https://padlet.com/jackie_holt/kk248co6panv Is the paragraph on the card fiction or nonfiction (informational text)? How do you know? Did know the author's purpose help you to decide? Rewrite the paragraph on the card to give it a different author's purpose. https://padlet.com/jackie_holt/kk248co6panv en-us 2016-11-22 15:18:05 UTC 2021-11-11 09:32:21 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.com/jackie_holt/kk248co6panv/wish/139382272 The author's purpose of the story is to entertain the reader about Jason's homework missing and how he found it. I know because I learned that informing gives you information, entertaining tells you a stork, and when you persuade you try to make the reader think what you think. Jason's homework tale tells you a story so it's a entertaining story.  Also it's fiction most entertaining is fiction.

Always keep track of your homework. If you don't then there can be punishments. You could get lower grades, your teacher can get mad, and you can walk laps or not get treasure box (young kids). If you make lame excuses like my dog ate my homework they might know you are not telling the truth and more punishment for you so always keep track of your homework, or else! Also homework keep's your mind working all day.]]> 2016-11-22 15:25:46 UTC https://padlet.com/jackie_holt/kk248co6panv/wish/139382272 https://padlet.com/jackie_holt/kk248co6panv/wish/139382400 The paragraph on the card is nonfiction because it is giving real facts about pufferfish.  The authors purpose is to inform you about a type of fish. I know it is to inform because it is giving you facts. The authors purpose helped me decide if the text was nonfiction or fiction because  if it was fiction, it would tell you something that is not true and is probably a made up story. If it was nonfiction, it would be real and give you informational facts.

I  know this because in this story  it is trying to tell you to think before you do. I can restate the authors purpose by entertaining you. Covered in dragons  blood, the brave knight stumbled into the cave. He could not believe his eyes! Gold! silver, diamonds and other gems glittered in front of him. He was rich!

  "Not so fast." said a voice from behind a pile of silver. A young woman emerged with her sword ready. "this is my treasure." But the knight took the gold anyway. The young  woman whispered "here's your revenge  hahahaheeehe"

   The next day the knight woke up to find himself a tiny, fat midgit with a weird face. " ahhhhhhh!" he yelled as he looked at himself in the mirror. So he went back to the cave  with the gold and gems but he had to use a wagon. " I know what I have done wrong and I'm sorry," he said to the women. " ok ok I will change you back."

I could rewrite the authors purpose like this. You should give you child chores. chores will help your kids know how to do lobs that they will need in their adult hood. For instence if your child learns how to pull the weeds he or she will already know how to do that in their adult hood.

Do you really think you would find your homework in the refrigerator? That helps me to think that this is a fictional story. Plus, a nonfiction paragraph would have true facts, not unreal stuff.

I know that because it is giving real world facts about pufferfish like ''there are more than 120 different types of pufferfish.'' The author's purpose helped me decide if it is fiction or nonfiction because paragraphs that inform you are nonfiction. The purpose could have changed if it was to persuade you like this...
Pufferfish are cute and fun. They look cool when they puff up in a big spiky ball. Also they will not die from another fish that want to eat them, so they will live long.

The authors purpose is to inform you about what pufferfish do and what they look like. I know because it is giving you facts about pufferfish.
       The authors purpose helped me decide what type of purpose it was because if it was entertain, the author would be telling a story. If it was persuade,  the author would be trying to get you to do something. 
  The author could have changed it to persuading like this. Pufferfish are the coolest fish in the world by a mile. The spikes look so awesome and an important part of their body.. They can look so big that the spikes scare off the predators. There are 120 different types of pufferfish in the world! Can you believe that? That is a lot of different kinds of pufferfish. I hope pufferfish is your favorite animal too.]]> 2016-11-22 15:27:53 UTC https://padlet.com/jackie_holt/kk248co6panv/wish/139383155 https://padlet.com/jackie_holt/kk248co6panv/wish/139383196 The paragraph on the card is nonfiction because it says, "there are more than 120 different kinds of puffer-fish." That gives facts about the puffer-fish. The authors purpose that was to inform you about the puffer fish helped me to decide if the text was fiction or nonfiction because I knew that since the text was giving me facts I knew that it was nonfiction. I also knew that the card was to inform because when you want to write a persuasive piece it wants to try to convince you to do something. If the piece wants to  entertain you it tells you a funny story. My card in entertaining purpose would be something like this. 

      Hannah the puffer-fish was drifting off in class. She wanted school to be over. Her boring teacher named Mrs. Labber was teaching the class of puffer-fish class about their new spelling words. After six hours of boring school the bell rang. School was out! Hannah grabbed her bag and swam out of school. 
Hannah didn't go home. She swam to an open area. Just then a shark came out of no where! Hannah went like a ballon and the shark went away.

