The first graders have spent the last two weeks digging in to non-fiction reading! We have learned how to distinguish between fiction and nonfiction; we have learned about the many text features, such as, table of contents, labels, headings, diagrams, photographs, captions, glossary, etc.; we have learned how to use a teaching voice when reading nonfiction; we have learned how to find the BIG IDEA and give evidence (details) to support it; we have learned how to retell what we learn from reading nonfiction using our hand! That's a lot of learning! We will continue this learning over the coming weeks!
