Today P1b worked in their reading routes groups to explore a piece of text and to highlight the parts that looked different.  The class all co-operated very well in their teams and worked together to take turns when highlighting.  They really were text detectives as they managed to spot different examples of bold and italic text.  We read the text aloud and discussed how these types of text affect how the reader reads aloud the text and thought of some ideas about why they author uses these different types of text.  Can you spot some different types of text in any of your books at home?
