Author's Purpose




One part of reading (and writing) is knowing the purpose of the text you are reading. Asking ourselves WHY did the author write this book? What was their purpose? We learn that simply an author writes to Entertain ; Persuade ; Inform . For a bit of practice, I had the students use our extra Scholastic Book Orders to see if they figure which category would fit some of the books...(thank you Pinterest)
