  1. AHSGE Reading Objective I-1 Identify Supporting Details Julie Mullins-Turner

  2. Supporting Details • Supporting details are statements, descriptions, and facts that support the main idea of a passage. • After you have identified the topic sentence and/or main idea of a passage, you should be able to recognize the supporting details that describe and explain it. • Any evidence given by the writer to support the main idea can be considered a supporting detail. Julie Mullins-Turner

  3. Read the following passage: The Toothbrush The toothbrush, an important tool that most of us take for granted, has a long history dating back to 15th-century China. The Chinese then made tiny brushes with the bristly hairs from cold-climate pigs. They used the pig-hair brushes to clean their teeth. Toothbrushes began to be mass-produced in the U.S. in 1885, and the first nylon-bristled brushes came onto the market in 1938. Later, in 1960, the electric toothbrush was invented. Today, we can buy toothbrushes with interchangeable heads, folding travel toothbrushes, and other modern dental equipment designed to help keep our teeth clean and our breath fresh.

  6. AHSGE Objective I-2 Determine sequence of events. Julie Mullins-Turner

  7. Sequence of Events • Sequence is the order in which ideas are arranged, actions are carried out, or events happen. • Writers use different methods of sequencing to help make ideas understandable to the reader. • For instructions, the most logical method of ordering may be step-by-step, or the exact order in which actions should be performed to achieve a specific outcome. • Informational writing (biographies, history books, instructional manuals, recipes) and narrative writing (novels, poems, short stories, plays) usually present events in chronological order. Julie Mullins-Turner

  8. Chronological Order • Chronological order arranges events in the order in which they happen in time. Writers often use dates and other time-order words that signal chronological order such as first, next, then, before, yesterday, at the same time, currently, later, finally, afterward, soon, and subsequently. • When analyzing a passage for sequence, pay attention to the order in which actions and events occur, or the order in which steps should be performed. Look for dates and words that are clues to sequence. Julie Mullins-Turner
