What educators are saying

Absolutely love this product. It was fun for the kids to learn about sharks and learn text features in nonfiction reading. Wonderful
This was a perfect way to introduce research writing using media print. The task cards were a great help. Learning about sharks also kept my learner's attention! Thank you.

Description

Is it Shark Week in your classroom? This task card set is perfect for some extra reading, task card games, and practicing the use of nonfiction text features!

Note: This set is available in a money-saving bundle!

What is included?

  • This package contains four pages of nonfiction reading selections designed to resemble magazine or newspaper pages.
  • Each page has articles, tables, illustrations, and photos showing many shark topics.
  • This includes shark attacks, sizes of sharks, kinds of sharks and basic facts, information about shark fins, a diagram of body parts, an article about shark teeth, and an article about whale sharks.

The set of 56 task cards has many unique features:

  • Multiple choice cards include: determining the type of nonfiction text feature in the article, determining the purpose of the nonfiction text feature, and basic comprehension questions.

Open-ended tasks include drawing and labeling; designing tables; making new task cards; making a mini-glossary; creating a poster; creating an index; and writing a fact paragraph. Several of the task cards require additional research.
  • The brightly colored backgrounds for the task cards are color-coded: blue for multiple-choice cards concerning text features, green for multiple-choice cards concerning comprehension questions, and purple for open-ended tasks.
