WHAT ARE TEXT STRUCTURES?
Text structures (WDPI, 2012) refer to the way authors
organize information in text.

Recognizing the underlying structure of texts can help


students focus attention on key concepts and relationships,
anticipate what is to come, and monitor their comprehension
as they read.
WHY IS TEXT STRUCTURE IMPORTANT?
1. Organize information and details they are learning in their
minds while reading.

2. Make connections between the details being presented in a


text.

3. Summarize the important details shared in a text.

vanish. He believes that everyone is responsible for restoring the
toad species. Dr. Knapp thinks we could help restore the toad
population if we stop mowing parts of our lawns and let the grass
grow wild to reserve space for the toad. He also believes we need
to stop using pesticides and fertilizers. The chemicals kill the
insects that toads eat. If we preserve some spaces in our lawns and
stop using fertilizers, Dr. Knapp believes we can save the toads.
