37. What is an example of a topic vs. central idea for an informational text? Topic: School start times for middle and high school students Central Idea: There are many studies that have proven there are health benefits for students who have later school start times. CENTRAL IDEAS IN INFORMATIONAL TEXTS

38. It is often helpful to look at the topic sentence of each paragraph when determining the central idea and how it develops through the text. HOW DOES THE CENTRAL IDEA DEVELOP IN AN INFORMATIONAL TEXT? This is where you can find an outline of the supporting ideas that the writer is using to make their message clear or prove their overall point about the topic. When you start to select evidence to support your conclusion about the central idea, check the middle of the paragraphs for the best supporting details. That is often where the strongest commentary is located.

39. An inference is an informed conclusion based on the available information. MAKING INFERENCES FOR INFORMATIONAL TEXTS When determining the central idea of an informational text, it is important to go beyond what's on the page. Prior knowledge related to the topic is an important component of making inferences for informational texts.

40. COMPARE/CONTRAST IN INFORMATIONAL TEXTS at the same time, also, although, both, but, compared to, contrasted with, conversely, despite, in the same way, however, on the contrary, similarly, while Words that indicate compare/contrast: The purpose of this strategy is to make clear how two or more things are similar and different. When a writing compares and contrasts topics and concepts, this often leads to the reader having a deeper understanding.

41. COMPARE/CONTRAST EXAMPLE IN AN INFORMATIONAL TEXT Mammals and reptiles have many differences. Mammals have skin along with hair or fur to keep warm while reptiles have scales. Both have lungs, but mammals' respiratory systems are much more complex than reptiles. Unlike reptiles who lay eggs, mammals give birth to their young.

42. EXAMPLE OF AN ANALOGY IN AN INFORMATIONAL TEXT The circulatory system is like a large network of highways and roads that run through the body, delivering critical resources. The cells and organs work to maintain vessels and fight off infection, much like road maintenance workers repair the highways.

43. CATEGORIES IN INFORMATIONAL TEXTS Some informational texts, such as textbooks, will place information into groups to breakdown information and make it more manageable for the reader. A writer can also choose to use headings and hierarchies to create more specific subgroups. By using categories, it is easier for the reader to understand complex topics, and find specific details as needed.

44. As we start analyzing informational texts, remember these strategies to help identify central ideas and support your conclusions with evidence.
