Procedure Text
Procedure Text is a text that aims to inform, explain or help the readers about the steps to do
something. That’s why it is usually started with “How to”, “How to make …”, “How to operate …”
or “How to use …”.

This type of text might include formats such as:

● A recipe - how to cook something;

● Directions - how to get from one place to another;

● A how-to guide - for example, how to tie your shoelaces;

● Rules - for example, of a board game;

● Safety procedure - telling you how to stay safe, for example if there's a fire;

● Craft instructions - such as how to make a paper chain;

● Instruction manual - how to use a new toy.

Key points of Procedure Text:

1) ingredients
2) tools
3) time sequencer 🡪 it is used to say when or in what order things happen, for example first,
then, after that, next, finally.
4) commands/imperative words 🡪 word that give order or command (instruction to do
something), such as cook, sprinkle, cover, turn, open.

Example of identifying the time sequencer and commands word in a procedure text.
First, sprinkle a thick coat of powdered sugar on a cookie sheet. Then, combine the granulated
sugar, light corn syrup and water in a heavy saucepan. After that, cook over medium-high heat
until the hard-crack stage. Next, remove from heat. Then, add the peppermint oil or other
flavor and stir well. After that, pour onto the cookie sheet. Next, sprinkle with more powdered
sugar. Finally, cut with a knife as soon as cool enough to handle.

Answer :
first text about how to make mango juice. Mango juice is my favorite juice and how to
make it easy. the second text is about how to make flower pots. I chose the text because
it is interesting and the way it is made is not too complicated.
That is the reason why I chose the two texts.
