The "Common Types" slide features a grid of five informational text structures, each with an icon, heading, and description. They include Definition (explains terms), Process (describes steps), Cause & Effect (reasons and outcomes), Comparison & Contrast (similarities/differences), and Problem & Solution (issues and resolutions).

Common Types

{ "features": [ { "icon": "📖", "heading": "Definition", "description": "Explains the meaning of a term or concept clearly." }, { "icon": "🔄", "heading": "Process", "description": "Describes steps to complete a task or procedure." }, { "icon": "🔗", "heading": "Cause & Effect", "description": "Identifies reasons and resulting outcomes of events." }, { "icon": "⚖️", "heading": "Comparison & Contrast", "description": "Highlights similarities and differences between subjects." }, { "icon": "🛠️", "heading": "Problem & Solution", "description": "Presents issues and offers ways to resolve them." } ] }

The slide "Structure of Expository Text" outlines the three-part structure of expository writing. It features an introduction with a hook and thesis, a body with supporting details and evidence, and a conclusion summarizing and restating the main idea.

Structure of Expository Text

This slide, titled "Example Passage: The Water Cycle," presents a quote from Dr. Elena Rivera, DepEd Science Specialist. The quote describes the water cycle starting with evaporation of water into vapor, which rises, condenses into clouds, and returns as rain or snow.

Example Passage: The Water Cycle

> The water cycle starts with evaporation, where sunlight heats water from oceans, lakes, and rivers, turning it into vapor. This vapor rises, cools, condenses into clouds, and returns as precipitation—rain or snow—replenishing Earth's water sources.

This "Sample Output" quote slide features an explanation of photosynthesis, where green plants use sunlight, water, soil, and carbon dioxide to produce glucose and oxygen via chlorophyll in their leaves. The quote is attributed to Maria Santos, a Grade 7 student.

Sample Output

> Photosynthesis is how green plants make their own food. They use sunlight, water from the soil, and carbon dioxide from the air. In their leaves, chlorophyll captures sunlight to convert these into glucose and oxygen, which plants use for energy.
