Start here!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is the reason the author is writing. It is why the author is writing what they are writing or their intent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Understanding this idea can help students in both reading and in their writing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the past teachers have focused on three intents for writing: persuade, inform and entertain. The beginning letters of these words can be put together to form the word PIE as a reminder for students. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Recently, this list has been expanded. Now the list includes persuade, inform, entertain, explain and describe. This is a more complete list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thecurriculumcorner.com\/thecurriculumcorner123\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/authors-purpose-pinterest.jpg\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" data-pin-description=\"Free!

They might want you to believe what they believe or are working to make you try a new product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Examples: <\/strong>ads, reviews, speeches, billboards<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Inform<\/strong> &ndash; the author is giving the reader information about a topic. They are helping the reading learn more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Examples:<\/strong> biographies, informational text, documentaries, newspaper articles<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Entertain <\/strong>&ndash; the author is entertaining the reader. They are telling a story that the reader will enjoy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Examples:<\/strong> literature, poetry, comic books, joke books<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Explain <\/strong>&ndash; The author is telling how something works. They might be explaining steps in a process or sharing how to do something.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Examples: <\/strong>directions, how-to books, recipes<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Describe<\/strong> &ndash; The author is using the senses to tell about a topic. They want to use words that will help you visualize what they are telling about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Examples: <\/strong>travel brochure, an essay using the senses to tell about your favorite restaurant, product descriptions<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\">Identifying Author&rsquo;s Purpose<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As students begin working on this subject, it is helpful to talk the idea through as a class. You might share books and then have students work together to determine the purpose. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is important for students to understand that author&rsquo;s might have more than one intent when writing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, a restaurant review might be written to describe the food and restaurant. It might also be used to persuade a diner to try or avoid a restaurant. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Talking through this idea when discussing different books can help students see how it can be ok to have more than one answer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\">Slides for the Classroom<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The first download below contains slides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can use these to use as a teaching tool on your SmartBoard. Or, you might choose to print the options that would benefit your students as anchor charts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This set of slides can also help those of you who will be teaching this in a virtual setting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The slides can be used to help guide your discussion. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Included are descriptions of each purpose along with examples.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, there are individual slides that contain text examples. As a class you can discuss the purpose of each. This is a good place to emphasize that an author might have more than one purpose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The final slide is one that might make a good printed anchor chart if you need one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\">Author&rsquo;s Purpose Worksheets<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The second download includes graphic organizers and worksheets to continue practice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Exploring Author&rsquo;s Purpose Chart &ndash; students can complete the chart with a definition of each and examples. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sketch Notes &ndash; there are two options, one contains picture clues, the other does not. Students can take notes on these pages in a way that is a little more creative. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cut &amp; Paste Author&rsquo;s Purpose Worksheet &ndash; cut apart the text descriptions and paste under the correct purpose<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Identifying Author&rsquo;s Purpose &ndash; give students a stack of books or other texts. They will sort and record the titles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Graphic Organizer &ndash; students will choose one text to focus on while practicing the skill<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Exit Tickets &ndash; these can be a quick check for your students<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-white-color has-vivid-green-cyan-background-color has-text-color has-background has-medium-font-size\">You can download these free reading workshop materials here:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-large-font-size\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thecurriculumcorner.com\/thecurriculumcorner123\/wp-content\/pdf\/reading\/unitsofstudy\/author's%20purpose.pdf\">Teaching &amp; Practice Slides<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-large-font-size\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thecurriculumcorner.com\/thecurriculumcorner123\/wp-content\/pdf\/reading\/unitsofstudy\/author's%20purpose%20printables.pdf\">Worksheets<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As with all of our resources, The Curriculum Corner creates these for free classroom use.
