2) Cause and Effect: Cause and effect charts sort out the difference between the root or
cause of the problem and the branches or effects of that problem.
3) Problem and Solution: Figure out the meaning or purpose of a piece by labeling what
the problem is and what the solution is. If there is not a solution in the text offer an idea
of your own.
4) Type of Nonfiction Organizer: Figure out the type of nonfiction a text is by looking at how
the text uses language to give you information. Does it sound like a story? Then it might be
Narrative Nonfiction. Is it all facts? Then it might be Expository Nonfiction. Is it trying to get you
to believe something? Then it might be Persuasive Nonfiction. Use text evidence to support.
