Nonfiction in Focus
A Comprehensive Framework for Helping Students Become Independent Readers and Writers of Nonfiction, K6
By Janice V. Kristo
Weave Nonfiction Across Language Arts!
With this book, children¹s literature experts Janice Kristo and Rosemary Bamford not only show teachers how to choose nonfiction wisely, but how to teach it wisely. They provide a framework for weaving nonfiction across the language arts block, beginning with practices that require heavy support of students (such as instructional read aloud and modeled writing) and moving toward ones that don¹t (such as independent inquiry workshop). The result? Students become confident, capable readers and writers of the genre.
