CHAPTER 3 PART 1 : Procedure text
Procedure text is a type of text which contains the method or steps to do something.
We usually find this type of text on food packaging, drugs, electronic items, food recipes, and others.
The purpose of the procedure text is to explain the steps in carrying out a particular activity.
Procedure text structure
In making a procedure text, there are structures that need to be considered, namely:
Goal/aim (goal)
Generally in procedure text, the purpose is already stated in the title or headline. For example: How to Make Simple Fried Rice.
Materials
We can use words such as materials, tools, or ingredients when mentioning what is needed to perform a procedure.
If the procedure text is about food or drink, we usually call it "ingredients".
Meanwhile, when it comes to equipment or the like, we can use "tools and materials". For example:
Ingredients: garlics, shallots, chilies, eggs / Ingredients: garlic, shallots, eggs
Tools and materials: scissor, ruler, colored paper, glue
Steps / methods
This section describes the steps or ways or actions to achieve the results or objectives. We can use sequences such as first, second, third, and so on.
Or you can also write the numbers in order. We can also use connectors like then, after, or next and others.
In this section, use imperative sentences at each step. Example:
1. Use the ruler to make a triangle on colored paper.
2. Cut the colored paper along the line.
