Staying Healthy

This information module is intended to be taught in the middle of the school year following instruction on main idea of text. In this module, students will be taught to identify the main idea of non-fiction text that is read (or listened to). The students will also be taught how to take notes and then organize them in order to create an informational pamphlet. This module will focus on these standards:

RI.1.2 Identify the main topic and retell key details of a text.

W.1.2 Write informative/explanatory texts in which they name a topic, supply some facts about the topic, and provide some sense of closure.

Students will develop an awareness of the need for a healthy body and how to stay healthy as they create an information pamphlet.
