Nonfiction Matters: Reading, Writing, and Research in Grades 3-8 | Stephanie Harvey

Just checking in…How is everyone doing with their #Nonfiction2022 card this year? Anybody stuck or having any issues. So far I‘ve been delving into history a bit with:

With Ten Days in the Mad House by Nellie Bly for I Am a Basket Case
&
Ida B Queen for I Am a Rebel

I absolutely love seeing all your posts & the way you are each interpreting the prompts, the creativity is fabulous! My TBR list is growing with each post.

⤵️

Riveted_Reader_Melissa If you are just starting out and need a black card or the “rules” (there really aren‘t any) a blank card and the initial post can be found under #Nonfiction2022Template 3y

ncsufoxes I missed this prompt but totally going to do it because I read a lot of non-fiction. I have a few in mind that I have in my TBR pile to use. 3y

Megabooks I‘m tracking on the storygraph and I think I‘m about half done. I‘ll do the template this weekend. 👍🏻👍🏻 having fun!! 3y

Amiable I am enjoying the extra creativity of trying to figure out a book that will fit each prompt! 3y

Reposting #Nonfiction2022 for anyone that missed it before!

Can anyone guess the inspirations for this year‘s choices?
…..

If these make you think of the closing of The Breakfast Club or the song B!tch by Meredith Brooks you are right. People/books can be many different things to different people depending on your POV & preconceived ideas OR many things all wrapped up in one. So have a blast fillings these categories any way you want.

Riveted_Reader_Melissa Again, for anyone new…these can be filled any way that suits you. “I‘m a criminal” for instance…you could go straight to a criminal biography (Capone/Manson, whatever), or a True Crime story, but also remember that people from Martin Luther King Jr, to Nelson Mandala, to Freedom Riders were all criminals in their time and spent time locked up. So if a category sounds like not your thing, try looking at it a different way. Maybe Alcatraz, or ⤵️ 3y

Riveted_Reader_Melissa ↪️ maybe just maybe you like science and think Watson and Crick stole that DNA and got the credit when they shouldn‘t, or remember that famous Enigma Machine Alan Turing‘s brilliance was criminalized because of his sexual orientation, archeology = grave robbers, etc, etc, etc… you can go anywhere, the choice (as always) is up to you.😉 3y

Riveted_Reader_Melissa This is a laid back challenge, you can make it as creative as you want….and go for just bingo or coverall. The difficulty level is entirely up to you. Have fun with it! 3y

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @TiminCalifornia Have fun with it, the most important thing is to enjoy yourself. 3y

Blackink_WhitePaper Dear @Riveted_Reader_Melissa I really enjoyed this challenge in 21. I read many nonfiction books and explored different kinds of books. Even tried audiobooks. I m definitely trying to finish this board in 22. Thank you so much for hosting 💐😊 wish you a happy new year 🥳 3y

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @Blackink_WhitePaper Thank you, and Happy New Year to you too! I‘m so glad you liked it and that it inspired you to read some new books. Hopefully it‘s just as much fun for you this year! 3y

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @Cinfhen Were you the one that asked me recently to tag you when I posted the new card for 2022? If so, here it is…if not, sorry, I‘ll tag you too. 3y

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @Amandajoy I know you just asked me about this recently. Here you go. 3y

Amiable Interesting! My brain is already starting to ponder these categories. 3y

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @Amiable You can really go anywhere with these, I tried to post an example for people new to this bingo card. But as usual, if anyone gets stuck, just ask for some suggestions. (edited) 3y

Amandajoy Yay! I‘ve been waiting for this! 3y

Addison_Reads This is always one of my favorite challenges each year. Thank you for doing it again. 💚 3y

Amiable @Riveted_Reader_Melissa I think the challenge for me will be to avoid always defaulting to memoirs or biographies to fit the categories. It may take a bit more brainpower to find books that are straight narrative nonfiction. But I‘m up for the challenge! 👍🏼 3y

Singout Yaaaay! I think I‘m getting obsessed with these challenges… 3y

Megabooks Still looking for I‘m your angel undercover 😉 3y

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @Megabooks I bet you can find a book for that 😉 and stick it in the free space. 3y

Cinfhen I‘ve been WAITING FOREVER for this!!!! AMAZING prompts 🤩 LOVE ❤️ Now I‘m off to plan / thanks for tagging me 3y

Cinfhen And yes, I did ask xxx thanks for remembering 3y

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @Addison_Reads Thank you! There is so much out there, that is a huge compliment. 3y

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @Cinfhen You are very welcome! 3y

squirrelbrain Love these prompts Melissa! I‘m trying not to do too many challenges next year but…..! 3y

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @squirrelbrain I try to make this one open enough, that you can pair it with other books you are already planning on reading or reading with other groups. Good luck no matter which challenges you decide attempt. 3y

BarbaraTheBibliophage Can‘t wait!! Now I need to do some planning! Thank you for a fun set of prompts. 👍🏻🤓📚 3y

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @BarbaraTheBibliophage You are welcome! I can‘t wait to see all the fun choices! 3y

alisiakae Love it! I fail miserably every year, but I keep trying! 😄 3y

Ruthiella I‘m going to give it a shot. I read next to no NF. Maybe this will help me work it into my other reading! 3y

Butterfinger Count me in!!!! 3y

jb72 @AnneFindsJoy it‘s here! This one looks like a lot of fun. 3y

AnneFindsJoy @jb72 yay! This year will be LOTS of fun, love the topics!!! 3y

IndoorDame I‘m really excited to join you for the first time! I‘m slowly starting to read more nonfiction so motivation to expand on that is awesome! Most of the nonfiction I‘ve been reading has been memoirs, so I‘m trying to think more expansively… do you consider poetry fiction or nonfiction for this challenge? 3y

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @IndoorDame Poetry is considered non-fiction by goodreads so it is non-fiction! Read what works for you and have fun with it! 3y

IndoorDame @Riveted_Reader_Melissa awesome! Thanks! 3y

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @IndoorDame You are very welcome. This is definitely supposed to be a fun laid back challenge, so have fun with it. 3y

vlwelser I read a lot of nonfiction so I'll give this a whirl. Your criminal explanation above is brilliant and sort of answers all of my original questions. 3y

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @vlwelser Thanks. The categories are always meant to be very broad and open to interpretation. And usually I find books I read can fit multiple categories. 3y

vlwelser Do you use them for multiple categories or do you just pick one per book? Because using Ida B for half the board feels like it would be cheating. 3y

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @vlwelser I only use each book once, not for multiple categories…deciding which it fits in best or works for my bingo can be interesting too. 3y

Riveted_Reader_Melissa Here it is @fredthemoose 3y

vlwelser Wow. You had no idea what you were getting into with me and the questions.... Are we doing the whole sheet or just trying to get a bingo? 3y

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @vlwelser It was meant just for bingo, but you have all year and Litsy being Litsy many people aim for coverall. Again your choice. And you can ask as many questions as you like 😉 3y
