How do you say "writing piece"?

Question

I'm a second grade teacher teaching escritura narrativa y escritura informativa/expositiva.
I'm explaining that escritura narrativa are stories (cuentos). How would I say that escritura informativa is writing pieces? Would I call them obras de escritura? Is there a better way to say it?

Answer 1

Please, explain better what's "writing pieces"

¡Jajaja! I don't know that term either. And my English is fluent--but very American. - Daniela2041, Sep 23, 2015

Answer 2

Escritura informativa o expositiva. Un tipo de escritura que su objetivo es solo para informar. No la llamaría cuentos. Como la llamaría?

Answer 3

I remember of my school times that there exist 4 type of texts.

Texto descriptivo: It descrives a place or an object or a person as it is.

Texto narrativo: It is as you has descrive it.

Texto argumentativo:  It gives arguments in favour or against a tesis

Texto expositivo: It exposes an object or a situation in a neutral way.

I am not very sure about this . many years have passed.

I have write texto...... you can change it for escritura ......(a). the first one is the consecuence of the second one.

Answer 4

Thank you! You are right txelis. We are only studying two type of texts in second grade.

Answer 5

Ah, OK.

To me and it seems that Daniela also thinks the same, an informative writing is what a descriptive writing is, too. Both are the same.

And yes, a piece of writing is an "obra" (works)

A veces usamos la palabra "trozo" de literatura--o algo por el estilo. - Daniela2041, Sep 24, 2015
