Let’s Understand the concept of reading texts. It is necessary to learn the
strategies of making connections to texts. Here are the different kinds of texts
connections.
The 3 Different Kinds of Text Connections
2. Text-to-Text – this occurs when something in the texts reminds the reader of
a previously read text like books by the same author, stories from a similar
genre, or perhaps on the same topic.
Example:
“This character has the same problem that I read about in the story last year.”
3. Text-to-World – these are connections between events in the story and things
that we have seen or read about occurring in the real world. The larger
connections that a reader brings to a reading situation. We learn about things
through television, movies, magazines, and newspapers.
Example:
“I saw a program on television that talked about things describe in this article.”

B. Read and analyze the poem entitled “The Man with a Hoe” by Edwin Markham.
5
Upon his hoe and gazes on the ground,
The emptiness of ages in his face,
And on his back the burden of the world.
Who made him dead to rapture and despair,
A thing that grieves not and that never hopes,
Stolid and stunned, a brother to the ox?
Who loosened and let down this brutal jaw?
Whose was the hand that slanted back this brow?
Whose breath blew out the light within this brain?
6
O masters, lords, and rulers in all lands,
is this the handiwork you give to God,
This monstrous thing distorted and soul-quenched?
How will you ever straighten up this shape;
Touch it again with immortality;
Give back the upward looking and the light;
Rebuild in it the music and the dream;
Make right the immemorial infamies,
Perfidious wrongs, immedicable woes?
