Nonfiction Matters provides practical tools to help students explore nonfiction and reach a more complete understanding of the real world.
Stephanie Harvey shows how students can read expository text, engage in research and write authentic nonfiction that is captivating, visual and full of voice.
The inquiry projects require in-depth learning using nonfiction sources, beginning with topic selection and question development, then research exploration, reading for content, organisation, synthesis, writing to convey meaning and finally, presenting findings.
