D. Presentation of the lesson

Do you have any Idea about to our lesson

today? (Christel raises her hand)

Yes, Christel?
Christel: I think it’s all about Essay
ma’am.
Very good, Christel!

Our topic for today is all about Essay.

The word essay is derived from the French

infinitive essayer which means "to try" or "to
attempt." In English, essay first meant "a trial"
or "an attempt" and it is still an alternative
meaning.

Who among you here experienced writing an

essay?
(Some students raises their hands)
Essay writing brings more benefits than
browsing through those social media platforms
that you have already memorized. It does not
only sharpen your minds and makes you more
creative than putting likes and hitting shares of
your friends’ post. The ability to share
something from your mind is definitely a
plausible act.

Now, what is an informative essay? How does

it differ from the other types of essays?
All students: What is it ma’am?

Informative essay is written as literary essay

piece with the purpose of educating a target
audience or readers regarding a certain topic or
subject. It is intended to present or expose
something while at the same time avoiding
presenting arguments or personal opinions
from the writer.

An informative essay is also called

expository essay in the sense that it also aims
to expose or display an information that is
beneficial to the reader. It does not present bias
judgments nor favorable ideas. Also, it does not
dwell in the concept of convincing readers to do
things that are contrary to their will. It is usually
3-5 pages in length.

There are 3 three parts of an informative essay.

An informative essay contains three parts. The

first part is the introduction. It is used to grab
the attention of the reader and to introduce the
topic. It as well states the thesis statement of
the article. The thesis statement is one
sentence statement that expresses the main
idea of an essay or text. The second part is
the body. It is the bulk of the essay and
contains all of the important facts being
covered that support or provide evidences to
the thesis statement.

The last part is the conclusion. This part

summarizes the essay and encourages the
reader to seek out more information about a
topic.

Are you still with me class?

All students: Yes, ma’am.
All right! Who can give me the three parts of
informative essay?
(Kevin raises his hand)
Yes, Kevin?
Kevin: The three parts of informative
essay ma’am are Introduction, body and
conclusion.
Very good Kevin! I can really say that all of you
are listening to my discussion and let’s
continue.

These are the ways on how to write an

informative essay.

Writing an informative essay is like telling a

blind person the color of the sky or telling a kid
what ice creams are made of. One would just
have to present and expand a topic.

Let’s learn the steps in writing an informative

essay:

1. Think of a topic. The first thing that you have

to do is think of a topic that you want to write
about. It would be good if it is something that
you are most passionate about, so you can
write in great details.

2. Create a format. The most effective format

is using the essential parts of an essay

3. Present your ideas. After choosing the topic,

start writing your ideas.
Present them in a way that you are educating
the readers.
Anyone who can give their insights about
Informative essay?
(Hanzel raises his hand)
Yes, Hanzel?

Hanzel: An informative essay is a

common assignment for school or
college students. The goal is to provide
detailed information to the readers about
the specific topic.
Kindly clap your hands everyone. It is indeed a
great job that you participated very well in the
class and I assume everyone did really
understand the lesson for today.

Any questions? Clarification? You may raise

your hand if you have something to ask from
the topic?
All students: None so far ma’am.
I see none. Very good everyone!
Now let’s proceed for the new activity.
