Google Slides Compare Stories in Genres - 5th RL.5.9

⭐️Teachers and students love these 12 Lexile® certified close reading stories from different genres for 5th grade. Paired passages and questions are perfect for teaching, developing, or reinforcing compare and contrast skills for RL5.9. Fifth grade students learn to compare and contrast stories in the same genre for their approaches to themes and topics.

Genres include: action/ adventure, fantasy, historical fiction, mystery, science fiction, and realistic fiction.

⭐️If you do not use Common Core, this packet is still perfect for teaching or reinforcing these skills.

⭐️Includes standard based questions, anchor charts, and two skills focused test passages. Certified Lexile measured close reading comprehension texts are varied within the fourth and fifth grade bands and aligned to Common Core standards.

⭐️This paperless resource is compatible with Google Drive and Google Slides. I also have the printable version available here: Compare & Contrast Stories in the Same Genre - 5th Grade RL.5.9

*This digital version saves paper, but still requires teachers to correct student responses.
