I love reading books with my students and nonfiction is one of my favorite genres to share with them. We always learn together and grow ourselves with the questions and wonders that remain after the cover is closed. I didn't use a theme or special qualifier for picking my titles. These books just happened to pop into my head when thinking about recent nonfiction we've read and learned from as a class this year in second grade. Here are my titles for today's 2018 Nonfiction 10 for 10:
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this book. My students and I had so much fun learning about animals - some unknown to us and some surprising facts about a few animals we are very familiar with. |
This is a great biography with a very intriguing twist. The illustrations are unique and contribute much to the telling of the story. |
In the fall a mother of a student in my class brought her AP Envio. Science students to dissect owl pellets. We used this book to learn more about owls. |
