Dictionary or Encyclopedia skill lesson---terms of the colonization.  Have a print 
out of the terms. Show how to use the dict/ency then do guided lesson with all 
doing the first two terms, then indiv practice.


OR--
Do genres
Reintroduce what the different genres are and their definitions with students 
helping with definitions. Have a handout with different titles that students need 
to find and write down the genre  (title-definition match). Do first 2 together, 
team up
the kids and let them see who can get all the way through the list before you call 
time.  Team has to agree on the genre.

OR--
Do a Dewey Lesson on where you find the different topics (including the ones for 
what they are studying).  How students go to the shelves and find 2 titles under 
the dewey that they might like to use again when doing research.

These are the quick off of my head lessons.  Depends on your teaching style if they 
will work or not.   I do regular "Search and Destroy" lessons with the middle 
schoolers.  Search for the information, Destroy because my library shelves look like
someone has destroyed them after several classes have come through.