 Everyone's favorite animal should be a pufferfish. Did you know there is 120 types of pufferfish? That is quite a lot! A pufferfish has good self defense. It has spikes. I hope you like pufferfish now. If you do then buy one from me, or else.
P.s. I have no idea what pufferfish eat, so you can't really trust me.]]> 2016-11-22 15:28:00 UTC https://padlet.com/jackie_holt/kk248co6panv/wish/139383200 https://padlet.com/jackie_holt/kk248co6panv/wish/139383221 The author´s purpose on the card is to entertain because it is not telling you how to do something or telling you something it is telling you a story which when you are telling someone a story you are entertaining them. It is fiction because it never could/had happened. The author´s purpose did help me decide if the story was fiction or nonfiction because normally is informing you and fiction is normally entertaining you or persuading you.  

Kids always lose their homework. Like putting it in a refrigerator or putting it in the bathroom. Follow these steps to do to not lose your homework. Number one find a spot that is safe and is in a place that only you know about. Number two Place your homework there every night and you will never lose it. ]]> 2016-11-22 15:28:06 UTC https://padlet.com/jackie_holt/kk248co6panv/wish/139383221 https://padlet.com/jackie_holt/kk248co6panv/wish/139383373 This text is fiction. I know because the story does not have any actual facts in it. Knowing the author's purpose to entertain helped me because it is an entertaining piece. So there were no actual facts. Also the story says a boy named Jason finds his homework in a refrigerator, but in real life that is very unlikely.

Jason hated doing his homework, but his mom always made him do it. She told him it was more important than he thought it was. But Jason didn't listen. One night Jason couldn't find his homework he looked everywhere but he couldn't find it. So he went to his  mom and said he needed help to find his homework. But right then his mom pulled his homework from behind her back and she said," I told you homework was more important than you thought it was".
Son know you know how important it is to do homework.]]> 2016-11-22 15:28:30 UTC https://padlet.com/jackie_holt/kk248co6panv/wish/139383373 https://padlet.com/jackie_holt/kk248co6panv/wish/139383429 This passage is nonfiction because doing chores and how they're important is real. The authors purpose is to persuade  you that doing chores is important. I think this because it says that you will need to do these things when you are an adult. If you need to do these chores when you are an adult it usually means that they are pretty important. 
   Chores are something good for children to do around the house. This will most likely put a smile on your parents face. Doing chores is good because you will need to do these things when you are an adult. This will build trust and responsibility in you by your parents. That is why doing chores is a good thing to do.]]> 2016-11-22 15:28:39 UTC https://padlet.com/jackie_holt/kk248co6panv/wish/139383429 https://padlet.com/jackie_holt/kk248co6panv/wish/139383438  I think that it is nonfictional and to entertain you because it says dragons blood and those are myths and it is funny that out of nowhere a lady with a sword and claimed the gold and gems for herself. 
  I was minding my own busness and a knight came and tried to take my gems! I grabed my sword and said get out but he tried to fight me and he won and i'm trying to get them back.
 Beleave me not him and his tomfoolery of a story. It mite be exciting but mine is true! I worked for those gems all my life, and i'm not going to loos them now not even in my will!]]> 2016-11-22 15:28:41 UTC https://padlet.com/jackie_holt/kk248co6panv/wish/139383438 https://padlet.com/jackie_holt/kk248co6panv/wish/139385078 The authors purpose of this fiction paragraph is to entertain you by telling a story of a brave knight who slayed a dragon. But when the knight got to the treasure there was already another person at the treasure to claim it when the knight should have gotten it. The point of view is third person because it uses keywords like he and she. 

As the brave knight came to the treasure another knight came out and said "this is my treasure" but when the knight said that the two knights started to fight. All because the one knight claimed something that was not his, so it it is not nice at all to claim something that is not yours. This new paragraph is to persuade you not to to take something you did not work for. ]]> 2016-11-22 15:32:54 UTC https://padlet.com/jackie_holt/kk248co6panv/wish/139385078 https://padlet.com/jackie_holt/kk248co6panv/wish/139385279 The passage is nonfiction because it has lots of real facts. I think the authors purpose is to tell you to be careful around Puffer-fish and to teach you a little bit about'em.                                  So, today I'm going to

Also to inform you that chores can have an effect on you(like how you and others feel). It also may make your parents happy. I also think the text is non-fiction because the text is real and not fake because it is telling you FACTS about chores.

 Don't be lazy! Join others doing chores! If you do, then it makes your parents happy and you can also get awarded! Don't delay! Do chores today! Chores also let you learn how to do things what you need to do when your an adult. Such as mowing lawns, folding laundry. So do chores today, and don't be lazy!

Also I think it could be persuade because it is telling the reader to not steal something that is not yours.
