The material explains how understanding sentence organization and link words helps readers determine purpose and key ideas in a paragraph or essay. It covers making sense of sentences, identifying comparison methods and clues, and using comparison words with a Venn diagram to show similarities and differences. It also introduces analogy as a structured comparison, highlighting main topic and analogical subject roles, followed by categories as an organizing strategy.","Making\nConnections In\nInformational\nTexts\nthrough language organization\nand information links\nMaking sense of sentences\nUnderstanding how a writer organizes language and links information in a paragraph or essay, helps us determine the purpose and key ideas of what we are reading.\nALSO\nEQUALLY\nJUST AS\nTOO\nLIKE\nLIKEWISE\nJUST LIKE\nSTILL\nBOTH\nSIMILAR TO\nSO\nEVEN THOUGH\nComparison\nWe examine similarities or differences between people, objects, or ideas in order\nto arrive at a judgment or conclusion. Some words used for this method are:\nLesson Outline\nComparison\nAnalogy\nCategories\nReading and Writing\nConnection\nComparing with a Venn Diagram\nBelow are details found in the paragraph. Are they part of similarities or differences between the two dogs? The Venn Diagram is one way to clearly show the relationship between these details.\nblack\nfur\ngoes on\nwalks\nlikes being around my dad\nsleeps by the door every afternoon\neats\nslowly\neats\nquickly\nwhite as\nsnow\nlikes being around my mom\nA\nB\ndogs\nComparing with a Venn Diagram\nThese descriptions are near the comparison words we noted earlier.\ngoes on\nwalks\nlikes being around my dad\nsleeps by the door every afternoon\neats\nslowly\neats\nquickly\nwhite as\nsnow\nlikes being around my mom\nA\nB\nblack\nfur\ndogs\nComparison Clues\nRead the paragraph closely. Note some of the\nwords used for comparison.\nMy parents own two dogs, namely Skye and Night. They are the same age, but Skye is bigger. Night has black fur, while Skye is as white as the snow. Both dogs like each other and enjoy playing together all the time. They share the same food, but Night eats quicker, and Skye can be a bit slow. Every morning, my parents take them out for a walk. Night and Skye sleep in the same spot by our door every afternoon. But Skye sleeps beside my mom in the evening, while Night likes hanging around with my dad.\nAn analogy is a special kind of comparison in which a second subject is introduced to explain or justify something about the main topic.\nAnalogy\nAn analogy usually focuses on a main subject, and an analogical subject is used to clarify, emphasize, or persuade.\nThe analogical subject is usually different from the main topic. It finds unexpected similarities in unlikely things.\nAnalogies are different from comparison.\nJust as the sword is a warrior’s weapon, the metaphorical pen is the weapon of a writer. Prominent writers significantly impact people as they can influence one’s thinking and actions. As a warrior would choose the sharpest sword in the most challenging battle, a writer selects specific, impactful words to convey their ideas and opinion. Flowing through their “pens” are expressions that linger on the readers they reach, who are called to act, reflect further, or initiate change. Like victorious warriors, the most successful writers are remembered for all ages.\nAnalogy\nIt is an analogy between a warrior's\nsword and a writer's pen.\nAnatomy of an Analogy\nWhat is the main topic?\nIt is about the power and influence of writers.\nApart from the pen and sword, what other analogies were used?\nOther analogies are sharp swords and impactful words, and warriors and writers.\nHow similar is the main topic from the analogical subject?\nThey're very similar. Both professions and their tools hold power and influence. By comparing writers to warriors, their societal impact is emphasized.\nCategories\nOrganize ideas and offer up examples that fit into each. It is up to you to decide on the criteria for classification, but you must be able to explain your reasoning.\nTo understand paragraphs developed through categories,\nhere are some guide questions.\nWhat is\nbeing organized?\nWhat are\nthe main classifications?\nHow is each category being described?\nWhat are the details or\nexplanations for each category?\nHow are these categories similar to/different from one another?\nWhat is important to remember\nabout these categories?\nThank\nYou!\nThis presentation template\nuses the following free fonts:\nYou can find these fonts online too.\nTITLES:\nC","cbCaiqONJnV0xaxF","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiqONJnV0xaxF","pptx",869107,1,"English","en",105,"# Lesson Outline\n## Comparison\n## Comparing with a Venn Diagram\n## Comparison Clues\n## Analogy\n## Anatomy of an Analogy\n## Categories","[{\"question\":\"How does understanding language organization help with informational texts?\",\"answer\":\"It helps readers determine the purpose and key ideas by understanding how writers organize language and link information in a paragraph or essay.\"},{\"question\":\"What is the difference between comparison and analogy?\",\"answer\":\"Comparison examines similarities or differences to reach a judgment.
