What educators are saying
Description
Inform? Persuade? Entertain? Help students learn to evaluate text to determine the author's purpose and explain how it is conveyed. This low prep resource includes 32 author’s purpose task cards, an anchor chart, recording sheets, & an answer key. Cards 1-24 are easier. Students are asked to chose a multiple choice answer, & list the text evidence that helped them figure it out. Cards 25 – 32 ask students to write short paragraphs with a specific purpose in mind. This provides a means for differentiation and more of a challenge for those who need it.

- Scavenger Hunt - Hide cards around the room. Students search for cards and answer them.
- Games - Number block tower blocks. Students stack the blocks, then take turns pulling blocks. Students answer the corresponding number card. Add a whiteboard for tic-tac-toe and the task cards become an instant game! Another fun idea is to make them part of a board game (Sorry, Chutes and Ladders, Checkers, etc.). They simply need to answer the problem correctly to earn an extra spin etc.
- Whole-Class Practice - Teacher displays card on the projector. Students answer on mini-whiteboards.
- Exit Tickets - Give each student a task card at the end of the lesson. Have them answer on a sticky note.
