E27: Teacher Certification Podcast | FTCE | Reading | Identifying the Author's Tone in a Text In today’s episode, I’ll be talking about the FTCE General Knowledge Reading Subtest. This is part 6 of a multi-series review of what YOU need to know to pass the Reading section of the GK. Today we are going to talk about TONE- this has to do with analyzing the specific word choices in a way that reveals the author’s attitude. Yeah, that’s right - I said attitude! And what I mean by that is that the writer’s mood and feelings are conveyed through the types of words they use in their writing. Today I will teach you how to become a TONE Detective when reading a text or passage.
