‍‍‍**Notes and Additional Information**
Students are required to integrate visual and print information to clarify understanding. At this level, students should also be able to describe the author's reasoning by finding support within the text. Students are required to identify the most important points in a text. Then, they should be able to find similarities and differences in the points they have identified when reading about two texts that share the same topic.

Questions: How does the diagram/image help you understand what you are reading? Can you tell ways the author uses specific information in a text to help you understand? Can you find the reason why the author thinks that...? Can you find the reason why the author believes...? Look at these two texts about the same topic. What is the same about the points presented in these?
