Author's purpose in fiction presentations for Grade 5 students provide structured instruction that helps young readers understand why authors write stories and how they craft narratives to achieve specific goals. These educational presentations available through Wayground offer concept explanation through visual learning approaches, breaking down the three primary purposes of entertaining, informing, and persuading within fictional contexts. Students develop critical thinking skills as they analyze character development, plot structure, and literary devices that authors use to engage readers, teach lessons, or convey particular messages through storytelling.

These presentation collections offer extensive customization tools that enable teachers to differentiate instruction for diverse learning needs, adapting content complexity and pacing to match individual student requirements. The digital-first delivery format provides flexible implementation options for whole-class instruction, small group activities, or independent learning stations, supporting comprehensive lesson planning while offering targeted remediation for struggling readers and enrichment opportunities for advanced students to deepen their understanding of literary analysis and author's craft.
