Exploration of informative and imaginative texts

Today the Preps learnt about the terms – fiction and non-fiction. Although they may confuse which one is which at this stage, the core understanding developed in this session is the nature of informative and  imaginative texts.

We read ‘Diary of a Wombat’ then read some of the text ‘Amazing facts about Australian Frogs and Reptiles’

The Preps were asked to reflect on the similarities and differences of the two books.

The Preps then visited the library and had the challenge of finding one imaginative and one informative book. Once they chose two, they sat and compared the similarities and differences for themselves.
