| | | Reading Fiction & Nonfiction |
|  | | |  Live in three…two…one! Join our young radio personalities as they prepare for and broadcast this edition of Cover 2 Cover, which features strategies for reading fiction and nonfiction. In this program, the staff at WORD examines how both fiction and nonfiction are organized, and demonstrates how knowing the structure of a book can help when you are reading. The radio jocks delve into the story elements of fiction, including character, plot and setting, as well as the organizational elements of nonfiction texts, including glossary, index, sidebar, table of contents and the various graphic elements present in most nonfiction books. Using classic children's literature and recognizable nonfiction topics, the energetic staff provides students with solid strategies for reading fiction and nonfiction. Part of the multivolume Reading for Children DVD Series. A Teacher's Guide is included and available online. | | "As high-stakes testing on reading skills increases so does the need for support materials. This is an excellent resource to meet that need.…Key concepts are reinforced, reviewed, and shown in use…These clear, well-organized productions will happily find a home in all elementary school libraries."- School Library Journal (Nov 2004)
"In this video series, students are taught the skills basic to becoming a good reader..."- Teacher Librarian (Feb 2005) "…material is neatly compartmentalized so starting and stopping the action would work well…Recommended."- Library Media Connection (Mar 2005)
