Informational texts show how things connect. History texts tell events in time order, often with dates.
Science texts often show causes and effects. Less sunlight in fall causes trees to stop making green chlorophyll, so the yellow and orange show through.
How-to texts give steps in order. Doing a step out of order can mess everything up!
