Generalize



A generalization is a broad statement or
rule that applies to many examples.
A clue word such as all, most, always,
usually, or generally signals that an author
is making a generalization.
Some generalizations are valid, which
means that they are supported by facts or
details. Some are faulty, which means that
they are not supported.
Imagery/Sensory Words



Imagery, or sensory language, is the use of
words that describe how things look, sound,
smell, taste, or feel. Writers use imagery to
help give readers a strong mental picture.
Imagery helps readers understand the
setting, mood, characters, and action in a
story.
When reading, note the words that help you
see, smell, hear, taste, or feel what is
happening.

A textbook is a book used in the study of

These books are usually organized into
units or chapters.
The text may be organized under headings
and subheadings.
Often, they include graphics such as

and maps that present information
visually.

Some books also include other features
such as chapter previews and summaries,
