so that we can see each other.
Second, mute your microphone if you
are not asked to talk. Third, use a
decent background. Fourth, dress
appropriately. Fifth, be participative
and lastly, have fun learning!

e. Review
Before we start in our new lesson,
let us have a recap. Last time, we
discussed about text types and
structures.

What are the two types of text Narrative and expository,

structures? Yes, _____. ma’am.

Correct! What is the difference Narrative tells a story while

between narrative and expository expository texts provide explicit

 Good. How do these text Ma’am, it helps me to

Yes, _____. improving my overall learning of the
concept.

Very good. These text structures

indeed contribute to a more fruitful
learning experience.

I am glad to know that you really

understood our past lesson.

2. MOTIVATION
Let us have an icebreaker. This
activity is entitled, Guess the
Gibberish.

A gibberish is an unintelligible or
meaningless speech or writing.

All you have to do is to guess the

gibberish that I will be presenting.
Remember, it is not about how it is
spelled, it is about how it sounds!

For example:

Are you ready? Let us begin. Yes, ma’am.

 Did you have fun guessing the Yes, ma’am.
gibberish?

That is nice to hear. The words

that you have guessed are some of
the patterns of development in texts,
and that is what we are going to talk
about today.

3. INSTRUCTION
A text may be developed using
different patterns of organization.

There are two general patterns of Ma’am, deductive is from general

developing a paragraph: deductive to specific while inductive is from
and inductive. What is the difference specific to general.
between these two? Yes, _____.

Correct! Take a look at this

example:

illustration, we can easily understand
how these patterns work.

When developing a paragraph, I often utilize deductive because I

what do you often use, deductive or find it more convenient and it suits
inductive? Why? Yes, _____. my style of writing, ma’am.

Good. Here are other ways by

which a paragraph or a text can be
organized:
 Narration
 Description
 Definition
 Exemplification
 Classification
 Cause and Effect
 Comparison and Contrast
 Problem-Solution
 Process
 Persuasion

Let us tackle the patterns one at a

time.

Before discussing the first one, let

us do the activity entitled, Flashback
Fridays.

As you can see on the screen, (The students will narrate their
there are four emojis flashed. Choose experiences.)
one emoji and recall an event where
you felt the emotion being depicted
by your chosen emoji. Narrate it to
the class.
 What you did is an example of the We use this in storytelling,

that, when do we use this pattern?
Yes, _____.

That is right. Can you recall a text Ma’am, those stories both in

Good. Other examples are

biography or autobiography, myth,
recount of an event, and anecdote.

Now, let us read the text below:

Is this an example of narration? Yes, ma’am, because it tells us

Why or why not? Yes, _____. the story of Jonathan Livingston in
detail.

Correct. This pattern pays

attention not just in the story itself, but

one word. Who would like to begin?
Yes, _____.

Nice. Any other? Yes, _____. Ma’am, the word optimistic suits

use lots of adjectives. Why do you mainly used in creating an accurate,
think so? Yes, _____. vivid, or verbal picture of an object,
geographic feature, setting, event,
person, or image, ma’am.

Very good! Take a look at this

sample text:

Good. In the given text, there is a

continuous use of adjectives. That is
how the description pattern works.

the text, ma’am.

text? Yes, _____.

Good. What parts of the text Ma’am, the whole paragraph

define simplicity? Yes, _____. gave definition to the word
simplicity.

That is right. Each sentence

provided varying definition of
simplicity.

In this pattern, we begin by

providing a meaningful word to be
defined, then, defining that word in
the succeeding sentences.

Now, we will be doing the next

activity entitled, Gimme Gimme. You
are going to give me examples of the
topics flashed on the screen.

to support the main idea.

Correct! With that, our fifth pattern We have to do this to keep

is classification. Why do we have to everything in order and to make
classify things accordingly? Yes, things easier for us, ma’am.
_____.

That is right because in this

pattern, we break a large subject into
categories based on consistent and
useful principle of division, thus,
making things easier for us to grasp.

Below is a sample text:

What are the three basic elements Fundamental values,

of ethics codes for journalists? Yes, fundamental prohibitions, and
_____. journalistic principles, ma’am.

Correct! Was it easy for you to Yes, ma’am, because they are

discusses the source of something
produced and its eventual result/s.

Does every cause have an effect? Yes, ma’am, because just like
Why? Yes, _____. what Newton has said, “Every action
has an equal and opposite reaction.”

Very good. Cause and effect

always come together and it is a
great tool in developing a text. Pay
attention to this example:

What cause and effect was Deforestation is the cause and its
mentioned in the text? Yes, _____. effect is that it changes our climate,
ma’am.

Precisely. What if the effect was Ma’am, they will not be able to

examples? Yes, _____.

That is a very nice example! Now,

let us examine the text below:
 Was comparison and contrast Yes, ma’am, because time then

problems? Yes, _____. situation, whereas for hunger,
feeding programs or donations can

That is right. The next pattern is

to the former.

Can you give an example of The spread of fake news, ma’am.

current problems faced by the society To resolve this, people should think

Very good!

4. PRACTICE
It seems that you really
understood our lesson. Let us have
an individual activity.

I want you to read each passage

carefully and analyze its pattern of
development.

1. You can safely swim with

piranhas, but it's important to
know how and when to do it. First,
choose an appropriate time,
preferably at night and during the
rainy season. Avoid piranha-
infested waters during the dry
season, when food supplies are
low and piranhas are more
desperate. Piranhas feed during
the day, so night-time swimming is
much safer. Second, streamline
your movement. Wild or erratic
activity attracts the attention of
piranhas. Swim slowly and
smoothly. Finally, never enter the
water with an open wound or raw
meat. Piranhas attack larger
animals only when they are
wounded. The presence of blood
in the water may tempt the fish to
attack. If you follow these simple
precautions, you will have little to
fear. (Word Press, 2013)

2. O'Leno is a good example of a

state park in Florida. Surrounded
by the tall, shaded woods of a
beautiful hardwood forest, the
Santa Fe River disappears in a
large, slowly swirling, tree-lined
pool. After appearing intermittently
in scattered sinkholes, the river
rises three miles downstream in a
big boil, then continues on to meet
the Suwannee and the sea.
Nearby, stands of cypress mirror
themselves in the still waters,
walls of dense river swamp rise
 before you; sudden sinkholes
open in the woodlands-rich with
cool ferns and mosses. Farther
from the river, expanses of
longleaf pinelands stretch across
rolling hills. In the midst of this
lovely setting, you find 65
campsites, 18 rustic cabins, and a
pavilion for group meetings. A
diving platform marks a good
place to swim in the soft, cool
waters of the Santa Fe, and
canoeing up this dark river is like
traveling backwards in time in the
direction of original Florida.

5. ENRICHMENT
To see if you have fully
understood our discussion, let us
have another activity. This is entitled,

the most. Write a 3-paragraph essay
