    Properties of a Well-Written Text

    • A well-written text is organized logically. Clear and readable. Physical format aids readability (headings, subheadings, bullet points, emphasis). Signal words (textual cues) help with linear narration, questions, and answers. A framework helps, like a beginning, thesis statement, middle (supporting details), and an end (conclusion, summary, final message).

    • Unity refers to the sub-points and supporting details being relevant to the text's theme or idea.
