The sequence of events is told in chronological order. -A narrative paragraph simply tells what happened and established facts. It describes how, when, and where an event or occurrence actually happened. Description - Gives information of what a person, an object, a place or a situation is like. -A descriptive paragraph has concrete and specific details, which are carefully chosen by a writer to paint a picture in mind of the reader. It appeals to the reader’s response Exemplification/ Classification - It groups items into categories to establish a clear distinction between related or similar ideas. - In a classification paragraph, the writer tells the readers how a collection of items can be sorted into categories. It is an activity of sorting items (people, things, ideas) into categories. Comparison and Contrast A comparison tells how two things are similar. A contrast tells how they are different. -A cause is what makes a particular thing happen. Cause and Effect -An effect is what results from a particular situation, activity, or behavior.

It wants you to consider both sides of an issue, but it reveals a bias in favor of one side over another. Definition -Explains a concept, term, or subject. Its main purpose is to tell what something is. -Definition is the main constituent of any dictionary. In developing a paragraph by definition, we should take account of these things: the term to be defined the class to which the term belongs the characteristics that distinguish the terms from the other members of its class Description - Gives information of what a person, an object, a place or a situation is like. -A descriptive paragraph has concrete and specific details, which are carefully chosen by a writer to paint a picture in mind of the reader.

It describes how, when, and where an event or occurrence actually happened. BAD DAY My day was a disaster. First, it had snowed during the night, which meant I had to shovel before I could leave for work. I was mad that I hadn't gotten up earlier. Then I had trouble starting my car, and to make matters worse, my daughter wasn't feeling well and said she didn't think she should go to school. When I eventually did arrive at work, I was twenty minutes late. Soon I found out my assistant had forgotten to make copies of a report I needed at nine o'clock. I quickly had to make another plan. By five o'clock, I was looking forward to getting my paycheck. Foolish woman! When I went to pick it up, the office assistant told me that something had gone wrong with the computers. I would not be able to get my check until Tuesday. Disappointed, I walked down the hill to the parking lot. There I met my final defeat. In my hurry to park the car in the morning, I had left my parking lights on. Now my battery was dead. Even an optimist like me had the right to be discouraged! Example:

Your paragraph/s is/are characterized by words that show action and words that show sequence. Descriptive details in a narrative paragraph are essential to a good story. Details help readers to connect to the world the author envisions. Choose the right words for their meaning and use specific expressions.

It appeals to the reader’s response Saltwater marsh, some may say, can eat a cement block for breakfast, and not even the sheriff’s bunker-style office could keep it at bay. Watermarks, outlined with salt crystals, waved across the lower walls, and black mildew spread like blood vessels toward the ceiling. Tiny dark mushrooms hunkered in the corners. The sheriff pulled a bottle from the bottom drawer of his desk and poured them both a double in coffee mugs. They sipped until the sun, as golden and syrupy as the bourbon, slipped into the sea.

It was the magnet that drew our family together quite warmly. Cut from the sturdiest oak, the table was tough, smooth, and long enough for my mother, my two sisters, and me to work or play on at the same time. Our favorite light blue ceramic tile, stationed in the right corner, was the table’s sole defense against the ravages of everything from a steaming teapot to the latest red-hot gadget from the Sears catalogue.

A single white placemat has been set to the left of the tile, with a knife and fork on either side of a white dinner plate, around nine inches in diameter. On the plate are two thick pieces of steak.

Exemplification / Classification Exemplification is the most common and effective pattern to explain an idea or point. In developing this kind of paragraph, the writer develops a general statement, with one or more examples to support it. Many of the most effective essays use examples extensively. Exemplification is used in every kind of writing situation to explain and clarify, to add interest and to persuade.

Exemplification / Classification Here are some transitional expressions in writing effective exemplification paragraphs: - for instance - namely - to clarify - to illustrate - for example - In short - as an example EXEMPLIFICATION PARAGRAPH EXAMPLE While the internet offers so many benefits to man, it also has its downsides. One of these is phishing, which refers to the act of obtaining personal information, such as passwords and credit card details. Through online means. In other words, phishing is a form of cybercrime. An an example , let us consider the case of Mr. X. He received an email stating that his Gmail account has been compromised and that he needed to click a link to update personal information. If Mr. X clicks on the link, his personal information will be illegally acquired by cybercriminals.

The first type is known as a convergent boundary. Also known as destructive plate boundary, this type of earthquake happens when two tectonic plates move toward one another and collide. The second type of earthquake is called the divergent boundary. During this type of earthquake, two plates are forced to move away from each other resulting in a rift zone. The last type is called the conservative plate boundary or transform fault. During this type of earthquake, two tectonic plates slide past one another.

The presence of the hazardous substances brought about by these three major types of pollution: land, air and water gravely affects our health. For instance, a person may acquire skin problems and other deformities from the toxic wastes present in the land that we live in such as garbage, pesticides, heavy metals and other chemicals. Air pollution caused by toxic gases, solid and liquid particles or aerosols, and other hazardous air pollutants adversely contaminate the air that we breathe. Long-term exposure to air pollutants has been linked with diseases of the heart and lungs, cancers and other health problems. Lastly, water pollution observed in our primary water sources like oceans, rivers, and lakes is caused by the presence of industrial wastes, sewage and waste waters, chemical fertilizers and pesticides to be specific. Infectious diseases can be acquired through contaminated water and can cause cholera, jaundice, liver damage and stomach illness in people.

During this type of earthquake, two plates are forced to move away from each other resulting in a rift zone. The last type is called the conservative plate boundary or transform fault. During this type of earthquake, two tectonic plates slide past one another.

Laughter is powerful and can help people in many different ways. It has the power to cure something as little as a bad day or to heal the wounds of a terminally ill person. Laughing has helped create the smile which is the universal sign of well-being. Generally, individuals who do not laugh live miserably and have unhappy lives. Dr. Robert Holden found out that smiling and laughing releases endorphins in the brain which gives people a overall happy well-being. Using comedy, many doctors have stimulated the healing process in manic depressants and fatally ill patients giving them hope and ambition. In many clinics laughter is being used in replacing anti- depressants and reduces the need for pain killers. (Dr. Gael Crystal). Take comedians for example, they usually live long and happy lives. Putting a smile on faces and laughs in souls is what makes life complete. Laughter helps heal people and brightens spirits for a better and healthier life. Laughing is a sign of joy and hope and keeps people normal and the world happy. Using the techniques of laughter and happiness is the best medicine known to man. Laughter is the universal sign of well-being and happiness within health. Laughing brightens the spirit and heals the mind and body of people who allow it to overcome them. Therefore, try a smile and laugh on for size and live a longer happier life with loved ones.

Process analysis explains how to do something (play a computer game, change a tire), how to make something (a butterfly sanctuary), or how something happens (how the modern firehouse has evolved). Specifically, it explains a sequence of actions with a specified result (the process) by dividing it into its component steps (the analysis). Basically, it answers the question how something happens

For both types of process analysis, however, it is often useful to create phases or stages, which, in turn, can be divided into steps. Both phases/stages and steps should be presented in proper sequence. What are the two main type of process analysis? How IS a PROCESS ANALYSIS USUALLY ORGANIZED?
