📝 Paraphrase Notes for Park Facts

Students practice turning source sentences from ranger websites, park fact sheets, and nonfiction texts into their own words using a color-coded note-catcher. The teacher models how to keep key facts while avoiding copying, then students write short paraphrased notes about landforms, wildlife, history, or reasons to protect their park. A closing circle includes one new fact, one question, and one feeling about their park study.
