Today we are asking you to create a blog post for Nonfiction Text Features. Nonficition text features are used with a purpose. Your task today is to create a drawing for at least 5 different text features and explain the purpose of each feature. These drawings will then be inserted into a presentation that will be embedded onto your blog. Since we have not yet used drawings, you will create the first one alongside your teacher. After you have created your drawing, your teacher will show you how to insert that drawing into your presentation. The presentation template has already been made for you. You will access this template through Google Classroom - Reading.
Be sure that you are following along quietly and paying attention. If you get behind you will have to wait for the teacher to finish to come and help you.
Push your thinking Dragons!
