Text Structure Matters
• Authors make intentional decisions about how to structure a text based on their purpose and audience and the meaning they want to convey.
• When readers know what kind of structure to expect, it helps them connect to and remember what they’ve read better.
• It gives readers clues as to what is most important in the text.
• It helps readers summarize the text.
