 +At every grade level you should teach students to annotate for text structure.
 +
 +In the image of the board above you see the five main types of text structure taught in academic settings:
 +
 +  * Chronological 
 +  * Compare and Contrast
 +  * Sequential
 +  * Expository
 +  * Cause and Effect
 +
 +As you annotate you want to focus on signal words. These transition words signal to the reader both the type of text and the organization of the text. Writers use them to signal a new idea or detail. So in reading we often refer to the words as "signals" and in writing "transition" words"
 +
 +  * Chronological-First,Second, last, Next, Finally
 +  * Compare and Contrast-Likewise, In Contrast, Similarly,
 +  * Expository-in this case, as an example, to demonstrate, to illustrate
 +  * Sequential-after, eventually, previously, next
 +  * Cause and Effect-and so consequently,therefore, as a consequence
