Reading Non Fiction

For the past two weeks we have been learning about how to navigate non fiction texts.

Looking for different text features in Scholastic News

In addition to being able to identify the different features of non fiction, we must understanding how those text features help us learn more about a topic. ​

Next week the children are going to break into research groups to become experts on a topic. Each child picked their top three choices from 7 topics. The topics they chose from were: 

Wild Cats, Weather and Seasons, Reptiles and Amphibians, Polar Animals, Insects and Spiders, The Solar System, and Sharks.
