Text Purpose Detective is an engaging activity that will challenge students to consider and categorise different text types. Using their detective skills, students will need to decide if the purpose of the text title and image is to persuade, entertain or perform and colour accordingly. Students must draw on their knowledge of different texts and continually consider that they have different purposes. With three versions available, Text Purpose Detective is guaranteed to engage and challenge your students. Use this low-prep activity as part of a lesson or an early finisher task, or leave it out on student tables as a morning activity; the options are endless. It’s time to start investigating! Available in our basic fun font and all Australian state fonts.
