Author’s PurposeAuthors have different reasons for

writing. They may write to persuade, inform, entertain, or express thoughts and feelings. They may have more than one purpose for writing.

You can draw conclusions from what the author writes to help you determine the purpose or purposes for writing.

Author’s PurposeYou can adjust the way you read

based on the author’s purpose. If the purpose is to entertain, you may want to read faster. If the purpose is to inform, you may want to read more slowly.

MoodThe atmosphere or feeling of a

written work is known as its mood. Types of moods include romantic, sad, eerie, and dreamlike.

Often the mood of a story is apparent by the author’s selection of setting and the description of the characters.

Descriptive details also help set the mood of a story.

PrefixesYou can sometimes use your

knowledge of prefixes to help them determine the meaning of an unknown word.

For example, the prefix re- means “again” or “back” and the prefix mis- means “wrong” or “bad.”

Add one of the prefixes to the following base words and write a definition for the new word.
