Nonfiction

We recently finished a reading unit on Nonfiction Text. During this unit the students learned what nonfiction text is and how to identify whether a book is nonfiction. 

First, the students learned about the roles of a nonfiction author and illustrator.

Next, the students learned about nonfiction features.

After each mini lesson, the students looked for the focus feature and when they found it shared with their small group. At the end of the lesson, students shared their findings with the whole group.

The students really enjoyed this unit and are continuing to share when they find a nonfiction text feature.
