A reference chart for kids when reading a non-fiction text. As you are reading text with the kids (such as a Time for Kids or Scholastic News, or a photocopied text), identify examples of each of the features on the checklist. Cut out, or copy and cut out the examples and paste them on the chart. Then hang the chart to use as a reference. If the children have helped create it, they are more likely to remember and refer to it. Sometimes we have one for each reading group.
