Vocabulary List
LINEAR TEXTS
– the most common type of text
that need to be read from
beginning to the end.
– They focus on the arrangement
of words, both grammatically and
stylistically. Novels, poems, short
stories, and letters are examples
of linear texts.
Vocabulary List

NON-LINEAR TEXTS
– texts with visual display
demonstrating the relationship
between facts, ideas and concepts.
– The readers do not have to go
through the text in a sequential
manner in order to make sense of
the text.
Let us have an example:
Now, compare the previous
example to this next example:
• Which one is easier
to understand?

• Why do you say so?


• Non-linear texts are
used to present data in
an orderly way and also
to enable the readers
to see large quantities
of information at a
glance.
• They contain valuable
information which,
when written in
sentences or
paragraphs may be
difficult to understand.
Non-Linear Texts are used
to:

• Summarize figures
• Show trends
• Show comparisons
• Show relationships
• Clarify difficult
TYPES OF NON-LINEAR TEXTS
1. GRAPHS - these are the
representation of data represented
by symbols or legends.
KINDS OF GRAPHS
a. A CIRCLE GRAPH is a round-shaped
diagram that is divided into fractions that
look like pieces of a pie, so sometimes it is
called a pie graph. The fractional parts are
different colors and a legend explains the
meaning of the colors.
KINDS OF GRAPHS
b. A BAR GRAPH uses bars to show data.
The bars can be vertical (up and down), or
horizontal (across). The data can be in words
or numbers.
KINDS OF GRAPHS
c. The PICTOGRAPH OR A PICTOGRAM is
one of the most visually appealing types of
graphs and charts that display numerical
information with the use of icons or picture
symbols to represent data sets.
KINDS OF GRAPHS
d. A LINE GRAPH displays data that changes
continuously over time. Each line graph
consists of points that connect data to show a
trend (continuous change). Line graphs have
an x-axis and a y-axis.
TYPES OF NON-LINEAR TEXTS
2. TABLES - are structured for
organizing and displaying
information, with data arranged in
columns and rows. Information is
displayed as text, using words and
numbers, and grid lines may be
present or not.
TYPES OF NON-LINEAR TEXTS
3. INFORMATION MAPS –are ways of
visually representing relationships
between information, ideas and
concepts. They are sometimes called
knowledge map or graphic
organizers.
EXAMPLES OF INFORMATION MAPS
a. VENN DIAGRAM - is great for helping to find
similarities and differences between concepts.
The similarities in a Venn diagram are placed in
the union between two or more circles, while the
differences are placed where the previous circles
don‘t meet.
EXAMPLES OF INFORMATION MAPS
b. ORGANIZATIONAL CHART – is a
diagram that shows the structure of an
organization and the relationships and
relative ranks of its parts and positions. It is
used to show hierarchy.
EXAMPLES OF INFORMATION MAPS
C. CONCEPT MAP – This is used to brainstorm an
idea or topic using related information. Most
concept maps depict ideas as boxes or circles
which are connected with lines or arrows. These
lines are labeled with linking words and phrases
to help explain the connections between
concepts.
TRANSCODING INFORMATION FROM
LINEAR TO NON-LINEAR TEXTS

• Step 1: Read the passage to get a general


idea of the subject matter.
• Step 2: Look at the visual to identify what
information is needed to complete the
chart.
• Step 3: Locate the relevant information in
the passage and transfer it to the most
appropriate type of chart. Use only key
words or phrases – not whole sentences.
• Step 4: If necessary, classify information
into categories and come up with proper
Directions: Analyze the given
illustration and answer the following
questions.
QUESTIONS:
1. What type of graph is illustrated?
2. What is the graph all about?
3. What age range has the highest
percentage?
4. What indication can you give in
this graph?
5. How did the graph help you
understand the illustration?
GROUP ACTIVITY
– You will be divided into three groups.
Each group will be given a paragraph
to read.
– In a one-fourth size manila paper, you
will transcode the information into a
non-linear text within a 15-minute
time limit.
– Each group will present their output
in class and state the reason for
choosing the type of non-linear text
used.
Scoring Guide:

Content – 10 points
Presentation – 10 points
Cooperation – 10 points
Total – 30 points
Assignment:

Compare and contrast the


culture of Koreans and
Filipinos. Use the appropriate
non-linear text for your output.
Thank You for your
participation and
