1. REFLECTION ABOUT TEXT
INFORMATION
We learned that text information is a non-fiction writing, written with the
intention of informing the reader about a specific topic. It is typically found in
magazines, science or history books, autobiographies and instructional manual. They
are written using special text features that allow the reader to easily find key
information and understand the main topic.
Its primary purpose is to inform the readers about the natural or social world.
Furthermore, it has specialized language characteristics such as general nouns and
timeless verbs that are not common in other genres. Some of the characteristics of
text information include facts and text features such as table of contents, pictures,
captions, bold and print, and glossary. These characteristics help the readers find
information, add information presented in text, call the readers attention to
important words and explain what words mean.
We also learned that the importance of text information are in the way that it
can allows students to develop sophisticated comprehension skills, build critical
content knowledge and vocabulary, and apply higher order thinking skills. And the
value of text information and media include new information, varying formats and
create analytical thinking and it can give motivation to everyone.
