by Ainsley Karl

A FREE preview of my non-fiction zoo passages!
➡FIND THE FULL FILE OF 28 STORIES HERE⬅

Do you have a zoo unit? Add these non-fiction passages to your day for a fun and engaging activity!

Use these for close reads, examining tough vocabulary and reading multiple times as you fill in the provided graphic organizers.

2 passages – a high & a low. Both have similar content and are in the same format so they can be given to a group. The lower passage has less words, simpler vocabulary and broader facts. The higher passage has more advanced vocabulary and more specific details

Please download the preview for a 1 complete set free . This will help you to gauge if these will work with your students. Student reading levels can vary significantly. We’ve all had those groups who come in much higher or lower than you’d expected. *The preview cover is in black and white due to the limits TPT places on preview file sizes!

Included, and customized with a header, for each animal:

⁕ 3 Graphic Organizers ⁕
“Can / have / are “
“5 things I learned”
“3 things I learned”

⁕ 2 Writing papers ⁕
Blank lined page to write & draw a picture
