LESSON 1: Make Connections between Texts

(PARTICULAR SOCIAL ISSUES, CONCERNS, OR
DISPOSITIONS IN REAL LIFE
 Take Note!

C
Making a connection is an important skill,
which allows us to find relevant meaning
and information between texts as well as
personal experiences. This means you need
to find similar information between texts
or identifying related information between
texts. If you can make connections between
texts, you can then compare information
and meaning from different texts.

 TWO TYPES OF TEXT
JOURNALISTIC AND LITERARY TEXTS
 Journalistic texts are generally written to inform by providing
facts about a topic. You can usually find them in a newspaper in
the form of news articles, feature articles, and editorials. Since
they are based on facts, they are considered nonfiction.

 Literary texts are usually written for entertainment. They may
come in a form of a story or poem. These stories may be based
on reality or in make- believe. These types of texts are generally
focused on the artistic side of writing.

 In making connections between texts to
particular social issues, you need to follow
these simple tips:

F
1. Read the texts thoroughly and be sure to
understand the messages of the texts
2. Determine what the text is about.
3. Identify particular concerns (particular
concerns are problems or issues which are
related to the main idea of the text)
4. Relate the issues to your own experiences.
5. Confirm if the issue is reflected in both texts.
6. Determine if both texts have the same
opinion about the idea.
7. State your own opinion about the idea
presented by both texts (What can you say
about the opinion of the texts regarding the
idea?)
