⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I am teaching reading one day and writing the next with distance learning. It worked well to do paired text reading one day, partially together and partially independent, followed by them writing to the prompt the next day. – Sincerely Jilly
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My 4th graders read from levels B-Q, so this is a great resource for me to use with them on remote days. I do a read-aloud for my lower kids and it is so effective! – Miss Reed Rocks 4th
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I am a 5th grade teacher and already had the 4/5 bundle but I snagged this one as well because these passages are awesome! This is going to be a great resource to differentiate for my lower-level readers. The passages are engaging and talk about topics the kids will be interested in. I plan to use the Plagiarism passage to reinforce what we talked about as we started our informational writing and the moon passage will tie in perfectly with our Science unit on the Solar System. – Tifferoo Teaches
