Which story did you like the best? Why? Which information text was the most interesting? Why? Listening Text Today, I’m going to read a summary of four texts that we read in this course. A summary is a short statement of the main points of a text. I want you to listen and tell me which four texts I am summarizing. Over the last two weeks we read two texts about some big cats, one about the water cycle, and one more about thunderstorms. The two texts about leopards, cheetahs and jaguars looked at the differences between these three big cats, their physical features, their behavior and the habitats where they live. They highlighted the way that the three animals differ in their coats, their bodies, and their faces. If you know about the differences, it’s much easier to tell them apart when you see them. These big cats are facing dangers due to human activities and habitat loss. Another text we read was about the water cycle. It explained the processes of evaporation, condensation, precipitation, and the way that water on our planet goes through a continuous cycle. The water cycle is very important for life and a healthy planet. The final reading was about thunderstorms. The text explained how thunderstorms form through evaporation, condensation and precipitation as described in the water cycle text also. The text also explained how lightning and thunder form during a storm, by positive and negative particles in the cloud that create an electric field. Instruction: Answer and discuss the following questions below with the same group, manila paper and marker will also be given then present your output in the class. 1. Which texts did I summaries?

What information from those texts did the summary include? It included that differences between the big cats were in body, face and coat, but was not specific about the features. It mentioned the habitat and the loss of habitat, but again did not mention the details. It talked about the processes of evaporation, condensation and precipitation in the water cycle and how water keeps circulating around the planet. It also talked about storms and how they occur in a similar way to the processes in the water cycle.
