Finding Evidence Kit - Author's Purpose

Students identify and explore author’s purpose in fiction and nonfiction passages—and use text evidence to support their thinking! Perfect for small groups or the entire class, the hands-on kit comes with a whole-group lesson card featuring sample texts for teachers to introduce author’s purpose, 6 each of 4 different reading passage cards in 4 activity folders, plus 6 write & wipe activity mats. After reviewing the 3-step instructions, kids simply use an activity mat to write the purpose of the text and provide supporting evidence…then refer to the answers on the back of the folder to check their work! Folders measure 9 1/4" x 11 5/8". Write & wipe markers sold separately.
