such as the following, first, next, and so on.

As a grade five pupil, Emmanuel was already self-motivated and self-directed in

helping his parents on weekends. First, he would assist his mother in some
household chores and some errands. Next, he would go with his father in the farm
and would pasture the carabao to the fields. Then, he would gather fire woods to be
carried back home. Finally, he would burn the midnight oil working on his
assignments and studying his lessons.

Some paragraphs or texts are developed through logical order- time or

chronological order and a sequence-of-importance. In time or chronological order,
the sentences are arranged in the order in which the events they described
happened. This Time-order text type is called recount. Transition/signal words that
may be used in these texts include first, next, then, finally to name a few.

Directions. Read carefully the paragraph below and answer the given
questions after.
Geology simply means earth Science. It deals with the study of the origin, history
composition, and the structure of the Earth.
In 1795, Scottish geologist James Hutton suggested that Earth was continually
changing as a result of erosion and mountain-building forces. In 1815, English
engineer William Smith drew a map showing the layers of different ages. Geologists
plotted a chart that shows in rock layers and fossils overtime. In the 1900s, they
proved that Earth’s landforms had originally been one large continent named
Pangea. Later Pangea broke up into smaller continents that drifted very slowly
apart. This movement is called continental shift.
