We have simplified the process by creating this all-in-one product with reading Non Fiction Articles using Close Reading steps, making inferences, using Informational Writing Graphic Organizers and putting those together into an Informational Writing piece where your students will be sure to be proud of their work.
All the work has been done for you and the steps are laid out so this unit is a HUGE time saver.
