Teaching Kids Non-Fiction: Wrap Up

Video Transcript

"Hi, I'm Ann Kennedy on behalf of Expert Village. We'll be looking at how to teach a child to read using big books and read out loud. Non fiction books read out aloud part 3. We examine a non fiction book the wonderful teaching strategies that we can utilize in other sessions we looked at reading a cover and a back cover. But let's pretend that we are threw reading the non fiction book and let's take some of the things that we learned. This is a very important part of non fiction regardless if they are learning fishing, photography, doll making, learning about their five senses. Let's try to develop our own creative activity mine would be something as simple as we use our nose to smell. Let's have maybe a garbage right here. How does that smell? Not very nice and some flowers, that smells pretty we taken one concept and we can do that. How does that taste? As we looked at the last one with sugar and lemon, I see something that looks scary, I see something that looks pretty in a movie. Start talking about things that you learn in non fiction books and give it a reality for the child and they will be interested and motivated. It won't sway off on other subjects as math, science as they grow older cause they will find it fascinating and interested when they are young."
