Text Structure Differentiated Reading Passages, Worksheets & Graphic Organizers

This resource is included in the Stellar Literacy Collective. Click here to find out more.

Differentiation can feel overwhelming at times. So can teaching students to fully understand nonfiction text structure.

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 identify and understand nonfiction text structure.

Each text 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 nonfiction text structure.
