Style, Language and Images- 

Making brochures the persuade & inform

在 6-10 年级，学生通过制作小册子来探索非小说阅读和写作，以告知观众将他们正在阅读的文学作品与更广泛的社区联系起来的主题。在英语中，学生会熟悉各种各样的文本和读者可能会发现的各种格式，例如海报、小册子或报告。作家出于特定目的使用这些格式的不同类型的写作。学生两人一组或单独收集研究主题的信息，并从他们正在阅读的文学文本中收集证据，并展示这些信息，以使用要点注释、图像、布局、艺术、标题和副标题来告知读者，并仔细选择想法他们想专注于。学生必须确定哪些信息是相关的，必须确定主要观点，并且必须总结或记下这些观点。想法以某种方式呈现以吸引观众并在视觉上吸引人。学生们从彼此的小册子中吸取了他们喜欢的想法。在课堂上，学生们讨论了如何使用小册子格式来产生效果和在某些情况下，以及如何使用更简洁的语言来说服读者。

In grades 6-10 students explored nonfiction reading and writing by creating brochures to inform an audience on a topic connecting the literature they were reading to the wider community. In English students become familiar with a wide variety of texts and the various formats readers may find them such as a poster, brochures, or reports. Writers use different types of writing in these formats for specific purposes. Students worked in pairs or individually gathering information from researching a topic and gathering evidence from the literary texts they were reading and presenting this information to inform readers using bullet point notes, images, layout, art, headings & sub headings, and carefully selecting what ideas they wanted to focus on. Students had to determine what information was relevant, had to identify main ideas, and had to summarize or put into note form these ideas. Ideas were presented in a certain way to engage an audience and be visually appealing. Students learned from each other’s brochures incorporating ideas they liked. In class students discussed how the brochure format was used for effect and in certain contexts and how its use of more succinct language could be persuasive for readers.
