What’s the purpose?
Before we start… Answer the following question. Why do people create?
What is author’s purpose? The author’s purpose is the reason the author wrote something. It is MORE than simply to inform, entertain, or persuade.
Why do peoplecreate? Everything you see is created for a reason. Understanding why something was created is an important part of interpreting it. For example, look at this website. This article gives INFORMATION about how to fix the problem of frizzy hair. The purpose of the article, though, goes deeper than giving information. It was created to give you a sense of security about the hair salon so you will be PERSUADED to spend your money for their services.
How do I interpret the author’s purpose? You must learn to ask questions when reading. What is the author trying to say? What does the author want me to do with this? How does this make me feel? What questions do I have about this information? How do my feelings and questions affect my interpretation of the information?
Why was this created? Look at this photograph. Consider the answers to the previous questions. Record them on a graphic organizer.
Take a Look…
Why was this created? Let’s try this together. Watch this video. As you watch the video, we will discuss what you see. I will record the responses on our class graphic organizer.
Take a Look…
Your Turn… You are going to look at this photo. Record your answers to the guiding questions on your graphic organizer. You will then compare your comments to your partner’s comments. Through discussion, develop an answer to the question, “Why was this created?” and be prepared to share with the class.
Exit Slip… Why is it important to consider why people create their works?
