Mrs. Hammonds’ fourth grade students spent a couple weeks learning about different types of text and graphic features in ELA.
The students read various types of non-fiction books that provided opportunities for the students to identify features such as text feature that include fact boxes, captions, bold text, and table of contents to name a few. They also identified graphic features such as the difference between a photograph and illustration in a story, graphs, charts, and maps that help provide more information within a story.
