Assertion
English 7
Quarter 3 – Module 6
Sydney Elaine A. Martinez

Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iydRkC0gMZI
Express yourself:
1. What is your opinion about the
effect of gold mining?
2. What can you say about the
people who mined the gold?
CHOICE
Assertion is a strong declaration
of statement of one’s opinion,
belief, or a fact.
Often, it is not a factual statement
that can be verified, instead it is
something arguable or debatable.
Examples:
“I have put my every effort to complete
this task today.”
“I believe modular learning is a nice idea
but students have to be responsible
enough for themselves.”
Assertions can be made after reading a
story, or a poem, or even watching a play.
An assertion is made to convince
someone about your interpretation of a
particular literary work.
Example 1:
“I really like this book and I
like the part when Romeo
asked Juliet to dance with him
and after the dance they both
fall in love with each other.
This scene creates very
beautiful thoughts in my
mind. And the tragic end is
also awesome.”
Example 2:
“The movie was hands down
amazing, I was stunned on
how good the animation was,
every new Disney movie that
comes out- the animation is
like 3x better. I really loved all
of the songs too! “
Think about this:
1. In your own words, what is an
assertion?
2. Now that we know what an assertion
is, can your statement about the video
be considered as an assertion? Why? or
why not?
3. What kind of sentence is an assertion?
Is it declarative, interrogative,
imperative, or exclamatory?
Group Activity
Assertions or Not?
Instructions:
1. Identify if the sentences given
