1st Grade Literacy
Nonfiction Texts
In this unit of study, students will be actively involved in a variety of literacy activities to help improve their reading of nonfiction texts. The activities are center/rotation based. The face-to-face teacher directed learning includes guided reading groups. Groups are between 2 - 6 students and are based on guided reading levels. Students not in a guided reading group will be rotating to different literacy centers, including a technology center using RAZ Kids (a reading program with books at specific reading levels). In addition to the technology reading center, students also have a word work center, a parent led literacy activity center, a reading/listening center, and an art center. The centers and teacher directed learning aim to improve literacy skills (reading and writing) for nonfiction texts. The unit will last for 1 week and is one hour long for each day.
Students will be able to read a grade level text, the novel "The Outsiders". As they read they will have to cite information, make inferences and connections, summarize, compare different mediums (book and movie) and learn about the author and how her experiences shaped the novel. Students will also get to write persuasively and creatively during this unit.
