This worksheet is designed to help students learn and practice identifying different text features. Text features are elements like tables of contents, indexes, glossaries, diagrams, charts, captions, and headings. These features help readers navigate and understand the information presented in a text.
The purpose of this worksheet is to familiarize students with these features and their functions, enabling them to locate and comprehend information more effectively. By practicing identifying these features, students can become more proficient readers and researchers.
Specifically, this worksheet provides two pages:
- Page 1 presents a variety of unlabeled text features taken from different sources. Students are tasked with identifying each feature using the provided word bank. This page assesses their ability to recognize and name the features based on their visual appearance and context.
- Page 2 serves as an answer key, revealing the correct labels for each text feature on Page 1. This allows students to check their answers, learn from any mistakes, and reinforce their understanding of the features.
By completing this worksheet, students will gain a deeper understanding of how text features contribute to the organization and comprehension of written materials. This knowledge will equip them with valuable skills for navigating various texts throughout their academic and personal lives.
