Explicit and Implicit Information

Explicit Information

I can use evidence from the text so that I can defend my explicitinformation I found.

Explicit Information:

• Explicit information is any idea that is stated.

• With explicit information, you can see the text explained in the reading.

• If you are looking for explicit information it is directly in the text.

Example of explicit text

"What did martin luther king jr do to change unjust laws?"

In the text it says he gave speeches and organized peaceful protests.
