Sharing Our Nonfiction Learning!

We have been reading nonfiction books and discovering all sorts of information that we never knew before. After noting on post-its and then sorting our post-its to help organize our thoughts we then reflect on the information we feel is most important and that we want to hold onto, to take from the books with us.

Think about one or several of the nonfiction books you have  read on a topic.

What learning have you held onto? What information will you take with you stored in your brain? What would you want to  share with others? What questions do you still have about the topic?

Share your learning in a reflection post so that the rest of us can learn too!

Get Ready for Nonfiction Reading!

We are beginning a unit of study on Nonfiction Reading. But what does that mean?

Well, we know the suffix non means not , so we know that nonfiction means not fiction . This means we will be reading and learning about all sorts of topics that are real. We’ll read informational texts, newspapers, magazines and journals. We can read about anything we want to know more about.

Think about what you already know about nonfiction texts. Write what you know about this genre.

Then write some of the topics you are interested in learning more about. Think  and write some of the questions about this topic that you want to find the answers to.

We can share what we learn right here on our blog!
