Today we started thinking about the writer's purpose. This is something that can help us understand what we are reading.
The author's purpose is why the writer has written the text.
We discussed 3 different purposes for writing:
- to persuade - to get the reader to do or believe something.
- to inform - to teach the reader or give them information.
- to entertain - to make the reader enjoy reading.
We have been reading a huge range of texts and thinking about why the author may have written it!
Check out this website for a recap.
Photos to come!
