The 5 Types of Text Structure - By Flocabulary
Transcript
| 00:0-1 | you know , much like buildings . Text , especially | |
| 00:06 | informational on nonfiction texts have to be structurally sound or | |
| 00:12 | else they're all over you feel me ? Yeah , | |
| 00:17 | let's get it . Let's go when you read informational | |
| 00:21 | text to see the pattern in the way that it's | |
| 00:24 | written . Oh yes , yeah . Five main structures | |
| 00:27 | you can check found the structure and they get less | |
| 00:29 | complex . Let's flex and break down . All five | |
| 00:32 | . Follow me . The tax structure mastermind this'll first | |
| 00:36 | text structure is called description . It describes the topic | |
| 00:39 | and his characteristics you'll see , such as and , | |
| 00:42 | for example , in details and adjectives like in the | |
| 00:45 | sample . The famous leaning Tower of Pisa is located | |
| 00:49 | in Italy . Mamma Mia stands over 80 ft tall | |
| 00:53 | , tilted for degrees like you start in the fall | |
| 00:55 | . That description The author describes the tower , so | |
| 00:59 | you have the image in your mind . Now keep | |
| 01:01 | this . The structure called sequence that gives events , | |
| 01:04 | um , way back to most recent destruction begin in | |
| 01:07 | 11 73 . But it was halted when war was | |
| 01:11 | degree building stop for a while . The resumes many | |
| 01:14 | years later in 12 72 sequence , contains dates in | |
| 01:18 | the words next them before 1st , 2nd and 3rd | |
| 01:22 | cause and effect is another way to organize . It's | |
| 01:25 | been authors tell what happened and why . It's also | |
| 01:27 | made the tower settle unevenly . As a result , | |
| 01:30 | it leads . Increasingly . Builders tried to balance it | |
| 01:33 | with more wars , but do the extra weight . | |
| 01:36 | It leans even more words because if they do to | |
| 01:40 | me , the cause and effect is coming right to | |
| 01:42 | you . E find description . I find sequence cause | |
| 01:46 | , and that way you can compare and contrast all | |
| 01:49 | day , all day . There's a problem and solution | |
| 01:52 | . I e . Find description . I find sequence | |
| 01:56 | causing way . Can't compare and contrast all day . | |
| 02:00 | A problem and solution . If you heard the hook | |
| 02:04 | , you already know there's two more tech structures . | |
| 02:07 | Thio sometimes often introduces a problem and then explains , | |
| 02:12 | Somebody solved it . The tower leans more . With | |
| 02:15 | each passing century , the tilt increased more than five | |
| 02:18 | degrees . The people feared it would collapsed into ruins | |
| 02:21 | . Now we know the problem . What's the solution | |
| 02:23 | ? Earth was removed from under the monument , and | |
| 02:26 | waits were added to balance out the top of it | |
| 02:29 | . They corrected the lien at least a little bit | |
| 02:31 | . That problem and solution , not a little kid | |
| 02:34 | . Just look out for the words involved since question | |
| 02:37 | , problem , solution and solved . I got another | |
| 02:40 | text you don't have to ask and it's tax structure | |
| 02:43 | . Compare and contrast . It explains how things were | |
| 02:46 | different and the same with the words in bold . | |
| 02:48 | I'm about to say booth tower Pieces Construction and the | |
| 02:52 | Washington Monument solve Destruction . The Washington Monument named after | |
| 02:56 | George Construction pause for the Civil War like the leaning | |
| 03:00 | Tower in two years to finish . But the purposes | |
| 03:03 | of the buildings were different . One was the record | |
| 03:06 | as a church bell's tower , while the other honor | |
| 03:09 | the founding father . There we compared the two different | |
| 03:12 | towers . That's five tech structures . In 1/16 of | |
| 03:14 | our E find description , I find sequence cause and | |
| 03:20 | that way you can compare and contrast all day , | |
| 03:23 | all day . There's a problem and solution . I | |
| 03:25 | e . Find description . I find sequence causing way | |
| 03:31 | . You can't compare and contrast all day , all | |
| 03:33 | day . There's a problem and solution . I bet |
