  2. Group Oceans. Reading Strategies • What books do you have in your desk that are fiction? Nonfiction? How do you know which books are nonfiction? • We read fiction differently from the way we read nonfiction. I am going to project a series of statements about reading fiction and nonfiction. As I read each statement, I would like for you to agree or disagree with the statement or add more information that I may have omitted. Here is the first example. "Fiction or literature is read for pleasure and is generally read one time through.”(7 min) Reading Fiction Literature (fiction) is read quickly. Fiction is usually read one time through. Fiction is usually read for pleasure. It is easy to create mental pictures while reading fiction. They are many ways to interpret fiction; often there is more than one right answer to questions about fiction as long as the answers can be supported with text. Details are not as important as seeing the "big picture" or main idea. It is usually easy to remember what has been read. Sometimes there are pictures to go with the story. Each story usually follows the same structure. Reading nonfictionNonfiction is read slowly and deliberately. Nonfiction is often read many times. Nonfiction is read for a particular purpose. Before you begin to read nonfiction, you should think about what you already know about the topic. It is often difficult to create mental pictures when reading nonfiction. Nonfiction is about facts. A question about nonfiction usually has one right answer. Details are very important when reading nonfiction; it is often difficult to see the "big picture." It is often difficult to remember what has been read. Notes are usually taken to aid the reader in remembering important facts. There are often charts, graphs, tables, or illustrations to assist the reader in understanding what has been read. The main idea of a paragraph is often the first sentence of that paragraph. Usually the last sentence in the paragraph pulls together the main idea. The size of headings, bold type, italics, charts, graphs, tables, or illustrations are often part of nonfiction. They assist the reader in understanding what has been read.
