Real-World Reading: Media and Messages

Reading Beyond Books

Language arts isn't just for novels! We read everywhere—on websites, in ads, in texts, and on social media.

Decoding Media Messages

  • Identify the purpose: Is it to inform, entertain, or sell something?
  • Spot persuasive techniques: Look for emotional words, catchy slogans, or bold claims.
  • Check for accuracy: Can you trust the information?

Everyday Applications

Reading skills help you make smart choices, avoid scams, and understand the world around you.

Examples

  • Recognizing persuasive words in a commercial.

  • Evaluating if a viral video is sharing real news or fake information.
