What makes these passages so unique?

Differentiation

There are three differentiated versions of each passage, for a total of 96 passage options! These passages have been carefully leveled, and the levels are subtly marked with a small icon in the corner.

 

All three levels of passages will use the same reading comprehension question page, making differentiation simple! No child will feel left out since the mark is only a small symbol.

Comprehension Questions

Every passage includes a full page of comprehension questions. The first question on every page will help students activate their background knowledge about the passage’s topic. This question is followed by comprehension questions from the text (multiple choice and free response). Last, there is a deeper thinking question to encourage critical thinking and hit a variety of grade-level language arts standards.

 

BONUS! A half-page option is also included for the reading comprehension questions (not pictured). This is a GREAT option if you want to save on paper while printing!

 

Reading Fluency for 1st Grade

This resource makes recording reading fluency data simple for you. There are several options included for tracking reading fluency! Up to three reads of each passage can be recorded directly on the passage page. 

 

A teacher recording sheet and a student graph, as well as directions, are included, so you will know exactly what to do!

    I purchased this to give my students more chances to practice their comprehension. I like that the same passage has 3 different levels-it allows me to differentiate for my students.

    I really like the tracking sheet for the students and passages. Also, the differentiation makes it better for me when I work with students 1 on 1. They can all still read the same passage, but in different levels to stay consistent with everyone in the class. Thank you for this!!

    I have assigned this to my kids and they seemed to really enjoy it. It was a little hard but I don’t mind challenging kids.

    I use this resource to differentiate our reading fluency practice while distance learning for those who are below 2nd grade level. In my Seesaw class we do a cold read on Monday, practice reads on Tuesday through Thursday, and a Hot read on Friday. I download the page I would like to assign to Seesaw and then duplicate the page. Students set a timer and then record themselves reading the passage. I love that I can listen to them and make notations at a time that is convenient for me.

    Love using the digital version as weekly homework! It makes reading fluency practice a breeze to assign to different groups and the students don’t realize they are being given different level passages!
