Meaning of text through format and text features

Standard 4

Identify the roles, tools, and purposes of authors, illustrators, and other contributors for a text.

• Create a Book (Grade 3-6)
  Students will pick out the main theme for the book and discuss the elements used to make up the story. They will use the iPad App Story Creator to illustrate and write their own story. They will be learning how to take a paper illustration and put it into a digital story and add their own text. This can be adapted to 4-6 grades.
• Parts of a Book
  Students will watch a short video about the parts of a book and then test their memory to see how much they can remember.
