Overview of Text Structure

Standards:

RI6.5 Analyze how a particular sentence, paragraph, chapter, or section fits into the overall structure of a text and contributes to the development of the ideas.

Direction:

It is important that you can identify the author's purpose for writing a text, but it is just as important that you can identify the way the author structures their text. There are several different structures authors use to write texts. Today we will be learning about the 5 most common structures used in nonfiction writing. 

Have a great day!
