  1. Yecenia A.

    A great resource for students when needing a refresher or more helping understanding concepts.

  2. Flexing 4th

    Easy to use lesson materials for my class of 100% virtual students. Students were able to complete and demonstrate their understanding!

  3. Donna C.

    Very much enjoyed using these with my students.

  4. Amanda W.

    I’m a teacher in training and part of my program we have grade numerous lesson plans for different grades. This resource was super helpful in creating lesson that goes with the reading passages. I can’t wait to to full the resource when I have my own classroom and if I ever teach 5th grade.

  5. Science Wonder and Art

    Very well written, easy to use resource.

  6. Tiffany Hughes

    I switched from 3rd to 5th grade in the middle of the year, & this truly helped my sanity (in not having to create something). It also helped my students understanding of such important events in our history.

  7. Shalon Clark

    Engaging for my students home and in class.

  8. Melissa H.

    Kentucky Standards have become heavy on reading and using text to defend a claim. These passages were great to be able to get the students used to reading and answering questions. They were right on point for us on rigor and content.

    Thank you so much for helping me enhance the learning in my classroom!

    Great resource to add to our social studies unit and get a little cross-curriculum reading in too!

    Lots of short interesting reads, my 4th grader enjoyed this a lot.

    I use these to reinforce concepts we have already learned in social studies, while also practicing ELA standards and even fluency with the passages.
