I can describe the author's purpose in relation to structure and language choices in a text and give relevant evidence (eg vocabulary used)

W.A.L.T I can describe the author's purpose in relation to structure and language choices in a text and give relevant evidence (e.g vocabulary used)
This is my Authors Purpose sheet what we had to do was read a text and say 3 types of language and 3 types of structure the author used e.g Bias. We also had to say if the text was a persuasive text, a entertaining text and a informative text.

L5 Author’s Purpose follow up
I can describe the author's purpose in relation to structure and language choices in a text and give relevant evidence (e.g vocabulary used)
I can compare and contrast differences in the author's purpose in relation to structure and language choices between different texts.
Text:
The Rat
The author’s purpose is Entertain because it is fiction story that is written out as a diary for people  enjoyment


The specific language/ structure choices that the author has made to support their purpose are, that the writer wrote this piece of writing like a diary and used colourful headings of the diary entries and also made colourful pictures. The language they used were slang they also made it 1st person view and lastly they used descriptive language talking about how she feels about her dad not having a job

Specific language choices in the 3 texts:
They are all very descriptive and are rather casual.

none of them are informative.

They all at some point used technical language. describing how they feel how how people feel

Structure of the 3 texts:
They are all not written like typical stories they are written in letters diary’s and plays.

The writing was all organised because as when you just finished reading a paragraph/sentence another paragraph/sentence would come up all organised into place.

The writing is written level it is all in lines and paragraphs.

Graffiti
The author’s purpose is persuade because their writing there opinion on graffiti


The specific language/ structure choices that the author has made to support their purpose are strong language The Structure was written as a whole blob not really any paragraphs they also wrote it like a letter as it was writing their opinion they also wrote it in 1st person saying their point of view in everything.
The language they used were descriptive using lots of adjectives, also very formal language and very technical language.


Text: Stop that punctuation!


The author’s purpose is… Entertain because this is writing as a play and plays are usually for entertainment also it was more quirky then most of the texts I have read.


The specific language/ structure choices that the author has made to support their purpose the structure they used was lines as it was a play and they used a lot of colour in words they also used illustrations to support their purpose.
The language they used was slang, comedic and 3rd person language.

Differences
Stop that punctuation and The Rat have colloquial language (slang)
and one of them is more stronger language.

Graffiti and The Rat are written as 1st person but as for stop punctuation it is written 3rd person

only the rat and stop that punctuation used comedic language to come across more of a funny/entertaining text while Graffiti is much more serious and trying to get there point across.








Differences
They all come across very different as some 1 is more comedic one is pausausave and one is just generally more entertaining.

The rat and stop that punctuation contain illustrations and Graffiti is just written as a letter with no illustrations.

Stop that punctuation had colour on the writing as it was a play but graffiti’s and the rat’s writing was just black.
