Description

Differentiation can feel overwhelming at times. So can teaching students summarize nonfiction texts. But with this resource, I can help with both. This set of differentiated reading passages is a great resource to use if you are teaching your students to summarize nonfiction text.

Each text included in this set is written at three different reading levels (see levels below) so regardless of the grade you are teaching, you can give your students the level that will best meet their instructional needs. This way you can be confident they can read the text and really focus on the comprehension skill you want them to practice... in this case, summarizing nonfiction texts.
