Abstract: In this study, data were gathered to assess the writing weaknesses of the students and process-genre based expository writing lessons were designed. It is concluded that the lessons provided opportunities for the students to acquire an understanding of the purpose and structure of the expository writing genre through cause and effect, classification, and process and of the processes of rewriting, drafting, revising, and editing, and enable them to use that knowledge to compose a text, both as a group and individually. The lessons were constructed using the ADDIE model of instructional materials development. These can also be adopted for use by teachers handling English either as the main instructional material or as supplementary material on teaching writing.
