Text StructureWhat is text structure?Why is it important?

Page 27: Mystery

Text StructureWhat is text structure?

Why is it important?

Text Structure is the main parts of a text and how they fit together.Understanding text structure helps us determine the main idea, and supporting details. This helps us determine the purpose of a text.

Page 28: Mystery

Text Structure of Informational Texts

Informational TextDetails and Examples Details and examples explain

the topic.Experiences Experiences are things that

happened to real people.Visuals Visuals are pictures that help

readers understand the text.

Reading Strategy

Authors do not always give us all the information.Sometimes you have to guess based on information you already know.Use evidence from the text to make these guesses.

Make inferences based on evidence.

Page 31: Mystery

Practice making inferencesRead these

sentences.

A man comes into the room.He is wearing a wet raincoat.

Page 32: Mystery

Practice making inferencesRead these

sentences.

A man comes into the room.He is wearing a wet raincoat.

Which of these is an inference based on the

sentences?

It is raining.The man is cold.

Page 33: Mystery

Practice making Inferences

Think Aloud:When I walk past the gym, I hear people cheering. I know that people cheer during games, so I can make an inference that there is a basketball game or some other game happening in the gym.

Page 34: Mystery

Practice with the Summary

Work with your partner to put the summary in order.Read the summary.What inferences can you make based on evidence found in the summary?Either paraphrase (put into your own words) the summary, or make a text sketch of the summary. You might want to paraphrase while your partner sketches.
