Introduction to Nonfiction and Informational Texts Mini-lesson

Created by

Students are usually pretty familiar with narrative nonfiction text structures...it's so similar to all the fiction they have been reading! I made this PowerPoint and note set when I saw the need to introduce my students to the structure of non-narrative nonfiction, also commonly referred to as informational texts. I use this as an informal texts unit introduction so that we can have intelligent class discussions about what we are reading. I hope you find it as beneficial as I do! If you like t

Free Scaffolded Reading & Research Notes: Help Students Independently Annotate!

Created by

Moore English

One of my year-long goals is for my students to reach a place where they can independently take and make meaningful notes and annotations while they read. Personally, I prefer to write in my books, but in the classroom, that's not always possible. With this in mind, I put together these 5 Square Notes sheets (kind of like graphic organizers) that walk students through annotation and/or note taking. Each sheet is set up in the 1-2-3-2-1 style, which is a pattern that's easy for students to rememb
