Reading Nonfiction







We are working on our "Navigating Nonfiction" reading unit. Being able to read and use non-fiction text is an important life skill students will need to build on in later grades. We work on building the foundation for reading and using informational texts in first grade. This week we have discussed WHY we read nonfiction and now we are discovering HOW! Today students learned about some common nonfiction text features: table of contents, glossary, index, bold words, headings, labels, and diagrams. Students worked in partners to identify text features in their own books!
