This power point uses graphic organizers to help students determine fiction from non-fiction. For fiction selections I use a story map graphic organizer. For non-fiction I use a main idea and details web. This power point shows the students how to use these graphic organizers to help them determine fiction from non fiction. This power point is 16 pages long and should take half an hour to go through it. It should be the main lesson.

The students will make their own flash cards and can sort them when they have extra time. They can continue to add to this center. The teacher doesn't really have any work to do other than making the sorting sheet. The students will pick their word, find out it's part of speech and meaning and they can keep this in their brain bins to take out and add to or sort whenever they want to.

This power point teaches main idea of text as well as photo. Teaches students to look for topic sentence.
