I Know All About Text Types – Year 1
This worksheet allows students to demonstrate their understanding of fiction and non-fiction texts by identifying their purpose and giving their own opinion on these texts.
Provide students with a range of fiction and non-fiction texts to choose from. As a class, discuss the books and sort them into fiction and non-fiction piles based on their features. Students can then select one of each book before completing the sheet.
