What educators are saying

With the exception of a couple topics, as they are no longer relevant, this was extremely useful to have my students prepare for our state test!
This is such a wonderful resource. To have writing that already has the paired text is a wonderful thing. And the kids love it!

    Description

    Strengthen students' informational and opinion writing using this bundle of print & digital fact-based paired passages, or paired texts. Students are given an engaging focus question, then read these perfectly paired passages to formulate strong opinions or gather information about the topic. Students search the texts for reasons, evidence, examples, facts, and details that support their writing, then organize their thoughts on the graphic organizer. The organizer supports students as they write their final pieces, complete with all components necessary to meet your grade level writing standards.

    Save $$$ on our paired passages! We have bundled ALL of our engaging paired texts together for one great price.

    Teach writing the fun way. Your students will thank you! This can be done by either printing pages or assigning through Google Slides.
