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?

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

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.

of reasons, such as to make

predictions, clear up anything they’re

unsure about, or to think more about

the text.
