Publisher Description:

What exactly makes The Nonfiction NOW Lesson Bank such a stand-out? If you consider the amount of instructional support, that alone is substantial enough to transform your teaching. But Nancy Akhavan happens to be an educator who has performed many roles over her career so she divests in this book just about everything in her professional vault

  • A whole new vision of teaching nonfiction
  • 50 powerhouse lessons
  • A bank of short informational texts
  • Dozens of student practice activities
  • Graphic organizers for taming textbooks

Unlike so many books, this one will live its life in actual use: dog-eared, sticky-noted, and loved.
