Description

ONE HUNDRED original 4th grade leveled close reading passages and activities that are PERFECT for teaching your students to become masters of close reading. There are seventeen standards-based earning targets in this product. Each learning target has 5 passages specifically dedicated to it except for all of the comparing learning targets because they all have a total of 10 passages so that your students can compare away!

Each passage has 2 pages of carefully written and consistent close reading tasks or text dependent questions. The first page of close reading tasks is specifically aligned to the learning target identified at the top of the page.

The second page of tasks is a SPIRAL REVIEW of all the informational learning targets for the grade level. This is perfect for holding those kids accountable for everything they have already learned! No skill slipping on your watch!

This pack includes both of these products:

This bundle does NOT include the “Add-On” Differentiated Extension Packs. But you may be interested in these packs. They include ALL of the passages in these products rewritten at a lower level for your struggling or developing readers. They can be found here:
4th Grade Close Reading **Add-On Extension Pack** Informational Text
4th Grade Close Reading **Add-On Extension Pack** Literature

CAREFULLY CRAFTED READING PASSAGES
Each passage falls within the Lexile level of 770-980. You can find a complete listing of the Lexile Levels by downloading the product preview. There are a variety of literature types including narratives, biographies, and letters. The informational text types range between STEM topics, science, history, and opinion pieces. The formats include stories told from multiple points of view, magazine articles, and texts with multiple diagrams. In terms of interest level, EVERY passage is written with a 4th grader in mind.

WHAT STANDARDS IS THIS ALIGNED TO?
This product is most closely aligned to the Common Core standards. However, everything is referenced as “learning targets” so that it is applicable within any 4th grade classroom. There are two options in this download. You can choose to either use a version that makes references to Common Core or a version that does NOT make references to Common Core. The content is the same in both files, but this option gives Common Core schools a specific reference to the corresponding standard, which may be helpful.

WHAT CAN THIS BE USED FOR?
This is perfect for class-wide close reading, assessments, guided reading groups, or homework. Your students must refer to the text and provide textual evidence of their understanding.

NOTE:
The Common Core standards consider 4th and 5th grade level texts within the same Lexile level band of L770-980. That means I use many (about 70%) of the same texts in both the 4th and 5th grade products. I only modify the passages slightly for text complexity and to better match the specific grade level standards. However, you will see that the questions and tasks on each of these grade level products are completely different and aligned to that grade level’s standards. If a 5th grade teacher is considering the 4th grade pack for something to differentiate for lower level readers, I suggest my 3rd grade pack.

Instagram post 2096139742797579457_193436463 Almost every good teacher uses strategy groups...but may not even know it! They might not realize that what they are doing is a "strategy group".⁠
⁠
One easy way to describe a reading strategy group is that it's like a reading conference with more than one student. ⁠
⁠
Think about it 💭⁠
⁠
When you are conferring one-on-one with a student, you have a compliment, a teaching point that you practice together, and then you give the student a direction for how to independently continue the strategy you've talked about in the reading conference. ⁠
⁠
You do the same thing in a strategy group! You have multiple students 👩‍👦‍👦who need to learn a reading strategy or skill. So you pull them into a group and you have a teaching point that you practice together followed by you giving the student a direction for how to independently continue the strategy 📖.⁠
⁠
Are you using strategy groups as part of your reading instruction? ⁠

Instagram post 2089502761996852842_193436463 I am having SO MUCH FUN choosing books for my Interactive Read Aloud lessons. I want to include books that are commonly found in most school libraries (and maybe even in an amazingly stocked classroom library!), which means revisiting a lot of classics. Such rich text and illustrations!! Love these gems for studying characters. #teachersofinstagram #teacher #mentortext #classicbooks #3rdgradeteacher #interactivereadaloud
