Hello. Okay, see home. It was some summarizing comprehension, wasn't it? Yes. Okay, I'm. Going to get the mark scheme up. The observer, where are you? Okay, write of love for this story. When Amrit meets a strange man, what if what is she going to do? Yeah, that's fine. Just make sure. Yeah, that's fine. What is she gonna do? Sometimes your s's look like f's.

Those so it should be Amit first saw the figure, then you told the security team about the figure, Oh, she sorry, then drew the curtains, then the figure back into Amrit, then the figure talks to Amrit, such as those ones swapped around we've got Yeah, Yeah, Yeah Yeah that's good. Yeah. Yeah, very good. Well done a. Okay. See what we are on today. So on lesson ten, exploring the purpose, audience and structure of a text. So first it says, understanding why a text was written and who it was written for. When you are asked about the purpose of a text, you need to consider several things, the text type, the audience and the structure of the text. So starting with purpose says in many comprehension tests, particularly nonfiction texts, there will be a question about the purpose of the text. When answering these, you need to think about why the text has been written. So here we have like some helpful information about different kinds of purposes. So for example, like an informative text or a persuasive text, you want to read what they say. Informative informs tech. Tags provided us with information. Informatives text are based on facts and evidence from research. Persuasuasive text provide us with information so that we are persuaded to take their point of view. Persuadsive sive text are made of facts and opinions. Good. So here we have another table as well that kind of shows, you know different types of text and usually their kind of general purpose. Can you read through these as well for me and Rico? Story to provide entertainment some stories, such as fables, teach a moral or ethical lesson poventry to provide entertainment or evoke an emotional response. Explanation text to give detailed information on a particular topic. Construction text. To give details, the pothe guidance about how to mido or make something. Speech do you want please away depending on on text? Later to share information, to complain, all two positive ending on the contest place grito int address no form play tv show or no. Audience. So when we think about the audience of a text, this is basically like the reader who you know who is going to be reading it. And a good writer will be thinking about, you know, a particular reader when they are writing because you know, it changes how you write something. If you know who you're expecting to be reading it, the type of language use will help to work out who the audience of the text is. Do want you to read the table for me? More forlanguages just that the audience is so not someone familiar to the writer, or that the writing has a serious purpose. Informal language, I just that the reader is well known to write the Young child, the language has a more friendly or relaxed view, still more complex, some language may use younger audience, you know, and information text were transmitted. Ting in reforclearly is the purpose of the text. Complex language is often used. Technical writing, well, the audience is already a well plus or expert in the topic. It a scientific Journal, this or confichas largely use literal language, but narrative and descriptive writing use bruatory language to help the reader build a vivid picture of an emerstory or place. Good. This list doesn't contain every type of language, and there are some exceptions. Like, for example, in persuasive speech, figurative language may be used to help the listener engage with the topic and understand the speaker's point of view more deeply. So, you know that's like similars and metaphors and things like that. Then we go on to structure. So the structure of the text refers to the order and layout of the information. When thinking about the purpose of a text, consider what it looks like and how it's been put together. So some features and their functions are listed on the next slide. Very difficult to read that. I'll help you with this one. So for example, like for nonfiction text structures, you know. We might be using words like, for example, for instance, specifically using sequencing and ordering words, compound and contrasting words, showing cause and effect, showing a problem and giving the solution, those kind of things. But also here we have different features as well that will affect structure. Could you read for me. Perhaps ps, it's separate different topics or groups of information, and sorry, they are use the separate different parts of the plot subheadings to help a reader navigate the text and indicate what each section is going to be about. This is important in novfuture, as the reader may not be to read the whole text in order that solit to draw attention to key information. Also, how much information? But I want to have a key point of facts, captions to give more detail iled information or background about the picture or diagram content. Help. We don't navigate the text. Clothey help to give the verditions of keywords. Good. So in addition to these more obvious physical structured features in fiction, think about features that might add to the structure. For example, cliffhanger, you know, encouraging the reader to read on, adding tension, short sentences or paragraph to slow the action down and draw attention to a particular event. Flashback gives background to the main story, repetition, emphasizing a particular event or characteristic. All of these things can add to the structure. Okay, so so to read the following short extract and decide what the purpose of the text is. So could you read the black writing for me underneath dinknow? He brsmith age sin with this, an extraordinary event. It was like anything he seen before as he was circling home from school. Brian, who lives on North Street, lit his a large gap in the hedge outside his neighb's house when he stopped his article cle, and looks through the hole. It's Donish about what he so, Oh, a