How to Differentiate a Reading Passage…We’ve Got You Covered!
What is the best way to differentiate reading? Experts have many opinions on the subject, but one truth holds clear – students need accessible materials and lots of practise. Differentiated texts are your best bet to reach learners of different abilities. This grouping of materials has students comparing and contrasting mammals and reptiles.
The differentiated resources offered in this downloadable resource come in two levels – on and below level. Each set of paired passages is accompanied by a compare and contrast cut and sort activity and a structured writing template for producing a compare and contrast paragraph.
This set of Mammal vs. Reptile resources focuses on the following skills:
- Comparing and Contrasting (Passages)
- Identifying facts and details
- Organising and recording information (Cut and Sort Table)
- Writing an informative paragraph (Sentence Frames Provided)
