Reading Comprehension Passages and Questions - March

This March Reading Comprehension Passages packet has everything you will need to teach close reading comprehension skills for the month of March, including St. Patrick's Day. Texts are presented in two reading levels to support differentiated instruction. All texts are accompanied by five or six text-dependent questions. All answer keys are included. Much of this packet is included in the preview so you can check out the quality and content before you purchase.
