You can grade the assignment with the key or put copies of the key at the front of the room for students to check their own work when they have completed the packet. If you have students who struggle with reading, you can read the first page out loud and then let students work on their own. You can let students work in groups of two if you think they may need more support. This assignment was made with Virginia SOLs in mind but this topic is included in many state standards.
