Cito will focus on these 4 text purposes: 
  • Informative – Writing in which author’s purpose is to inform or explain the subject to the reader.
  • Persuasive – Writing that states the opinion of the writer and attempts to influence the reader.
  • Expressive- The writer wants to express his or her feelings, emotions (diary, poem etc.)
  • Narrative - The writer tells a story -fact or fiction- to entertain its reader
