Tom's online handle is "Captain Library" because that's his school, but it's also a fitting title, because Tom is THE MAN when it comes to all things library - particularly primary sources! (If you haven't checked out The Primary Source Podcast, you are missing out.) He has collaborated with author Melissa Stewart in the past, and here he shares his lesson on how he presents Stewart's five kinds of nonfiction with students (and staff). It's helped me rethink my approach to nonfiction - maybe it'll spark something for you, too!  Resources:  An Introduction to the Five Kinds of Nonfiction Lesson: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1AChMn3SREMhcWCVX44-d4mspntVfCXIF/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=107672689077137206868&rtpof=true&sd=true  Add'l Links: https://www.melissa-stewart.com/books/teachers/bk_5_kinds_nonfiction.html    Book Break:  The Labors of Hercules Beal by Gary D.
