D. Discussing new concepts and Discuss the 5 common key structures of informational/ factual text, its
practicing new skills #1 definition and examples. (Power Point Presentation)

1. Description – this type of text structure features a detailed

description of something to give the reader a mental picture.
Example: The Philippine eagle, also known as the monkey-eating
eagle, is an endangered species. It has brown and white –colored
plumage, a shaggy crest and generally measures 86 to 102 cm in
length and weighs 4.04 to 8.0 kilograms. It is considered the largest
of the extant eagles in the world in terms of length and wing surface.

2. Cause and Effect – This structure presents the causal relationship

between a specific event, idea, or concept that follow.
Example: Jocelyn likes to eat too much candy and chocolates and
never brush her teeth after eating. That is why, she had a tooth
decay.

3. Comparison and Contrast – This type of text examines the

similarities and differences between two or more people, events,
concepts, ideas, etc.
Example: Trees and shrubs are both plants. Trees are and have
trunks more than two inches in diameter at 4.5 feet about the ground.
Shrubs are smaller than trees and often have many small wooden
bark covered stems rising from the base.

4. Chronology/ Procedural/ Sequence – This text structure gives

readers a chronological description of events or a list of steps in a

When the rice is cooked, the rice cooker automatically turns off.
 5. Problem and Solution – This type of structure sets up a problem or
problems, explains the solution, and then discusses the effects of
solution.
Example: The number of Covid 19 infection in the country is

may not be able to accommodate more covid19 patients in the future.
To prevent worst case scenario, the government must impose strict
compliance of health protocols such as frequent washing of hands ,
using face mask especially in public places, observing social
distancing and regulating mass gatherings such as parties, weddings
and similar activities.
