Annotation: The reading and writing processes have historically been kept apart, but with The Reading/Writing Teacher's Companion Series you can explore their richness for yourself and your students in ways that unite the process meaningfully and productively.

"Investigate Nonfiction" builds on what children can do before they even go to school: recount events, display learning, tell how things work, and explain processes. Explore how the various nonfiction genres extend from children's use of oral language. Children interview, record data, make early reports, read information sources, and examine the world around them.
