Looking for a Main Idea Poster? We’ve Got You Covered!

Identifying a text’s main idea and details is often one of the hardest reading skills to teach. The concept is abstract to young readers, and it is quite often impossible to find structured, explicit instructional materials to help teach these skills to primary school students. 

Let us help you solve that problem with a curriculum-aligned Main Idea poster chart. This chart is geared specifically to the primary learner and provides them with a visually appealing and easy-to-understand example of a nonfiction text. It features a high-interest nonfiction piece about the whale shark and highlights how to find the main idea based on the text features included in the infographic. 

This main idea anchor chart is aligned alongside our Main Idea for Primary Grades PowerPoint.
