Comparing and Constrasting in Fiction

Whether your student’s writing a persuasive essay or reading similar stories, compare and contrast is a great tactic for sharpening reading comprehension. For example, apples and oranges are both fruits, but they’re not the same thing. How are they similar? How are they different? Learning how to compare and contrast helps with both non-fiction writing and fiction stories, and also helps kids think critically in everyday life.
