Differentiation can feel overwhelming at times. So can teaching students to understand plot structure and key story events. But with this resource, I can help with both. This set of differentiated reading passages is a great resource to use if you are teaching your students to understand plot and focus on the events in the story.

Each story included in this set is written at three different reading levels (see levels below) so regardless of the grade you are teaching, you can give your students the level that will best meet their instructional needs. This way you can be confident they can read the text and really focus on the comprehension skill you want them to practice… in this case, understanding plot and story events.

I teach a diverse classroom of learners. This works well so we can do a read together and students share differences in their papers. It allowed me to discuss on the overhead...language and how it used.
