Kelly The answer is...it depends.? I have some boys (and girls too)?that do better in nonfiction because they like it better and are motivated to read it.

I am a senior majoring in special education. While reading the book I began to develop questions about different genres and the impact that it has on comprehension. Would you agree that fiction is easier than non fiction for struggling readers? _______________________________________________ Mosaic mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe or modify your membership please go to http://literacyworkshop.org/mailman/options/mosaic_literacyworkshop.org.
