I’ve left these passages for when I have substitute teachers who would find it difficult to follow the reading program I’m utilizing with my EC students. The subs report that the kids have fun with this. It is also very useful for my students with autism as figurative language is difficult for some of them.

I modeled this skill with their story in their reading books. I was able to use the passage for them to read and practice explaining figurative language independently. Great resource for the classroom either in class or work for home.

This worked well as homework during our figurative language unit. I love the differentiation that allowed all students to focus on recognizing figurative language at their level. I will use this year after year!

Trying to find materials our ELL’s can be successful at learning has been a challenge. These were great materials we used and the scholars were able to be more successful in learning the skill.

My students genuinely enjoyed using this product. I was able to use the differentiated reading passages in order to let students with individually or with partners/ small groups. This product was very helpful in being practice for students leading up to our state testing as well. Super easy to use and students had no problem using it themselves as well.

This is a great resource. I purchased it to use with my 1st grade students that were reading at a 2nd grade level. This was used during center time as an independent fluency station. Students recorded themselves reading these passage and also took them home nightly as fluency homework.
