On Wednesday we had a lot of fun in literacy! With our unit on informational text, we have been focusing a lot on main idea and details. It can be easy to confuse the topic with the main idea. To help kids see the difference we did a fun activity where each partnership was given a bag with 4 related items inside. They had to then work together to come up with the topic AND the main idea. The items were the details to support the main idea. For example, in one bag there was: a paintbrush, a water cup, paint, and paper. This group decided that the topic was art and the main idea was: materials you use when painting. Such a great job done by all!
