Most of the reading that we do in real life is non-fiction although most classroom programs focus mainly on reading fiction materials.
Correct this imbalance and incorporate the 7 non-fiction stories found in this resource to develop and strengthen inquiry and research skills. The ability to read and understand non-fiction is a vital skill for young children as they progress toward inquiry skills and research.
The three levels of reading material allow students who are below, at, or above grade level to participate in the activities.
