1 charles lindbergh Differentiated reading passages

2 A Note From The Seller: I have found that integrating whenever and wherever possible is a great way to make sure that I am addressing all of the Common Core Standards and giving my students enough practice to reach mastery in each skill. Since close reading is my new favorite thing, I have decided to create differentiated close reading passages based on different subjects that children would deem interesting, or topics that I need to cover anyway. Many systems and states do close reading differently, so I have left the specifics for marking up the passage out. Instead of having the levels on the passages where students can see the numbers, I have decided to put a shape to designate which level it is in the top right-hand corner. They are also included in the product in this order. A circle designates low. Lexile: 660 GRL: P A triangle designates mid. Lexile: 820 GRL: T A square designates high. Lexile: 1040 GRL: Z *approximations Acknowledgements & Terms of Use: Thank you so much for purchasing this product.
