Welcome to the new Plugged-in to Nonfiction page!
Apr 1st, 2009 | By Plugged-in | Category: Featured, NewsDear Educator,
We are pleased to announce the release of our newest reading program,
Dr. Janet Allen’s Plugged-in to Nonfiction. This “toolbox” of balanced literacy resources is unlike any other program out there. What makes it so different? The entire classroom library is made up of authentic nonfiction.
Now, we know that A LOT of classes in A LOT of schools use textbooks. So what we’ve done is create lessons that teach effective strategies that students can use to comprehend textbooks across all content areas. In fact, we’ve included resources that will teach students how to read and write a variety of nonfiction text-types. Plugged-in to Nonfiction is designed to help students develop the necessary skills to tackle any nonfiction they encounter on tests and in the real world.
If you have any questions or would like to receive more information, please feel free to call me directly at 1-800-638-1304 x1122 or email me at beth@pluggedintoreading.com. You may also find more information online at www.PluggedintoReading.com. I hope you enjoy learning more about Dr. Janet Allen’s Plugged-in to Nonfiction and how it can support student success on the test and beyond!
Sincerely,
Beth Eaton

“Nonfiction pieces brought works of literature to life for my students. And when the literature came to life, students had real questions that intrigued them … I realized that reading most nonfiction is very different from reading most fiction.”
—Dr. Janet Allen
