Flavor.... One small word but so there are so many options when it comes to flavor. You can go to the store and get just about any flavor of ice cream these days. It really depends on your mood which one stands out to you. Well, in Readers Workshop this week we learned there are MANY flavors of books. In reading, fiction and nonfiction are like the chocolate and vanilla. However, we learned this week there are many more!
Students were exposed to the variety of genres under each fiction and nonfiction. For example, fiction can be broken down to fantasy, realistic fiction, science fiction, historical fiction, mystery. Nonfiction can be broken down into information, autobiography, and biography. Poetry is a special genre of its own though. During the next week we will dip into these flavors more to really figure out which flavor suits us as we may have not tried them all. Students are recommended to make sure they are getting a variety of these flavors each week to make sure they don't get bored. Perhaps this week they may find they have a new favorite.......
Practice your new reading skills!
