OpenStudy (gabbyalicorn):

Hi there, HootHoot! So lets define what a signal word is & a phrase, shall we? Signal Words. In order to be able to lead your reader in the direction you want to go, you will have to use strong transitions in your writing. A phrase is small group of words standing together as a conceptual unit, typically forming a component of a clause.

In a nutshell a signal word is describing. Let me give you some quick examples... Bugs bunny is a rabbit, in addition, he says the catch phrase "What's up Doc?" The new Star Wars Movie: The Force awakens is a major event that everyone cannot wait to see. I am here.

OpenStudy (gabbyalicorn):

Please be patient. :)

OpenStudy (gabbyalicorn):

Text structure refers to how the information within a written text is organized. This strategy helps students understand that a text might present a main idea and details; a cause and then its effects; and/or different views of a topic.

OpenStudy (gabbyalicorn):

Signal words and phrases determine the text structure because it creates mood and tone. Without it the sentence would be boring. Yes, I would like a medal.
