More non-fiction texts

Next find a range, i.e. variety, of leaflets, maybe in magazines or ones that come through the letterbox!
This time you are to work on comparing three of them.
First:
1     Identify the purpose of the leaflets. Explain how you know e.g. what language gives you clues  or is there anything else that tells you? Write your answers in sentences e.g. "Text A is written to ..................... because the author uses words or phrases like................................. Whereas Text B is ........................"
2     List four things you learn from each leaflet.
3     What are the authors' points of view? How do you know?
4     Look at presentational devices - Compare the use of these devices, what they are and how they are used to achieve their purposes.

Note that if you do this piece of work you will need to hand in the texts you found too!
