I used these passages as a low-stress jigsaw activity when subbing for a colleague. With careful group selection, it went very well!
Thank you for the kind review!
Thoroughly enjoyed using this - I expanded on the resource by extracting tough vocabulary and then used it as a guided reading task.
Thank you for the review and sharing how your twist on the activity!
