Nonfiction presentations available through Wayground provide educators with comprehensive visual learning tools that break down the essential characteristics, structures, and purposes of informational texts. These structured instructional resources guide students through concept explanations of biographical writing, scientific articles, historical accounts, persuasive essays, and technical documentation, helping them recognize text features like headings, captions, charts, and glossaries that distinguish nonfiction from other reading genres. Students develop critical analytical skills as they learn to identify author's purpose, evaluate evidence and credibility, distinguish between fact and opinion, and understand how nonfiction texts are organized to convey information effectively. Wayground's extensive library of millions of teacher-created nonfiction presentations supports educators in delivering engaging, standards-aligned instruction that meets diverse classroom needs. The platform's robust search and filtering capabilities allow teachers to quickly locate presentations targeting specific nonfiction subgenres, reading levels, or learning objectives, while customization tools enable educators to modify content for differentiated instruction and remediation support. These digital-first presentations integrate seamlessly into lesson planning, providing flexible delivery options that accommodate both whole-class instruction and individual student exploration, making it easier for teachers to reinforce essential nonfiction reading skills and support students who need additional practice identifying and analyzing informational text structures.
