Task 3 - Factual Text type - Explanation

There are different types of explanation texts. In this case, it is an explanation to solve a problem

 An explanation text type:

• starts by naming the topic
• describes items related to the topic in their right order
• explains how the items relate to each other and to the topic
• may end with a concluding statement
• may include visual images, eg flowcharts and diagrams, which support what is written in words written in the present tense

You need to first gather facts. Some useful links are
