I – Introduction

Noting detail is a brief record of something that one has written down on
paper. It is an important reading comprehension skill that involves picking out,
from a text, a particular piece or pieces of information to achieve a given purpose
such as answering a question in a test. It is a comprehension skill which is
concerned directly in remembering specific facts (Idul, 2016).
How to Note Details
 When noting details always read the story with full understanding
and internalize the lines printed.
 Whenever you are reading, you should be constantly noting the
important details.
 When you are reading a text, be aware of the clues or important
details that help you understand what you are reading. This will
help you answer any questions about the selection when you
are done (Barlis, 2020).

Read the short story and note important details

“What’s your news, Norma?” asked Mother.
“Look at my basket,” said Norma excitedly. “I bought many things today:
meat, sugar, fish, vegetables and fruits.”
“See, I still have a little change left.”
“But why?” asked Mother, puzzled (Logue C., 2007).

Sequencing is one of many skills that contributes to students' ability to

comprehend what they read. Sequencing refers to the identification of the components
of a story — the beginning, middle, and end — and also to the ability to retell the
events within a given text in the order in which they occurred. The ability to sequence
events in a text is a key comprehension strategy, especially for narrative texts.
Sequence structures help students of varying abilities organize information and ideas
efficiently (literacyideas.com/, n.d.).
How to Sequence Events
 Look for words that tell when something happens.
Order Words: first, second, before, now, later, still, dates, days of the
week, months
 As you read, use these signal words to put story events in order
(literacyideas.com/, n.d.).
Read the selection carefully. Sequence the events listed below by numbering
them 1-5.
The Best Treasure
A certain farmer had several sons. He wanted them to become farmers. When
the farmer was dying, he called his sons and said to them. “Boys, I am about to leave
you. I have hidden my wealth in the vineyard. Search for it, it is all I have to give you.
His sons thought that their father had buried a treasure in the vineyard. When the father
died, the sons dug in the vineyard, to search for the treasure. They did not find the
hidden wealth, but they had fine crops of grapes (Logue C., 2007).
________a. His sons thought that their father had buried a treasure in the vineyard.
________b. He wanted them to become good farmers.
________c. They did not find the hidden wealth, but they had fine crops of grapes.
________d. A certain farmer had several sons.
