Description
Teaching Main Idea and Details is a fun, but tricky topic. Get students to have maximum engagement with this Main Idea Unit!
I personally love teaching all comprehension strategies. It is kind of my teaching jam! I have a strong belief in teaching comprehension strategies in the younger grades in order for them to fall in love with reading. I mean, who really wants to just read words for nothing?! What I have done is developed my Main Idea and Details activities into a product that now makes it so you can teach Main Idea and Details with ANY book that is a fiction or a non-fiction story/selection! That way no matter what program you are using you can tie these activities in with it. I have laid out for you a simple way to use “The Little Red Hen”/ or “Cats” (a simple non fiction selection) to help initially teach Main Idea in a fun act it out kind of way. Along with some simple worksheets to help them recognize Main Idea and Details. Other than that; all crafts, graphic organizers, ect, have no limit to what book to tie it in with.
