Celebrate Nonfiction

Exploring the Joy of Nonfiction Reading and Writing

5 Kinds of Nonfiction Text Set 2

 Because educators have let me know that they’d like
additional text sets to read and discuss with students as they use this activity to introduce the 5 Kinds of Nonfiction classification system, I’m
sharing four more here this fall. You can scroll down to find a dinosaur-themed
text set.

Today’s
topic is activism.

Black Lives Matter: From Hashtag to
the Streets by Dr. Artika R. Tyner (traditional)

Shirley Chisolm Is a Verb by Veronica Chambers (narrative)


She Persisted:13 American Women Who
Changed the World by Chelsea Clinton (expository
literature)

Speak Up! by Miranda Paul (active)

Together We March: 25 Protest
Movements that Marches into History by Leah Henderson (browseable)

You can
purchase these books and use them, or better yet, you can study them as a group
and use what you learn to create your own text sets with books already in your
collection.
