1. Drills/Activity: (Individual Activity)

Students will read a paragraph which is illustrated with a visual tool in the form of a
table.
Directions: Study carefully the two models below. Distinguish its similarities and differences.
Model 1
MICROBIAL DISEASES
Rabbits are born hairless, blind and helpless. They open their eyes about a week later. After ten to twelve days they
can care for themselves. They grow rapidly if they are given proper food and care.

The following are the common diseases encountered by rabbits. First is the Pasturelosis. It is the most common
bacterial disease of the rabbit characterized by Pasturella Multoicida, a mucus infection or Mucopurulent nasal discharge. The
symptoms are sneezing and rattling noise in breathing. Antibiotic is a helpful treatment but the disease may recur when
treatment is stopped before sufficient dosage has been administered.

The second microbial disease is Pneumonia.Source: Progress

rabbits and causedand

Pasturella
Multocida is an extension of snuffles to the lungs. It may occur even without the involvement of the upper respiratory tract.
Drafty, damp and unsanitary hutches are predisposing factors. Labored breathing, loss of appetite and elevated temperature are
some of the signs. Broad spectrum antibiotics must be used for the treatment.

And third one is Eneritis Complex. This disease is the combination of mucoid enteritis and hemorrhagic enteritis.
Clinical signs are loss of appetite, littleness, dull-eyes, rough hair coat, and profuse mucus dropping. The preventive measures
are good management, sanitation, proper feeding, and control of coccidiosis and isolation of affected animals.

C. Lesson Proper

Expository texts are designed to inform, explain and present facts and information to
readers. A paragraph filled with details is often difficult to understand. Thus, expository writers
frequently use visual tools to present important points. These tools make the
information/concepts presented clearer and easier to understand than if it is written out.
Visual tools broaden comprehension, so it is essential that you must know how to read
and interpret them and explain their relationship between the written words (verbal).
Let’s take a look at the different visual tools commonly used in presenting expository
along with the strategies to determine their relationships.

A. TABLES. Tables are visual tools that can help students organize information into different
categories. They are characterized as a systematic arrangement or grouping of related
numbers or words in rows and columns. This tool also allows to compare and contrast
information based on various criteria.
STATISTICAL INFORMATION OF THE PROVINCES IN CENTRAL VISAYAS
NAME POPULATION POPULATION ANNUAL POPULATION AREA (2007)
(2015) (2010) GROWTH RATE In km2
(2015-2010)

2020. PhilAtlas. Accessed August 18, 2020. https://www.philatlas.com/visayas/r07.html.

Information in the title and headings (labels) tell what the columns and rows represent.
The table in the example describes the provinces as to their population (2015 and 2010),
annual population growth and their land area. The table shows that among the provinces in
Central Visayas, Bohol ranked third as to the population both in 2010 and 2015 as well as in
the land area.

B. GRAPHS. Graphs are pictures designed to express words, particularly the connection
between two or more quantities. Graphs make information easier to see. This is especially true
when two or more sets of numbers are related in some way.
 1. LINE GRAPH. A line graph is a common type of graph which displays the information
as a series of data points connected by the line segments to show trends. Line graph is
good for plotting data that has peaks (ups) and valleys (downs) or data collected in a
short time period.

to illustrate proportion. This chart shows the breakdown of items in a set as
percentages by presenting them as slices of a pie. Always remember when dealing with
pie chart, all the slices must equal to 100%. In the pie chart shown here, the entire pie
represents the different types of movies watched by selected forty (40) moviegoers.
Each slice shows the specific percentage of their preferred movie types.

C. INFORMATION MAPS. Information

5 maps are the general terms for ways of visually
representing relationship between information, ideas and concepts.
 1. VENN DIAGRAM. Venn diagram is a type of information map used to
compare concepts and ideas. It is composed of two or more overlapping circles to

c. Main Idea and Detail Chart

There are many kinds of venomous snakes. Rattlesnakes, for examples, are found
throughout the Western Hemisphere. They range from one to eight feet in length. The
likelihood of a human dying as a result of rattler’s bite is low. Cottonmouths are found from
Virginia to Texas. Their bite is very dangerous and maybe fatal. They can reach up to five feet
in length. The coral snake is smaller, ranging from one half to four feet in length. The coral
snake, which may be found from the Southern United States to South America, is very
deadly. King cobras, found throughout southern Asia, may reach a length of sixteen feet. The
king cobra’s bite is not usually deadly. The Cape cobra, however, is very deadly. This snake
reaches up to seven feet in length and is found in southern Africa. One of the largest and
deadliest snakes is the black mamba. This snake reaches up to fourteen feet in length and is
found in southern and central Africa. Almost all of the people who are attacked by black
mamba die if they do not receive medical treatment immediately after being bitten.
