How to Use this Resource:
-
Back-to-School Icebreaker: kick off the school year with a fun and informative activity. Have your students complete their flap books as a way to introduce themselves to the class. To add an element of mystery, collect the flap books and randomly distribute them. Challenge the class to guess who each flap book belongs to based on the informative content inside. This not only reinforces the features of informative text but also makes for an engaging icebreaker.
-
Feature Exploration Stations: create interactive stations in the classroom, each focusing on a specific feature of informative text (e.g., headings, details, conclusion). Have your students rotate through these stations with their flap books, applying and practicing each feature as they go. This hands-on approach allows for targeted skill development while keeping the activity dynamic and educational.
-
Student-Teacher Conferences: use the flap books as a basis for one-on-one conferences with students. Discuss the content, ask clarifying questions, and provide personalized feedback on their use of informative text features. This individualized approach not only reinforces the importance of these features but also allows for a deeper connection between teachers and students as they share personal stories.
These ideas aim to integrate the features of informative text seamlessly into classroom activities while also incorporating a back-to-school theme and an element of curiosity.
