Key Concepts/  Text types are any pieces of writing that you read or create. This can be anything
Understandings to be from novels, newspaper reports and textbooks to recipes, movie reviews and
Developed: game instructions.
 Compare and Contrast is a text structure or pattern of organization where the
similarities and differences of two or more things are explored. It is important to
remember that with the compare and contrast text structure the text should be
discussing similarities and differences. If the text only discusses similarities, it is
only comparing. Likewise, if it only discusses ways that the things are different, it
is only contrasting. The text must do both to be considered compare and contrast.
 Example: Apples and oranges are both fruits, which means that they have seeds
inside of them. Each has a skin, but orange skins are thick and easy to peel.
Apple skins are thinner and do not peel easily. Oranges also contain more acid
than apples, but both fruits are delicious.
Identifying when the writer is comparing and contrasting is usually not difficult
because the speaker will bounce back and forth between two subjects and this
pattern is generally pretty easy to recognize.  However, here are some signal
words that may indicate that the text is written using the compare and contrast
organizational pattern: like, unlike, both, neither, similar, and different.

A compare-and –contrast text type is one in which the similarities and differences of two
subjects- persons, places, events, or objects – are presented and organized logically.
