Who doesn’t love task cards!?

I am so excited to be offering these super flexible task cards to help students practice and master the comprehension skill: teaching the skill of using background knowledge while reading.

1. 36 total task cards in each set: 12 Basic, 12 average, 12 advanced!
2. Digital version ready for student answers.
3. Colored printable versions.

HOW TO SET UP DIFFERENTIATION:

WAYS TO USE THE CARDS:
