Spin And Identify

Worksheet Description

Make the exploration of text types engaging and interactive with the “Text Type Spin and Learn” worksheet. This fun and educational activity is designed to reinforce students’ understanding of different text types, enhancing their literacy skills.

Print the worksheet on sturdy cardstock, cut along the dotted line, and attach the pointer to the wheel using a brass paper fastener, creating a spinner. As you read short passages aloud to your students, they’ll spin the wheel and use the pointer to identify the text type of each passage: Narrative, Technical/Descriptive, Expository, or Persuasive.

This hands-on approach encourages students to actively recognize and categorize text types, fostering critical thinking about the purpose and style of various texts. It’s an interactive way to reinforce the concept of text types while making reading comprehension enjoyable.
