No Prep Paired Text Close Reading Guided Passages - Grade 2

Synthesize Two Related Texts To Answer Higher-Order Thinking Questions

Lead your class in systematic close-reading lessons with our user-friendly, color-coded trifold lesson plans and dry erase passages for students to mark up. The trifolds provide paired texts with evidence highlighted to match color-coded questions that follow CCSS Key Ideas and Details, Craft and Structure, and Integration of Knowledge and Ideas. Engaging passages within the grade 2 complexity band encourage students to reread, analyze and mark text, and refer to their markups during discussion and written response. Differentiate by using single-text or paired-text reproducibles. The predictable lesson structure is designed for multiple readings across several days to learn what the text says, how the text works, and what the text means. The trifoldsA at-a-glance skills include main idea, key details, theme, vocabulary, text features, text structures, point of view, and much more. Cards and trifolds are three-hole punched.
