Problem and Solution Worksheet


Medical Alert
Overview: Problem and solution is one type of text structure. When a
writer is using the problem and solution text structure, he or she may
explain how to address or prepare for a concern.
Directions: read each paragraph. A graphic organizer is used to show the
structure of the text. Fill in the missing boxes with the appropriate info.

1. Having a cold is no fun.


Coughing makes it hard to
fall asleep. A sore throat is
painful. Try some tea with
honey in it. The honey will
soothe your throat. There
may be no cure for the
common cold. You can treat
the symptoms though.

2. A sprain is a tear in a
muscle. Sprains happen
when a muscle is twisted or
overstretched. They can be
painful. If you sprain a
muscle, you should ice it
immediately. Putting ice on
a sprain will reduce swelling
and pain. It may help stop
internal bleeding too.

3. Nobody wants to be stung


by a bee. Bee stings are
itchy and painful. But what
if the bee stings you
anyway? One thing that you
can do is put vinegar on it.
The acid in the vinegar may
reduce the pain and swelling
from the sting.
