• "PATTERNS OF DEVELOPMENT" REFER TO HOW WRITERS ORGANIZE INFORMATION IN THEIR TEXTS. THESE PATTERNS HELP WRITERS STRUCTURE THEIR IDEAS AND

  PRESENT THEM CLEARLY AND

  COHESIVELY. DIFFERENT TYPES OF

  WRITING CALL FOR DIFFERENT

  ORGANIZATIONAL PATTERNS AND

  UNDERSTANDING THESE PATTERNS CAN ENHANCE COMMUNICATION AND

  COMPREHENSION.
• NARRATION ▪It is a sequence of events, not necessarily in chronological order, told by a narrator, happening in a particular place at a particular time. ▪It usually contains the following: who, what, and when.
• A description pattern provides details on the idea by using either a sensory or spatial pattern. Through a sensory pattern, ideas are arranged based on one or all of the five senses. A spatial pattern, on the other hand, arranges ideas by location or physical space.
• DEFINITION ▪This is understanding the essence of a word, an idea, a concept, or an expression. It should be done clearly or through specific terms so that even the most abstract concepts can easily be understood and relatable to human perception.
• A classification pattern organizes ideas into categories or divisions based on criteria and standards. This pattern can be used when classifying people, objects, events, things, places, and other items. Make sure to always double-check whether each term is undeniably part of a certain category.
• ▪An exemplification pattern presents the general statement

  and then provides specific and concrete examples to expound on the main idea. Simply put, this pattern is used to provide an example of something.
• COMPARE AND CONTRAST ▪This pattern entails dealing with the similarities or likeness of at least two objects and the differences between or among topics. ▪Comparison and contrast are complementary to each other and are usually inseparable.
• ▪A cause-and-Effect pattern

  details based on the cause,

  the reason, and the result or

  consequences of a certain

  phenomenon. This pattern

  may discuss both the causes and effects, the cause only, or the effects only.
• ▪A problem-solution pattern organizes ideas into problems and proposed solutions. The problem section usually includes the “what, who, when, where, why, and how of the problem.” The other part then presents the major effects of the problem and the possible solutions to address it, as well as the steps in implementing the solution.
• A persuasion pattern organizes ideas to show how a set of evidence leads to a logical conclusion or argument. Specifically, this pattern presents the issue, the position, and the supporting evidence that supports the position.
