1. Explicit and Implicit Claims in a Text Prepared by: VANESSA P. RAMONES

2. OBJECTIVES Identifies claims explicitly or implicitly made in a written text

3. Know these words: Explicit - obvious and apparent; directly stated I mplicit - not expressed clearly; only suggested; indirectly stated

4. Picture Analysis: Say something about the picture.

5. Recognizing the Explicit Processing the Implicit Explicit information is any idea that is stated. With explicit information, you see the text explained! Since you are looking for explicit information in what is read, the explicit information will be written in the text. There is no need to look for clues. Just read. If the information is written it is explicit. Implicit information is understood but it is not stated. To find implicit information in what is read, you will have to think about what you read. Look for clues as you read. Implicit information is not written.

6. GROUP ACTIVITY 1 EXPLAIN TWO THINGS ABOUT EACH PHOTO (give one direct and indirect) RECORD YOUR OBSERVATIONS : 1. 2. 3.

7. GROUP ACTIVITY 2 Read the paragraph below then list down all the necessary information on your T CHART. All living things are made up of cells. Since humans are alive, we are also made of cells. Cells make our body tissue. Tissue makes our body organs. Organs make our body systems. Cells are the building blocks of our bodies.

8. PRESENTATION MAXIMUM OF THREE MINUTES will be given FOR EACH GROUP TO PRESENT THEIR OUTPUT.

9. LET'S SUM IT UP Explicit information is any idea that is stated. Implicit information is understood but it is not stated .Implicit information is using what is read to make an inference. But what is an inference? How can we differ it from implicit information.

10. Difference between inference and implicit information. Imply If a speaker or writer implies something, they are suggesting it in an indirect way rather than making an explicit statement. As a reader or listener, you are left to draw your own conclusions from what has been said or hinted. Infer When someone infers something, they reach a conclusion or decide that something is true on the basis of the evidence available. If they are listening to or reading another person’s words, they come to a conclusion about what is meant even though the writer or speaker has not stated this explicitly.

11. H e implied that the General had been a traitor. [presented from the writer’s or speaker’s perspective] I inferred from his words that the General had been a traitor. [presented from the listener’s perspective] In the first sentence, the writer or speaker doesn’t actually claim that the General had betrayed his country, but his words (or even his tone) have suggested that this is the case. In the second sentence, whatever was said about the General has enabled the listener to deduce that he was in fact a traitor (without the writer or speaker having risked a charge or libel or slander).

12. EXPLAIN EXPLAIN E X P L A I N E X P L A I N
