Non Fiction Texts (FAP)

Section A of the exam tests your ability to understand non-fiction (not made up) texts. As you read a text, you should take note of the following:

F - What format is the text written in? (website, letter, advert etc)
A - Which audience is it aimed at? (young people, old people, men, gardeners etc)
P - Why was the text written? What is its purpose? (Inform? Persuade? Advise? Describe)

Task: Find a non-fiction text online. Give a brief description of what it is and include a link. Then FAP the text!

If you need more help try clicking on the title of this post - it is a link to BBC Bitesize!
