Congress Elementary is Reading Non-Fiction this week! Ships, A Pop-Up Book, by Robert Crowther
Congress Elementary is continuing its Genre Challenge for March Is Reading Month this week. This week dedicated volunteer, Ms. Ann, read non-fiction to our super students. Ms. Ann read Ships, A Pop-Up Book, by Robert Crowther, to teach students about the many different kinds of ships past and present. It was a surprisingly great topic! The children LOVED it and were very engaged. They learned about early vessels of Egypt and Rome, sailing vessels of of the Explorers, steam ships, fighting vessels and modern cruise, cargo and tanker ships. The pop-ups are very detailed. Thanks Ms. Ann! It was an enjoyable and creative way to explore non-fiction.

That's fantastic! I often overlook non-fiction for read-alouds, and a pop up book would definitely keep the students excited. Thanks for sharing!
