A procedural text is a text that informs the reader how to do or make something. Usually, procedural texts give instructions that are presented as a sequence of events. These are given as steps in a process. Common examples of procedural texts are instruction manuals and recipes.
It is important to be clear in a procedural text in order to make sure that the reader understands the instructions and the order in which they should be performed. A procedural text is only useful if it allows the reader to successfully complete the task it explains.
