What I Need to
Know
Have you tried having frustration comprehending texts? The purpose of reading is comprehension. If comprehension
is not achieved, reading will just become frustrating and pointless. How well you develop your ability to comprehend on what
you read has great effect on your life.
The most essential learning competency covered in this module is explaining the visual-verbal relationships
illustrated in tables, graphs, and information maps found in expository, EN8SS-IIe-1.2.

Objectives:
As a learner of this module, you are expected to:
1. interpret tables, graphs and information maps as visual tools;
2. explain the visual-verbal relationships of the given expository illustrated in the visual tools;
3. write the importance of the visual-verbal relationships; and,
4. create expository using appropriate visual tools.

sentences.

MODULE 2
 Expository texts are designed to inform, explain and present facts and information to readers. A paragraph filled
with details is often difficult to understand. Thus, expository writers frequently use visual tools to present important points.
These tools make the information/concepts presented clearer and easier to understand.

Visual tools broaden comprehension, so it is essential that you must know how to read and interpret them and
explain their relationship between the written words.

Let’s take a look at the different visual tools commonly used in presenting expository along with the strategies to
determine their relationships.

A. TABLES. Tables are visual tools that can help students organize information into different categories. They are
characterized as a systematic arrangement or grouping of related numbers or words in rows and columns. This tool also
allows to compare and contrast information based on various criteria.

[Link]. Graphs are pictures designed to express words, particularly the connection between two or more quantities.
Graphs make information easier to see. This is especially true when two or more sets of numbers are related in some
way.

1. LINE GRAPH. A line graph is a common type of graph which displays the information as a series of data points
connected by the line segments to show trends. Line graph is good for plotting data that has peaks (ups) and valleys
(downs) or data collected in a short time period.

Illustration 3: Ill

2. BAR GRAPH. Collected data which often takes form of a collection of numbers can be visually displayed into a bar
graph. Bar graph presents data with rectangular bars which differ in sizes. It may run horizontally or vertically. The
important thing to keep in mind is the longer the bar, the greater its value. It better reflects a comparison of data with
larger differences among groups.

3. PIE GRAPH. Pie graph is a circular visual tool which is divided into slices or portions to illustrate proportion. This chart
shows the breakdown of items in a set as percentages by presenting them as slices of a pie. Always remember when dealing
with pie chart, all the slices must equal to 100%.
[Link] MAPS. Information maps are the general terms for ways of visually representing
relationship between information, ideas and concepts.

1. VENN DIAGRAM. Venn diagram is a type of information map used to compare concepts and ideas. It is
composed of two or more overlapping circles to represent.

2. MAIN IDEA AND DETAILS CHART. This refers to the web-like structures that show relationship between major concepts
and their subordinate elements. This information map can be used to represent words, ideas or other items linked to
and arrange around a central key idea of a text and display relationship of the different components of an idea to the
main idea. Thus, this visual tool can help us distinguish main idea from its details.

Activity 4: Choose the Right Choice!

 Directions: Read and understand the questions. Write the letter of the correct answer on your answer sheet.

Activity 5: You Complete Me!

Directions: Interpret the given passage by presenting your answers on the appropriate columns in the table.

There are many kinds of venomous snakes. Rattlesnakes, for examples, are found throughout the Western
Hemisphere. They range from one to eight feet in length. The likelihood of a human dying as a result of rattler’s bite is low.
Cottonmouths are found from Virginia to Texas. Their bite is very dangerous and maybe fatal. They can reach up to five feet in
length. The coral snake is smaller, ranging from one half to four feet in length. The coral snake, which may be found from the
Southern United States to South America, is very deadly. King cobras, found throughout southern Asia, may reach a length of
sixteen feet.
The king cobra’s bite is not usually deadly. The Cape cobra, however, is very deadly. This snake reaches up to seven
feet in length and is found in southern Africa. One of the largest and deadliest snakes is the black mamba. This snake reaches
up to fourteen feet in length and is found in southern and central Africa. Almost all of the people who are attacked by black
mamba die if they do not receive medical treatment immediately after being bitten.
