KWL Chart

The KWL Chart is an instructional reading strategy that is used to guide students through a lesson. Students begin by
writing down their prior knowledge about the topics in the first column. In the second column, the students will list some
questions that they want to know about the topics. During or after learning about the topics, the students will answer
their own generated questions in the third column that represents the things they have learned.

What I KNOW What I WANT to Know What I LEARNED

I know that being a critical reader
is surely a great help in becoming
a better writer. This is the part
wherein you start to expose
yourself in the writing processes
for you have better understood the
text you are reading. You start to
discover ways you are more
comfortable to work with when
writing. With this, you
practicing, at the same time,
improving your skills in writing.
I have questions in my mind like:
1. What is an outline?
2. What is the purpose of writing
an outline?
3. What are the kinds of outline
and how are they different from
are each other?
4. How do you write an outline?
This lesson has brought a new
knowledge to me. I learned that
an outline is a way of formally
arranging and developing ideas.
The purpose of an outline is to
help you organize your ideas to
see if and how the ideas connect
to each other. Moreover, outline
has two kinds namely reading
outline and writing outline. The
difference between the two is that
reading outline is used to get the
main ideas of the text that is
already written while the writing
outline is a skeletal version of an
essay. There are steps to be
followed in crafting an outline.
These are the following:
1. Identify your topic
2. Figure out your main points
3. Arrange your main points
 4. Create sub-points
5. Evaluate your outline

B. Explore

The word “outline” can be intimidating, especially to students. But if you know that a writer uses an
outline for an essay the way an architect uses a blueprint for a building, then you will have an easier
time understanding its purpose in the writing process.
To better familiarize you with the concept of an outline, can you think of other things you can compare
an outline's purpose to, like in the case of the architect's blueprint? Write your answers beside the lines
in the image.
