Author's Purpose Charts

Tuesday, July 26, 2011 118 comments
I wanted to make some charts for Author's Purpose that would appeal to my first graders.  I went with the P.I.E acronym (Persuade, Inform, Entertain) but took it to the next level by actually using Pie as the text examples.  I then added some Other Examples so the students would get additional visual examples of the different purposes.  I have these up on my Teachers Pay Teachers site for only $2.00!







***UPDATE - I had a few requests to add an additional, optional 4th poster for "Explain".  I have now included this in the download too.  

This is also available in a money saving bundle with my Reader's Tool Box:
