What educators are saying
Description
Your first grade and second grade students explore text for facts and opinions. They learn to examine the text more carefully for soft c and soft g words after multiple fluent readings. Perfect for small group guided reading time, as there are 3 differentiated leveled passages.
Decodable reader in 2 formats helps students needing more fluency practice before moving on to the close reading activities. Read the enlarged pages together as a group, and then give individual students the one-page foldable booklet to reread at home.
Reading comprehension is achieved with students answering text-dependent questions and drawing illustrated details from the passages. Supportive printables included that help you introduce the meaning of fact and opinion and sorted grade-level phonics words. Practice isolated phonics with the spin-and-read game for soft c and soft g words.
Do your students read at any of these grade levels?
Level 1 (L1) = beginning to middle of 1st grade
Level 2 (L2) = middle to end of 1st grade
Level 3 (L3) = 2nd-3rd grade at minimum
If your students reading levels range between first and third grade, this resource may be a good fit for you!

- Poster (8.5x11 in.) Fact and Opinion
- Poster (8.5x11 in.) soft c and soft g word sort
