<p>We are beginning a unit of study on Nonfiction Reading. But what does that mean?</p>
<p>Well, we know the suffix <strong>non</strong> means <strong>not</strong> , so we know that <strong>nonfiction</strong> means <strong>not fiction</strong> . This means we will be reading and learning about all sorts of topics that are real. We&#8217;ll read informational texts, newspapers, magazines and journals. We can read about anything we want to know more about.</p>
<p>Think about what you already know about nonfiction texts. Write what you know about this genre.</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>We can share what we learn right here on our blog!</p>
