Students used nonfiction text to explore and learn about the purpose of a diagram and a label. Students found these features in text and then documented their learning in their nonfiction convention notebook. Each day for the next few weeks, we'll be studying different features of nonfiction. Learning about these features helps readers understand the text and navigate through the complexities found in this style of text. INQUIRE with your child what purpose a diagram and its labels serve. What diagram did they find in their text?
Later this afternoon, during writer's workshop, students connected what they did in the morning to their all about books. Students added a "parts of" page to show the different parts of something using a diagram and labels in their all about books.
