Eyewitness Nonfiction

Use the Eyewitness Book Series to do a Nonfiction Book Talk and demonstrate that there are exciting books in every section of the library.

Have each student choose a book of interest to them and use the books to teach about Nonfiction text features.


These books are so popular at the elementary school that you can put them all on one shelf and students will grab from that shelf. This is a Shelving Trick that can help you quickly shelve these high circulating books.
