Reading Graphic Organizer - non-fiction vs fiction

I am using this for R.L 1.5 ccss standard, but it can be used for many standards or lessons - I mean, kids need to know this stuff!  Sorry if you don't have a font or something when you are modifying- sometimes I mix it up just to keep it interesting.  Also, if you download it and can't open pptx files let me know..

Graphic Organizer I used for landforms - we used this as a foundation for our land-form building with paper mache that we started this week.  I'll post pictures of the complete projects if they turn out looking good!
