Let us have another activity.

Activity: Where am I belong?

This activity is called where am I belong?! ______.
Group the pictures according to their similarities
Read the direction.
and label them as Group A and group B.

Group A

Group B

Okay! Very Good class, so why does the poem, the

harry potter novel, the biography of William
Page3|6
Shakespeare and the short story belongs to group A? Because those are all read from beginning to end

That’s right, those pictures are all considered as

Linear text. Read the definitions of linear texts ____ Linear texts are written in the traditional way
without the aid of graph.
Next ____?
it can read from left to right or beginning to end.
And the last, read _____?
This type of texts has an order or a sequence.
In Linear texts class it’s typically the author who
decides on the order of the text or it’s reading path.

Can you give some example of linear text other than

what’s on the picture?
Letters ma’am
Very good! Another one?
News article ma’am
Nice! Generally class those printed texts on paper is
considered as Linear text.

So why does the flowchart, the veen diagram, the bar

graph, and the histogram belongs to group B?

That is correct! Those on the pictures are example of
Non- linear text.

So what do you think is non- Linear texts?

Non- linear text is represented using different

not read it sequentially. The reader decides on the way figures.
how to read the text. And it has multiple reading
paths.

By the way class, the reading path is the way the

readers take through a text.

Can you give other example of non- linear texts?

That’s right! Another one? Map ma’am

Very good! Pie chart ma’am

I see that linear texts and non- linear text is already

clear to you. Let’s try another activity.

ACTIVITY: RAISE YOUR FLAGS!

This activity is what we call “Let’s vault in! (the teacher will group the students into 2. Each
group will receive a text in linear form. )
________read the direction.
Study the given text. Transcode the information
from linear text to non- linear text. Present your
work to the class.
Group 1
Group 1

Group 2

Nice! Both groups do their task right! Give yourselves

a round of applause.

Generalization

Again. What is the difference between linear text and

non- linear text? The key difference between linear and nonlinear
text is their reading path. In a linear text, a reader
can make sense of the text by reading
sequentially, from beginning to the end. However,
in a nonlinear text, the reading path is nonlinear
and non-sequential; thus, the reader can choose
Very good! In linear text, the reader can understand his own reading path
the texts by reading it from beginning to the end,
while the non- linear texts, the readers do not read it
sequentially.

Do you think students need to know how to transcode

linear text to non- linear text and vice- versa? Why? It helps children organize their thoughts when
