At the conclusion of our unit about "Interpreting Characters" and analyzing fiction, each student made a special bookmark which contained the names of the books they've read and some of the messages, themes, and lessons of those books. Students did a great job with this unit and with the "intense" reading it involved. Their new adventure has begun.....as they enter the world of non-fiction......and study how to navigate it with wisdom, awareness, and a knowledge of the structures of non-fiction text. How can we take charge of non-fiction text, and how can we get the most from it?
