We are diving into non-fiction texts galore in third grade!
We launched our unit with looking at the 5 text features authors use when
writing non-fiction. We had a lot of discussions about why authors would use
each of the different text structures. Students participated in an exciting
“Mystery Envelope” activity where they had to put on their detective hats, and
work collaboratively with their peers to determine which text structure the
author used in each envelope! Students also used devices with a QR reader and
sorted task cards under each text structure. They scanned the bar code to check
their work at the end of the activity J
We are learning tons of new information as we read non-fiction every day!
