    Description

    This bundle includes 6 engaging informational texts about important topics in media and information literacy. Texts cover confirmation bias, social media and misinformation, "fake news," facts and opinions, media bias, and more. Each text includes a study guide and a set of 10 challenging text analysis questions, plus detailed answer explanations.

    I love resources that build both content knowledge and academic skill. These informational texts cover key topics in media and information literacy, while also providing students with challenging text analysis practice.

    Use these texts to teach how to respond effectively to text analysis questions. You can also expand and build on the content of the texts using the suggested discussion questions and additional activities. Or, assign as independent student work. Each informational text + study guide + text analysis will take 1-2 hours.

    Each informational text is accompanied by:

    • Resource guide with suggestions for discussions and additional activities
    • Study guide for comprehension
    • Informational text analysis (10 challenging questions)
    • Detailed answer explanations

    After reading the passage, students will complete the accompanying study guide. Students will then answer text analysis questions addressing text structure and features, author's intent, reasonable inferences, etc. Depending on student level, you may elect to read the passage as a class, and review the study guide and text analysis together to provide additional learning support.

    Aligned with both common core reading (informational text) standards and SAT/ACT reading comprehension sections. Some of the texts and text analysis questions this series will be challenging for students in grades 7-8, but detailed answer explanations offer an opportunity for growth in this skill area.

    Grades 7+.
