Third Grade Sharks engaged in a hands-on activity where they explored various informational texts, focusing on features such as headings, tables of contents, and glossaries. They collaborated to identify these features within different texts and discuss how each one helps locate key information efficiently. They put their skills into practice by using text features to find specific details quickly, enhancing their comprehension skills. To deepen their understanding, they compared how these features function across different texts and shared strategies for leveraging them during independent reading. This activity promotes active engagement with informational texts and develops critical thinking skills for our Sharks!
