Writing a paragraph involves
deep understanding of how
one can achieve well focused
and unified ideas in a
composition.
It is important to use strategies
developing ideas using a particular
pattern. One of these is through
narration.

leads to a conclusion or ending. It tells the readers when,
where and what happened.
• A narrative text contains the plot which gives direction in
making a story.
• contains action verbs and transition words that indicate
time and sequence.
Transitional Devices

orders:
● First, second, etc.
● After, next, then, eventually, soon
● Meanwhile, a short time earlier
● During, at the same time, simultaneously
● Suddenly, instantly, momentarily
● The next day, following, thereafter
● In the end, ultimately
Chronological Ordering
The chronological ordering of events helps to show
the reader how the story moves. Most of the
common transitional words are first, next, then,
after and suddenly. Moreover, it is important to
give specific details in pointing out the direction of
the story.
Example for Narration

that I would find new friends in Masayahin Senior High School. I would never forget
the day I first entered this school, I felt so shy and nervous. I did not know anyone for I
was a new Grade 11 student. When I entered my first class looking for a chair to sit in, a
boy sitting beside the window sill asked me, “Are you new in this school?” and I
answered shyly, “Yes.” Then, he offered me the vacant seat beside him. He was Jasper,
an old student in that school. We got along with each other well in our class. We worked
on our assignments and school projects. , he slept in our house doing our research work.
After a year, we both realized that in many ways we had a lot of similarities in terms of
interests in life. In the end, we became best of friends.
