2.2 Analysis (suggested time 10 mins.)

Processing Questions:

2. How were you able to connect one sentence to another?

2.3. Abstraction (suggested time 20 mins.)

Discuss to students:
Coherence and cohesion are two basic features that facilitate textual continuity.
Basically, coherence refers to the rhetorical aspects of your writing, which include
developing and supporting your argument (e.g. thesis statement development),
synthesizing and integrating readings, organizing and clarifying ideas.
Coherence means the connection and organization of ideas in a text to create
unity.
To achieve coherence, every good paragraph must have UNITY or oneness of
idea. Sentences in a paragraph are unified and directed by a topic sentence. On the other
hand, cohesion in writing means unifying ideas by binding words, phrases, sentences and
paragraphs, thus, show relationships and smooth “text flow”.
While coherence focuses on the overall (macro) structure of the essay, cohesion is
more specific. It pays attention to links between words and sentences.
To achieve good cohesion, you need to know how to use cohesive devices,
certain words or phrases that serve the purpose of connecting two statements, usually by
referring back to what you have previously written or said Here is a chart of the
transitional devices (also called conjunctive adverbs or adverbial conjunctions)
accompanied with a simplified definition of function.
Note to the teacher: Present & discuss the lesson with a well detailed slide deck
2.4 Application (suggested time 5 mins.)
Directions: Combine each pair of sentences by changing one sentence to a subordinate

clause. Use an appropriate subordinating conjunction to link the ideas.
Sample: I got tired. It was so late.
Answer: I got tired because it was so late.
1. I was studying my lesson. I heard a loud crash in the next room.

2. I pulled the blankets on my bed. I was afraid.

3. I finally got up from where I was sitting. I heard the cat’s meow.
For items 4-5, continue the story by completing the sentences.
4. I went to get a broom so that _________________________________.
5. I did not get very much sleep that night because __________________.
II. Evaluation (suggested time 7 mins.)
Directions: Write T if the statement is correct and F if it is wrong.

____1. Unity of ideas is important in building a coherent paragraph.
____2. To achieve coherence, every paragraph must have a separate idea.
____3. Cohesion focuses in the micro structure of an essay.
____4. Paying attention to links between words and sentences is cohesion.
