Use this resource to teach students 62 different grammar skills with engaging reading passages. This resource offers quick daily practice that you can implement throughout your day.
Why Reading Passages?
•Provides context for the grammar convention you are teaching
•Provides students with the opportunity to examine an author’s choice of words, phrases, punctuation, sentence structure, paragraph structure, etc. versus looking at a skill in isolation
•Promotes the transfer of grammar conventions to reading and writing
•Helps students close read (i.e. read for a specific purpose)
•Provides students the opportunity to analyze the impact of incorrect grammar on a writing piece. (e.g. text that is difficult to read or comprehend due to incorrect conventions)
•Helps students see how the pieces of the puzzle fit together (e.g. how parts of speech are the building blocks for sentences, how sentences are the building blocks for paragraphs, etc.)
Grammar Reading Passages includes 124 reading passages that you can use for the entire year. You can cover topics in order, or you can pick and choose topics based on your students’ prior knowledge or areas of need.
This resource will help you target a specific grammar skill with an engaging reading passage. Each passage is set up exactly the same to promote a strong and predictable routine that works best for students.
