Description

Your students can enjoy identifying the author’s purpose and writing with purpose with these handy worksheets.

The first part of the worksheet provides short texts that the students need to label with the correct author’s purpose. For the second part, the purpose is provided, and your students need to become the authors and write short texts themselves.

Three differentiated versions of the worksheet are available. The first version focuses on PIE for the authors’ purposes (to persuade, inform, and entertain). The second version includes two additional purposes: explain and describe (PIE’ED). For the final version, the students are encouraged to consider how texts can have multiple purposes.

When you have decided which version of the worksheet to give to which students, you can print the number of copies that you require and begin the activity.
