Hello everyone, my name is Namira Hasnalma Aisyah and Im from 27 Senior High School Class XI Science 1. So, today I want to tell you about procedure text.

Procedure is a text that shows a process in order. Its social function is to describe how something is completely done through a sequence of series. Or

(1)Texts that explain how something works or how to use instruction / operation manuals e.g. how to use the video, the computer, the tape recorder, the photocopier, the fax                                                     (2) Texts that instruct how to do a particular activity e.g. recipes, rules for games, science experiments, road safety rules.
(3) Texts that deal with human behaviour eg how to live happily, how to succeed.

Generic Structure:

1. Goal : It is containt the purpose of the text.
2. Material or Ingredient : it is containt of the materials that used in the process.
3. Step : it is containt of the steps to make something in the goal.

The Purpose:

1. To explain/tell (the reader) how to make/operate/do something through a sequence of actions or steps.

3. Using action verb

• Next, take the peeled bananas and slice the banana into very thin pieces. Put them aside in a bowl.
• Then, fill the pot with 1 cup of sugar and stir it continuously.
• Next, cook until brown in medium heat. Don’t step away for more than 10 seconds because this will burn if you don’t watch it carefully.
• Once brown, add 1/3 a cup of water and the sliced banana you put aside. Don’t forget to keep stirring on low heat.
• When no banana pieces are noticeable, turn off heat.
• After that, put in a container or covered bowl and put in the fridge until chilled.
