We started working on text structure a little bit before the break - just problem/solution and main idea/details, to start to see the differences between fiction and nonfiction. I had some sentence frames prepared, and then on a whim, we started making some foldables out of construction paper.
MY KIDS LOVED IT! (And what was great is that my newcomers were able to make their own foldables and completely participate in the lesson, which is unfortunately not always the case.) In fact, they went to ESL asking to make more foldables!
Success!
So...when we get back from break we will be hitting nonfiction text again so I am ready for it with more foldables. I made one template for nonfiction and one template for fiction, complete with sentence frames to summarize in paragraph form on the backside of the foldable. Printing the inside of the foldable is optional, and sometimes can be a little tricky to get just so using a copier.
The dotted lines are for FOLDS and the solid lines are for CUTS. You can get it for free off of my NEW TpT account! : )
