Description

This learning resource is centered on helping students identify and distinguish between various text structures used in written passages. Students will explore common text structures such as Description, Sequence, Cause and Effect, Compare and Contrast, and Problem and Solution. Each structure is explained with clues that indicate their presence. The document includes passages for students to analyze, asking them to identify the text structure and the signal words that signal these structures. It culminates in self-assessment and a creative writing challenge where students can apply what they've learned by choosing a text structure and writing a paragraph accordingly, reinforcing their understanding through practice and reflection.
