Sleep
Experts say that people (adults) need at least 6 hours
of sleep every night. If they do not get enough sleep they
will feel sleepy the whole day. Younger kids need at least
9 hours of sleep every night. After school – activities can
take away from sleep time for kids. Also parents with
busy life styles stay up late and their kids do the same.
Kids with little sleep have hard time sleeping at
night and this will affect their daily routine and make
them less active and productive through the day in school.
Most parents are not aware of what goes on
when their kids go to sleep and how the brain works
when we are asleep.
Many people think that the brain shuts down
when we go to sleep but it is the opposite. Experts say
that the brain is very active when we are asleep and could
be even more active than when we are awake.

• Are considered to be things that can be seen,
visible things other than printed words that are
used in a communication process and the term
“verbal” applies to written or spoken words.
• Tables and graphs are used to express ideas
creatively and to present information
systematically.

Table A systematic arrangement or
grouping of related numbers
of words in rows and
columns so that their values
are easily seen. (Villain et al.
2003).
A table also permits rapid
access to and relatively
easy comparison of
information; it can show
trends- patterns of rising or
falling activity.

Basic Types of Tables
1. General Purpose Table-
 this is an arrangement of the
broad area of data.
 Has no special analytic
purpose and is often found
in reports.
A good table follows specific guidelines:
1. It follows general construction lines.
2. It is easy to read.
3. Each column in it should have a heading, usually
in italics, with the initial letters of significant words
capitalized.
4. The source of data is indicated below the bottom
horizontal line of the table.

. Graphics are illustrated visual forms that summarize information
and ideas through words, symbols, pictures, and drawings.
They serve as additional tools in learning, specifically in
comprehending and explaining complicated processes, concepts,
relationships, and others.
 Graphic Organizers- referred to as knowledge maps, concept
maps, story maps, cognitive organizers, advance organizrs, or
concept diagrams.

b. Cause & Effect Diagram emphasizes the connection between
the different concepts. This is called the most beneficial
organizer. Since it can be applied to all subject areas.

Line Graph is a common type of chart which displays the
information as a series of data points connected by line
segments to show trends.

Task 2: Decipher and Decode
Directions: Each block represents a phrase. Identify
what is asked in each box.
Questions:
How did you get the answer to each box?
What helps you in understanding and getting the meaning of given texts?
Quite easy right? Let's have more exercises.