gabable key. A Jabra walk maybe. So it says, what is the purpose of the text? Hang on. So it says, is it reporting what has happened, discussing whether children spend too much time in front of screens or persuading people to take up ice skating, reporting what has happened? No, very silly multiple choices there, isn't it? But if we wanted to use those words that Weseen earlier in the in the table, you know like this is kind of to entertain, isn't it? And maybe to scare that kind of thing, we're not learning any new information. You know we're not like learning facts here or being persuaded to do anything. It's an entertaining text, isn't it? Okay, then we have the next one. Could you read the black writing for me? John and Sarah, look to get you phone. The swings were your favorite place to play every Saturday. They went to the playground, join, went on the blue swing. Sarah went on the wriwing. Sometimes they went on the Green side too. So how you know this text was written for Young children? I know the following text was written for Young children because it uses this very simple language, very simple language, simple sentences, doesn't it? You know, short, simple sentences as well? Yeah, very good. So it says it has children as characters. The sentences are simple in structure and the vocabulary is simple. The topic is going to a park, which is a children's activity. It contains Soller words as well, so words that they will recognize, se and know. Okay, next one, could you read the black pofor me? To cook, grow dinner. You need to prehede he often to just mark for, put the meat and Rosing tin in the oven, prepare the vegetable, lay the table, let the meat rest for 20 minutes after cooking. Good. So how do you know that this is an instructional text? This is an instructional text because it has steps. Mm, good. We've got the numbered steps, haven't we? What else? You would definitely. And it has how to in the title? Yeah, good. And what about the words that are used in these? What types of sentences are these? Simple? Yeah. But I mean, like is it an exclamation, a question, a command? A command Yeah command because they're all starting with these imperatives, these bossy verbs, Yeah Preheat, put, pair, lay. These are also a big clue that robot instructions as well. So how next one? Oh Yeah, sorry, the number steps, specific details, comparative verbs. Yeah, good. Okay. Black writing to read for me. Exercise is the most important way to keep healthy. Everyone one knows to look at our bodies. We need to move them regularly. What was the last time really for Hoby fast? If you I remember, then perhaps you need to consider doing, think some x exercise. Try swimming, running or walking. Choose one. Habit you you enjoy and perhaps do you listen some friends, once you get into habit, you wonder how you ever got what was our exercise before. You won't regret it. Okay. You're going to answer this one in a written sentence for me this time. So can you give me a written answer in rike? What's the purpose of this text and how do you know? To persuade and it says, how do you know? So you need to say, I know this because blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, but with words instead of blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Okay. But keep going. Just because something introduces facts, doesn't that mean it's going to persuade? Like it could be just to inform? If it's introducing facts, what is it it's doing that's persuading you or trying to persuade you? Okay, use of this text is to persuade people because it introduces facts and uses persuasive language and introduces benefits. Okay, that's good. I like that. I like about the facts and the benefits. Try not to say it uses persuasive language. That's a bit general. Try to say what persuasive language it's using. You know, it uses persuasive language like rhetorical questions and. Direct address. Because it uses you won't regret it. Yeah so try and give specific examples rather than just saying, Oh, it uses this language. It's a much better way of doing it. Okay, we'll have a look at the model answer, if there is one. Yeah, so it says the purpose of this text is to persuade people to exercise. It has persuasive sentence starters. Everyone knows it uses rhetorical questions and it appeals directly to the reader. You and it uses lists of three. So it's given lots of different reasons there. That's the end. No, we'll just move on to the next lesson. Maybe, perhaps I can find a little audience, purpose, task, I think. Hang on. Where is it? Where is it? Where is it? Where is it? Sorry, I'm just going to find this being little slow. Here we go. Okay. So each picture, I want you to tell me of each text, the audience and the purpose. Don't think too much about what the writing is saying. You won't be able to read all the writing. It's too small. We're thinking more about generally that kind of text, what it is for. Okay. So for example. This one, here it is. The audience would be a hang on. I wonder if I could find a better example of this. I know we have one, but where is it? We'll just do one of these for now. Ask, I'm trying to find this. So for example, there's an example look of the first one. Could you have a go for me at this one? And. This one. What have I done? Like just spspin, I don't know, disappeared and I can't get it back either. There you go. Okay to instruct to instruct Yeah Yeah I think this one might be more to inform it's not wouldn't quite be instructions or maybe there would be some instructions but also some information this one definitely instructions of the different steps. Okay, good. Right? We will just move on to lesson eleven. I'm going to be looking at retrieval reading skills. So retrieving and presenting information from a fiction or nonfiction text to answer a specific question. So in most comprehension exercises, the simpler questions ask you to retrieve. To retrieve just means to find something. So you're retrieving or finding specific information. And they are often worth one or two Marks. They usually focus on the place, time, ying people and events in the text. And answering this type of question usually involves writing down a word or a phrase from the passage. So for example, you might see something like who was outside the window? What time of year was it when the accident happened, and what was the board boy doing? Which boy? These kind of questions. So we've noticed the important words are the who, what, where, when, which. They are the retrieval questions. Can you read what it says in this slide for me? You are if the question. Who is eating your authorshould replace a word who with the name of the character. For example, Ahmed is eating Q2. If the question asks, when did a call breakdown? 