Nonfiction Readers Read with Power!

Nonfiction readers are learning how to read nonfiction texts with power.  Readers have discussed what it means to read nonfiction text.  We understand that nonfiction text is teaching us and that it is our job to be learning from the text.  We discussed this and decided that to read with power and learn from text we must:
  • Open our mental file on the text topic and think about what we already know
  • Be sit up and pay attention kind of readers
  • Use text features like headings, captions, and pictures
  • Connect the pictures and captions with what we have read in the text
  • Think about what we are reading while we are reading it
  • React to our reading and learning
Check out these pictures of partners reading with power!
