Description

Texas teachers, would you like to integrate reading, social studies, and test prep? Study Clara Barton, Ruby Bridges, and Helen Keller using single biographical paragraphs, nonfiction paired texts, or both. Options include print, Easel Activities, and Google Forms. These examples of good citizenship are specifically required in the Grade 3 Social Studies TEKS. Great for Women's History Month too!

The single paragraphs include one page with a biographical paragraph and 4 multiple choice comprehension questions. The paired texts include one page with the same biographical paragraph along with another nonfiction paragraph about a related topic, and one page of 8 multiple choice comprehension questions. The very last question asks students to compare or contrast both of the paragraphs. The questions include a variety of reading skills and are modeled after the types of questions on standardized reading tests.

The readability levels of these passages are in the upper elementary range. Please check the preview to help you determine whether or not they would be suitable for your students. You can purchase with confidence, as I have 32 years of experience in preparing upper elementary students for standardized reading testing!

The following items are included:

• Clara Barton paragraph & questions (1 page)

• Ruby Bridges paragraph & questions (1 page)

• Helen Keller paragraph & questions (1 page)

• Clara Barton/The Red Cross paired texts & questions (2 pages)

• Ruby Bridges/Segregation paired texts & questions (2 pages)

• Helen Keller/The Miracle Worker paired texts & questions (2 pages)

• Answer keys (2 pages)

• TOU & Credits (1 page)

• Easel Activities versions

• Google Forms self-grading passages (PDFs with 6 links included)

I’d appreciate your purchase, your rating, and your feedback.

Thank you from The Brighter Rewriter!
