    Definition of Procedure Text
    There are three definitions about procedure text:
    (1) Texts that explain how something works or how to use instruction / operation manuals e.g. how to
    use the video, the computer, the tape recorder, the photocopier, the fax.
    (2) Texts that instruct how to do a particular activity e.g. recipes, rules for games, science
    experiments, road safety rules.
    (3) Texts that deal with human behavior, e.g how to live happily, how to succeed (tips)

    Generic Structure of Procedure Text


    A procedure text usually has three sections. There is an introductory statement or title that gives
    the aim or goal of the procedure, followed by a list of materials that will be needed to complete the
    procedure. The final section is a sequence of steps, in the order they need to be completed, to achieve
    this goal. Some procedures have other stages such as explaining why each step is necessary.

    1. An introductory statement giving the aim or goal

     This may be the title of the text.


     This may be an introductory paragraph.

    2.  Materials needed for completing the procedure

     This may be a list.


     This may be a paragraph.
     This step may be left out in some procedures.

    3  A sequence of steps in the correct order

     Numbers can be used to show: first, second, third and so on.


     The order is usually important.
     Words such as now, next and  after this can be used.
     The steps usually begin with a command such as add, stir,  or  push.
    1. Goal / Aim
    This component addresses the what of the piece. It will refer to what is to be done or made. Very often
    too this will provide for the title of the text itself. Often this will be stated in the form of a ‘how to’
    sentence or the name of the thing to be made itself. With more technical procedural texts, titles may be
    more generic and standardized, such as simply Operating Manual or User’s Guide or in its most basic
    form, Instructions.
    2. Resources
    Usually done in the form of a list, this component may also be titled Materials, Equipment,
    Ingredients, Items Needed etc and is self-explanatory. This component comprises a list of things
    required to complete the procedure outlined in the text. For a recipe, this will obviously include things
    like ingredients, but may also include things like the appliances and tools required to follow that
    recipe to completion. For flat-pack furniture, for example, items like a screwdriver, spanner, the glue
    will form this section. Science experiment procedural texts will include apparatus such as Bunsen
    burners, test tubes, litmus paper etc. Regardless of the specific purpose of the text in question, the
    resources listed in this section will usually be presented in the order they will be used, as far as this is
    relevant or possible.

    3. Steps
    This is the heart of the procedural text as it outlines step-by-step the methodology to follow in the
    procedure itself. Again, the title of this section of the procedural text may vary depending on the specific
    type of writing it is. Longer user guides and instructional manuals will have a complex and extensive list
    of steps to follow that will employ subtitles and subsections to explain micro-processes within the wider
    procedure being described. Simpler texts, such as recipes, will be much less complex in structure. It is
    important to encourage students to think very logically about the process they are attempting to outline
    in their writing.

    4. Conclusion
    The conclusion of a procedural text offers guidance to the reader on how they can evaluate the success
    of the procedure that has been followed. This may take the form of, for example, a description of the
    completed meal for a recipe text or a description of the assembled furniture in a flat-pack instruction
    guide. Depending on the type of text in question, often illustrations can be used to reinforce what a
    successfully followed procedure will look like.

    Purpose of Procedure Text


    – To explain/tell (the reader) how to make/operate/do something through a sequence of actions or
    steps.
    – To explain steps/instruction to make/operate/do something

    Language Feature of Procedure Text


    – Use adverbial of sequence / Using temporal conjunction (e.g: first, second, third, the last)
    – Use command / imperative sentence (e.g : put the noodles on the . . ., cut the onion. . ., wash the
    tomatoes. . . )
    – Using adverbials (Adverbs) to express detail the time, place, manner accurate, for example, for five
    minutes, 2 hours, etc.
    – Using action verbs, e.g : make, take, boil, cook
    – Using Simple Present Tense
