Text Features


   

This week in reading, we have started learning about nonfiction text features.  Text features are things in nonfiction books that help us to find and better understand information.  A few examples of text features are:
  • diagrams
  • headings
  • glossary
  • captions

Today we worked in partners to do a text feature scavenger hunt using nonfiction books from the school library.  What are some text features you know?  How do they help you when you are reading nonfiction books?
