Purpose and tones words !

Wednesday, 29^th February 2012

Today was my seconds last class for Bel 260 :'(

Today we learnt about authors’ purpose and the tone words. 

 Important reasons for author's to write:

 Entertain

The author tells a story that describes something or someone in an interesting ways

Persuade

The author tries to change our opinion on a topic by appealing to our emotions.

Instruct

The author will explain or teach something in the story that the reader doesn’t know.  The author provides knowledge to the reader.

Describe

Authors often describe to support other purposes in writing. They use it to create a character, set a mood or envision a scene.
