This unit involves learning how to research and write an informative Work
Although informative writing does not share personal stories or opinions, most writers enjoy researching and writing about topics that interest them. If you look back at your narrative work you will see that several potential Informative topics are related to the story you told in that work. The worksheet below will help you review your narrative work so that you can identify some potential topics for your informative work
What is Informative Writing?
Informative writing explains, informs, and describes. 
Informative writing does not share personal stories or personal opinions. 
It shares information objectively. 
Your job as a writer is to educate yourself with accurate and reliable information and then share that information in your work
You are probably already familiar with informative writing. It is all around us every day.
Think of:
instruction sheets or how-to guides, like this one on lawn management in Oklahoma City,
articles that explain concepts like Sustainable Agriculture,
information about programs like conversation efforts at the Oklahoma City Zoo, or
informative news articles like this one: 76-days Under Water, Florida Professor Breaks World Record for Science.
