Learning by reading a story about traditional

foods.
Procedural Text
Anna’s Surprise is a realistic fiction story that
ends with a recipe. A recipe is an example of
procedural text. A procedural text has
instructions, or orders to follow, for completing
a task. It often includes:

• numbered steps, or a related sequence of

actions that tell you what to do first, next,
and last.
and
• headings and pictures to help you
understand the steps.
TURN TALK
Preview the recipe in Anna’s
Surprise. Name two types of text features in the text. Tell
a partner how you think the text features will help you
follow what the recipe says to do.

Check for Understanding

MY TURN Look back at the text to answer the
questi ons. Write the answers.
1. What part of the text is realistic fiction? What
part of the text is procedural, or has instructions
that tell how to do something?

The story with realistic characters and events is

realistic fiction. The recipe that follows the story
and tells how to make a smoothie is procedural.
2. Why do you think the author included the
smoothie recipe? What is the recipe’s first step?
It gives readers a chance to follow instructions to
make their own smoothie. The first step is to peel
the banana and cut it in half.
3. How do the children feel about sharing their
special foods with the class? How do you know?

They are proud and excited to share their

cultures and traditions. They look excited in the
pictures and sound excited in the text.
