Fictional text is an imaginative literary word representing invented rather than actual persons, places, or events.
-
Nonfiction/informational text is factual and may be represented by detailed descriptions or examples; organization follows a logical pattern and may include textual aids.
-
Genre is a category used to classify literary and other works, usually by form, technique, or content. The novel, the short story, and the lyric poems are all examples of literary genres.
-
Fictional and informational text sets can be used for themes/units whenever possible.
-
Comparing is to identify similarities between two or more texts or text elements. Contrasting is to identify the differences.
-
Lists of text sets can be found on Start with a Book and Empowering Writers.

Text sets may be used to compare and contrast details in fictional and informational texts.
