Fiction Rap:
The fiction rap is a neat way for students to memorize the details included in what to know about fiction. A song leads to a dance which just happens to be kinesthetic learning- what we are all striving for! Another way for the brain to remember information.
The Book I chose to bring for the book talk was Magic Tree House Research Guide 14: Ancient Rome and Pompeii. We were also asked to complete a Nonfiction Scavenger Hunt. Some of the things we needed to find were: glossary, index, map, caption, chart/table, diagram, table of contents, heading, graphic organizer, graphs, and photographs. My book had all 12 conventions!
