DESCRIBING GRAPHS

 GRAPH DESCRIPTIONS FOR GRADE 10 AND 11

 Recommended for General English

 

The test on graphs carries 10 marks at the OL exam ( Sri Lanka). Describing graphs has also been included in the General English paper. 

My objective here is not to teach you how to write descriptions of graphs ; yet to help you form an idea as to how a description is written. By going through the following descriptions, you will probably be able to form an idea as to how a description on a graph is written.  However, you need constant practice as a student, so find some more activities and keep on writing. It will enable you to produce a sound description.
