Close Reading


1S has been learning about many topics using non-fiction text and also using a strategy called close reading.   



After reading about apples, we integrated math and science to make a recipe.  Students assisted with the process.  We even had a student photographer documenting the steps of "How To Make Applesauce."





We voted and counted how many students liked the taste of the particular recipe we used.  Some students made suggestions on changing the recipe to suit their taste. 


We will continue to learn about many non-fiction topics using a close-reading strategy.  In first grade, we learn to read and read to learn.
