1. QUARTER 2, Week 1: Explain visual-verbal relationships illustrated in tables, graphs, and information maps found in expository texts. Prepared by: Gilda F. Patlingrao

2. LESSON OBJECTIVES: 1. Define what expository, linear and nonlinear texts; 2. Identify expository and its type, linear and nonlinear texts; 3. Complete the given activities in a specified time.

3. Philippine beaches a magnet for first wave of returning Chinese travelers By   TTG Asia Posted on 13 May, 2020 14:51 The first wave of Chinese travelers to hit the Philippines’ shores once travel restrictions are lifted are likely to head to beach destinations such as Boracay, Bohol and Cebu, according to a recent study by C9 Hotel works and Delivering Asia Communications. Social distancing protocols enforced at these locations, which are likely to stick around post-pandemic, have increased the appeal of these already popular destinations, concluded the two companies.

4. Conducted in the first week of May among 1,150 respondents from five first-tier cities in China, the study drew out the preferences of the 700 or so respondents (61 percent) who said they were looking to travel to the Philippines this year and beyond. Of the shortlisted travelers, about 630 were planning to travel to the country in 2020. When asked which destination in the Philippines they would be most likely to visit, most shortlisted respondents (46 per cent) indicated Boracay, followed by Manila (23 percent), Bohol (21 percent) and Cebu (6 percent).

5. Now let us look at these figures below.

6. Let’s answer these questions: What is this figure all about? Can we read it from left to right or right to left? What do these figures tell us?

7. Think about it…. If we try to compare the first article and the second figure, how do they differ in presenting the information or the subject to the readers? Do they have any difference?

8. What Is Expository Text? Expository writing is a mode of writing in which the purpose of the author is to inform, explain, describe, or define his or her subject to the reader. Examples of expository texts are textbooks, encyclopedias, scientific books/journals, atlases, directions, guides, biographies, newspapers . (https://bit.ly/32Z97Jl)

9. There are five types of Expository Texts: 1. Sequence or Time Order This type of expository text is often used to present events such as the French and Indian War (in history class) or cell division (in biology class).

10. 2. Listing (or description) It is used to explain the features of an object or event. Biology textbooks list the features of reptiles, giving their body temperature, reproductive habits, eating habits, etc.

11. 3. Compare and Contrast This involves discussing similarities and differences. A Social Studies book might compare the Government of the United States and the Government of Great Britain.

12. 4. Cause-Effect A cause-effect pattern outlines reasons for events. The author describes an event (such as the American Revolutionary War) and explains what caused the event and the effects that followed from it.

13. 5. Problem-Solution A Problem-Solution pattern discusses a problem and then suggest a possible solution to the problem stated.

14. What is Linear Text? Linear text refers to traditional text that needs to be read from beginning to the end. This type of text has an order or sequence ; it’s typically the author of the text who decides the order of the text, or its reading path. Novels, poems, short stories, letters, educational texts , all those texts we read from the beginning to the end, are linear texts. (https://bit.ly/3jKJstP)

15. What is Nonlinear Text? Nonlinear text is the opposite of linear text. As its name suggests, it is nonlinear and non-sequential. The readers do not have to go through the text in a sequential manner in order to make sense of the text. This type of text has many reading paths since it’s the readers who decide the sequence of reading, not the author of the text. Some examples include flowcharts, charts, and graphs ( ex: pie chart, bar graphs ), graphical organizers such as knowledge maps and story maps. (https://bit.ly/3jKJstP)

16. Pie Chart/Graph It is useful in showing the proportional distribution of items that make up one whole amount. It looks like a pie that is divided into different parts.

17. Pie Chart/Graph 22% 33% 28% 11% 6%

18. Bar Graph A bar graph can be defined as a chart or a graphical representation of data, quantities or numbers using bars or strips. (https://bit.ly/3jL290G) Bar graphs are used to compare and contrast numbers, frequencies or other measures of distinct categories of data. (https://bit.ly/3jL290G)
