Explore 4th Grade Making Connections in Nonfiction Presentations

Making connections in nonfiction is a critical reading comprehension skill that Grade 4 students must master to become proficient readers and critical thinkers. Wayground's presentation collection provides educators with comprehensive visual learning resources that deliver structured instruction on how students can connect nonfiction texts to their personal experiences, other texts they have read, and the broader world around them. These presentations feature concept explanation through engaging slides that break down the three types of connections—text-to-self, text-to-text, and text-to-world—while providing concrete examples and guided practice opportunities that help students understand how making these connections deepens their comprehension of informational texts, biographies, and other nonfiction genres. Wayground's extensive library contains millions of teacher-created presentation resources that support educators in delivering effective reading instruction through flexible digital formats. Teachers can easily search and filter presentations by grade level, standards alignment, and specific connection types to find materials that match their curriculum requirements and student needs. The platform's differentiation tools allow educators to customize presentations for various learning levels within their Grade 4 classrooms, supporting both remediation for struggling readers and enrichment for advanced students. These presentation resources integrate seamlessly into lesson planning, providing structured visual instruction that reinforces connection-making strategies while offering teachers the flexibility to adapt content for whole-group instruction, small-group work, or individual student support based on ongoing assessment data and learning objectives.
