Party

Lena was invited to attend Marie’s birthday party. “Mom, can I go to Marie’s
birthday party?” Lena asked her mom. “Yes, Lena. You may attend Marie’s birthday
party. But you should be home by 9 pm,” answered her mom. “Also, you should not
drink alcoholic beverages at the party,” her mom added. “Yes, mom. I shall follow
your instructions. I will go to Marie’s house now,” Lena replied.
At the party, Lena was having so much fun. She was happy to be with Marie and her
other friends. Lena enjoyed eating and drinking the food served at the party. She
especially loved the fruit juice given to the party guests. Lena enjoyed it so much that
she was not able to keep track of the time.

“Marie, could you open the window? I suddenly felt dizzy,” uttered Lena.
“Oh, Lena! Have you been drinking the fruit punch at the table? That punch was
mixed with liquor!” exclaimed Marie.
“You can sit here; the seat is free. You wait here. I will ask my dad to drive you
home,” said Marie. After a while, Marie’s father approached Lena. “Lena, dear, I will
drive you home. Shall we go?” said Marie’s father.

Upon arriving home, Lena’s mother expressed her disappointment on her daughter.
“Lena, haven’t I told you to be here by 9 pm?! It’s half past 10 pm already, and you
reek of liquor!” “You are grounded young lady! You cannot go out of the house for a
 week! You can’t use your phone either,” said Lena’s mother. Lena regretted not
heeding her mother’s words. “I should have followed what my mom told me,” said
Lena to herself.
