Description
Did you know? Research suggests reading comprehension increases when students understand text structures (the way authors organize their writing). Additionally, other comprehension-based skills such as summarizing, inferring, elaborating, and applying are also enhanced.
Here's a simple and fun way to assess what your kids know about text structures!
Students read different mini paragraphs about tacos, identifying the structure used to write each one. Then they color in the images according to their answers.
Structures used: description, cause and effect, sequence and order, compare and contrast, problem and solution.
This activity is super versatile. Use it:
- as a review
- as a quick assessment
- for re-teach/remediation
- in a reading center
- on sub days

- as homework
Easy enough to self-grade simply by comparing their colored-in design to your answer key!
