  33. Kristy J.

    The passages are short enough to keep students engaged and provides just enough detail to help them infer the answer(s) to the question(s) asked. Perfect for independent assignments, centers, or a ticket out the door at the end of class. I introduced the first story to my 5th grade reading students and we completed it together to show them how to completely answer the question(s) and provide evidence from the passage. They will complete the rest of the stories independently. Love this resource!