好，your answer should begin with. Subject and end with the answer. For example, the car broke down on Saturday morning. Q3 that the question asks one was from eating. You should rearrange the question to make an English statement. For example, mog was eating a banana. Good. So when you're answering information retrieval questions, there was a simple pattern that you should follow. So for example, what caused the boy to fall off his bike? Can here's the text. As the boy zoomed down the hill, he felt the wind in his hair and the cool air on his face. He wanted the moment to last forever. Suddenly, he caught sight of something out of the corner of his caught coma that should be corner of his eye. He looked over his shoulder to see what it was. And straight iaway, he lost his balance and fell off his bike. So we know the boy fell off his bike because he looked over his shoulder and lost his balance. What we're looking for is the keywords, you know, either bike or fell off or something. All of this information is not useful thful to us. You know what he's feeling in his hair in otherface. Why? So for spibecause you he looked over his shoulder, lost his balance. Exactly. Yeah, that's the bit of information that we need. So it says the last sentence is where you find the words fell off his bike. So this should tell you the answers to the question lies within this sentence all nearby. So that's kind of our scanning skills. Sometimes the question is made slightly more difficult because the word used in the question and the word used in the text might be different, but they will mean the same thing. So for example, the word bicycle or cycle might be used in the passage, but the word bike used in the question, they're just doing that to make it a bit trickier. Another example is if you were asked what the weather was like, you might look for different weather words, like rain, wind, storm, even though the precise word weather might not be finyou know you're looking for different related words. Okay. I think I'm going to read some things. So can you start this first part of the extract for me? Lee had gone a charge because of her feet. This was not the best reason for entering a church. But Ali was her middle aged and her fear was hurting her. They hurting her badly. It was a beautiful Sunny day in June. And Ellie and her friend Sigrid, who was as thas Ellie was, probably has set out all live from Vienna in the little trail who talked, which took them up about it so they could climb up to the top of a key called the door, her spiite called a dreaddot next bit. What's happening? What's happening there? Going until the mountains on the last Sunday of every month, which was their day off. Changing the aprons for darthose are filling the Roxas Lamy sandwiches and glasses or plump triso. How on they could go to talk, they admire the view was now getting hungry. How they refreshed their souls after the hard work they did all week, cleaning and cooking and shopping and scrubbing with the professors who employed them and who were all fusy about has been housing. Sing order the. Allie was a couand, he grew was a housetmaid, and they have been friends for many years. And lie went into the church because she had a. So what I want you to do is you're going to highlight on the text for me where you can retrieve, find the answer Yeah, for each question. Gen, just let me sort it out on the board first. Okay, and Egon to the feet. Sit out from Vienna time of year besunny day. Yeah, very good. Okay, a helpful thing here. It just says sometimes it might tell you to write it in your own words. And if it does, then obviously you shouldn't copy directly from the text. You should write it out in your own words obviously. Right. We will just finish with some retrievevor questions then his lessons goes so quick or too short. So let me quickly get some the question up. Okay. We'll start by reading the text for me in Rico. Yes, called the racks of new town use how the sleepy is how. Hung upon the Sten shoore, although his sleeping eyes was once very noisy or made noise, friends, the place was so offsive with them, and I know you wanted to live there. There wasn't a bar, a room or cupboard. That's the right youeaten the way too. The rats are known on every Teese and bacco shoeven. The wooden barrels were a wine of embear. However, ward does say the rest will show holding in barrel and then the cells down into the liquid while holding onto another red tail. However, the, the rest is the thing. Even worse, the squthree curry and scries so loudly that the pein utown couldn't hear themselves think, because get the window of sleep, our mother across the town have to keep watch over her baby's cradle all night long to solve a big, ugly raat from running across the poor baby's face. Yeah. Okay. If you can answer these questions on here for me, these are all retrieval so that all the answers are in the text. So first one's a multiple choice. What were the people of Newtown not able to do? So we got. Couldn't hear themselves think, Yeah. Yeah. Yeah Yeah, good last one then down here was hiding or false table. Okay. Very good. Okay, right. Let me just set your homework then in Rico and to get you another one of those to do. Okay. So I've given you a short text and then there's four questions to answer after. All on retrieval questions. Okay, right, well done and Rico, good work getting through two lessons today. Yeah two whole lesson objectives. I'll see you next week. Yeah hope you enjoy your weekend. Thank you very much. Bye.
