Nonfiction Endangered Animal Passages for Language, Comprehension, and More

This differentiated No Prep packet features 12 different ENDANGERED ANIMALS with 2 levels of Nonfiction passages for each animal. With these passages you can address reading comprehension, listening comprehension, vocabulary, context clues, research, informational text writing, main idea and details, summarizing, comparing and contrasting information, and more!

This product is great for upper elementary aged students, as well as, middle school students with a language impairment. (Sometimes I even use them with high school students.) These work well with mixed language and articulation groups as well.
