This digital resource is designed to assist your students in understanding what the purpose of different text types is and why an author might write with an intended purpose.
After an initial exploration of the definition of purpose and the different purposes of text types (to inform, persuade and entertain), students take part in a quiz where they read a short text and determine its purpose. You can engage with this quiz using mini whiteboards, movement, Auslan hand signs or pencil and paper.
Use this resource in tandem with our Text Type Matchy Matchy worksheet for an easy assessment! |
