What does this text structure unit cover?

It covers fiction and nonfiction, text features, and the main structures: sequence or chronology, compare and contrast, cause and effect, problem and solution, and description. By the end a child should name the structure of a passage and point to the signal words that show it.

How does RepeatWatch help with text structure?

Use Repeat one on the Flocabulary song to learn the five structures. Set an A–B loop on one passage and pause to find the signal words, such as because or however. Slow a passage to 0.75×, and save each structure on keys 1–9.
