Authors use various sound devices to draw attention and to give rhythm to their writing.

Repetition of a word or sound can show that an idea or feeling is important in the text.

Authors use rich language to help readers create mental images. Language that appeals to the senses is called imagery.

# data[].attributes.body
Authors use a text structure that supports their purpose for writing and clarifies the information they want to share.

In a sequence text structure, an author presents events in the order that they happen. Authors help readers see the sequence of events by using transition words, such as those shown on the Anchor Chart. Dates and times also signal sequence.

By describing events in the order that they happen, authors help readers understand how one event led to another.

Readers learn about characters and how they are connected to one another.

Characters that are the focus of a story

are considered major characters, while

those with a lesser role are minor

characters.

Where and when a story

takes place can influence the plot. For

example, characters may be involved

in different activities in a story set in a

home than they would be for a story set in a school.

Events in a story are presented in the

order that they happen. Authors use this text structure to show how

the events build on each other, and how one event leads to the next.

The three main purposes an author may have for

writing: to persuade, to inform, and

to entertain.

An author’s purpose

affects the ideas and details included in

a text. For example, an author who

wants to inform readers about running

would include facts about speed or

techniques, while an author who wants

to entertain readers might focus on

runners’ feelings or motivations.

Students can ask

questions to help them determine the author’s purpose. For example: Is the

author sharing facts about a topic? Does the author want to make me laugh? Is the

author trying to make me think in a certain way?

A person’s speaking voice is individual and recognizable. The way an author chooses words and develops sentences to share ideas also creates a voice that is unique. These word choices and sentence types create a mood, or feeling, for readers. An author’s word choice may also include literal language such as precise nouns and verbs to describe an action or event.

Review and discuss the possible strategies to consider when a particular word is confusing or unfamiliar.

The strategies used when a text is confusing can be adapted for a video. For example, rewinding and watching part of the video again may provide a chance to notice details that were missed on the first viewing.
