Let’s Look at Imaginative, Persuasive and Informative Paragraphs

As educators, we know that paragraphs provide structure to texts and allow ideas to flow in a clear and logical manner. This is something that students need to be explicitly taught.

Paragraphs provide structure to texts and allow ideas to flow clearly and logically. This PowerPoint presentation has been designed to teach your students how to structure paragraphs in imaginative, persuasive and informative texts. It covers the following content:

• an overview of the purpose and types of imaginative, persuasive and informative texts
• simple steps to follow when structuring a paragraph for each text type
• annotated example paragraphs for each text type
• a writing activity for students for each text type.

Why Compare Text Type Paragraphs?

Comparing text type paragraphs is an invaluable practice for readers and writers alike. By dissecting and contrasting different passages, individuals can attain clarity and a deeper understanding of complex topics. Such comparisons unveil disparities and resemblances, fostering critical thinking as readers evaluate arguments and viewpoints.

Moreover, synthesising information from various sources enhances comprehension and cultivates nuanced perspectives. For writers, analysing paragraph structures and language use in diverse texts serves as a blueprint for honing their own craft, enriching their writing style. In essence, the act of comparing paragraphs serves as a gateway to intellectual growth and the refinement of communication skills.
