Using Expository Text in the Secondary Classroom Julia Ann Bonner Grand Canyon University Adolescent Literacy SED-535 Professor Mark Rowicki July 24, 2013 Using Expository Text in the Secondary Classroom The purpose of this paper is to define expository text and review some of the possible advantages and disadvantages of using expository text within middle school content area classrooms and why it’s important to our students reading comprehension now and in all their future academic and career endeavors. The paper will also explore five ways in which expository text is used to promote and increase the student’s comprehension skills in reading and provides examples of how different graphic organizers may be used with various expository texts. Definition Expository text is a form of writing whereby the main purpose is usually to provide information and facts in the most concise and logical way possible.

Expository text provides an explanation of concepts and attempts not only to inform, but to persuade and explain concepts in an orderly and clear manner, often while connecting the relationships between ideas.
