IV. LESSON PROPER
A. Activity

infer from the previous activity. Then, the teacher will introduce the lesson
for the day: Topic Outlines.

C. Abstraction

An outline is an important tool in writing. It is the general plan of a

text that shows the order of information and what each paragraph
discusses. An outline states the most important ideas and presents the
supporting details in an organized form.
One type of outline is the topic outline, which uses words and
phrases for headings and subheadings.

General steps on how to make a topic outline:

1. Identify the main idea/thesis statement of the whole text. It is
usually seen in the first paragraph or the introduction.
2. Break and shred the thesis statement into topic sentences.
These topic sentences are the major details (main headings)
of the text’s body.
3. Identify the supporting details (subheadings) in each major
detail. Add supporting details (second-level subheadings) to
subheadings, and so on.
4. Review and adjust the outline.

Guidelines for making an outline:

● Mark the main headings with Roman numerals (e.g., I, II, III
and so on).
● Indent the subheadings under the main headings and mark
them with capital letters (e.g., A, B, C and so on).
 ● Indent the second-level subheadings underneath the
subheadings and mark them with Arabic numerals (e.g., 1, 2,
3 and so on).
● Indent the third-level subheadings underneath the
second-level subheadings and mark them with small letters
(e.g., a, b, c and so on).
● Each heading should have at least two subheadings or none
at all. For example, every A needs a B, and every 1 needs a
2.
