Non-Fiction Focus in Reading and Writing

Right now in first grade we are learning about Non Fiction text features. We have been reading and writing about penguins and Dr. Martin Luther King this week. Soon we will be learning about whales! We have been discussing the differences between fiction/non fiction and stories/informational text. We have also been looking at descriptive writing and pulling out details about what we are reading.

Thanks for checking out the blog to see what we've been up to. Also, you might have heard from the students we got a SMART board! It is super exciting and it will be up and running soon!

Take Care!
