1 Why Do Authors Use Text Features?
2 Text Features Sticker Lesson Use this lesson as an introduction or review of what text features are and why authors use them. IRA/NCTE Standard Students apply a wide range of strategies to comprehend, interpret, evaluate, and appreciate texts. They draw on their prior experience, their interactions with other readers and writers, their knowledge of word meaning and of other texts, their word identification strategies, and their understanding of textual features (e.g., sound-letter correspondence, sentence structure, context, graphics). Student Objective Students will analyze nonfiction text in order to determine why authors use a variety of text features. Materials Activity Blank Text Feature Sticker Chart per group One column of text features stickers per group Several texts which feature a variety of text features (text books, magazines, etc.) 1. Activate prior knowledge by asking students what they know about text features. Students will probably list the text features they know. 2. Tell students that today they are going to look at different kinds of text features to find out why authors use them when they are creating stories and other texts. 3. Assign students to work together in cooperative teams of 2-4. Distribute column of stickers and blank Text Feature Sticker Chart to each group. Model selecting the first sticker and use a think-aloud to determine which column is the best fit for it. (SAY: the first sticker is large bold print. Let me see I don t think it helps readers visualize, because it s letters, not pictures. It doesn t really help organize either. And while something in bold print can explain or define something, it doesn t have to, so I don t think it goes under Informational Aids. Bold print does help you find the words in bold quickly, so I m going to put it under Print Aids. ) 4. Groups sort the text feature stickers according to their purpose. They may use the texts to help them decide where to place the text features. Assessment Review the charts and discuss why stickers were placed in each category. (See the answer key on page 5.) Extensions Post the Text Features poster in your room for students to refer to. Use the stickers to label the text features in a copy of a text. Students can decide how well the author used text features, which text feature is most helpful, what other text features could be included, etc. Use the written reader response sheet to write about an author s use of text features.

Graphic aids help the reader visualize or make pictures in his/her mind. Informational aids help the reader understand new or important information.

Use details from the set of directions in your explanation. One text feature from the text is the sketches on the right side of the paper. These sketches help me to put a picture in my head so I know how to do it. Now I know that in Step 4 I need to put the paper clips on the point of the airplane and not on the tail of the airplane. If the didn t have the sketches then I would be wondering why it says paper clips with an arrow and I wouldn t know where to put the paper clips.
