Text Features Practice Worksheets
Students will learn all about features of a nonfiction text. They will complete a scavenger hunt at they delve deeper into the text at hand.
Before beginning nonfiction text features, its important that students learn the difference between fiction and nonfiction texts. A whole class brainstorming activity will definitely get the kids motivated and learning all about the different characteristic of each.
These worksheets will help kids identify the characteristics of each using a handy chart or table.
These Nonfiction Leveled Task Cards will work well with these worksheets.
Students will look for text features, photographs, headings, illustrations, and bold words in the text.
I love using these nonfiction task cards as they include prompts on each card which already help learners comprehend and understand the main idea, new vocabulary and context cues found in each text.
The best part is that they are leveled which work really well with ESL / ELL students.
The next activity sheet includes another way in which students interact with the text!
