In an informational text, the author’s primary purpose is to inform readers. The author uses clear language that can be organized in a variety of structures, such as chronological or compare and contrast, to effectively present the information.

Think about an event that will be happening in your school or community that you’d like to inform others about. How would you present this information to students and others in your community? What is your topic? What organizational structures, word choice, print and graphics, or other elements could you use? Write a description of how you would present the information.
