Description

Looking for a reading passage with LOTS of nonfiction text features? Use this handy, free text features activity to teach eight kinds of text features as students learn about one of the most fascinating objects in our solar system - the sun!

(If you love this freebie, check out the rest of my Solar System Nonfiction Reading Passages Bundle!)

This free nonfiction reading passage includes a variety of common text features, including a title, headings, a footnote, a diagram, a caption, and more. It also comes with a page of comprehension questions that go beyond identifying text features and help students think about why authors use captions and bold text, how to use the text features to locate information in the text, and how the text features relate to the author's purpose.

Here's what's included:

  • Full-page reading passage titled "5 Sensational Sun Facts"
  • Text features worksheet with analysis questions
  • Answer key for the worksheet

I hope your students love learning amazing facts about solar system while strengthening their nonfiction reading skills!
