Description
These reading comprehension passages are perfect for the winter season. Students will learn about snow, penguins, polar bears, hibernation, migration, and so much more! Each passage require students to go back to the text to support their answers with EVIDENCE. The goal is to move students beyond a literal understanding and to a deeper and more critical evaluation of the text.
In my own classroom I typically use these passages during my targeted small group instruction. During the first reading, I have my students number the paragraphs or subheadings (If the passage includes paragraphs or subheadings.) During the second reading my students take notes directly on the text. They make inferences, draw conclusions, circle vocabulary, etc. As my students complete the comprehension activities, I ALWAYS require them to underline, circle, or highlight the evidence in the text.
I hope your students enjoy these activities as much as mine do!
