Description

This Tiger Shark Informational Article and Comprehension Activities includes an article about tiger sharks in two formats (two-page color photos & one-page text), website resources for online articles and videos about the tiger shark, a fact sort sheet where students can sort facts about the tiger shark, a variety of note-taking sheets, comprehension activities, and mini-report pages.

Google Classroom Digital Components

► Google Slides with student sheets include drag and drop (moveable) pieces and text boxes

Use these articles as a resource when researching and writing about animals. Read the article, look at a variety of web sites, and watch a couple of videos to gather all our facts about the animal. Once students have the facts, sort the facts into categories and then write a research report.

This article works well with my Informational Writing Tools packet that scaffolds expository or informational writing about animals from researching facts to writing paragraphs.

See this blog post for more information about how I use this resource to teach informational writing.

Included in this Tiger Shark resource are:

  • Vocabulary Cards with key terms from the reading passage
  • Informational Article in two formats (with and without photos)
  • Websites for additional research: QR Codes & Google Site
  • Graphic Organizers for note-taking
  • Comprehension Activities such as short answer and cloze reading
  • Fact Sort for students can organize the facts
  • Summary Page
  • Writing Pages for a mini-report

Some videos are on YouTube. Make sure you can access YouTube at school.

Also available is a Coral Reef Animals BUNDLE that includes clownfish, coral, giant clam, manta ray, sea cucumber, sea slug, sea star, sea turtle, sea urchin, and tiger shark. Purchasing the BUNDLE will save you 50% off purchasing each animal individually.

Purchase all my animal articles together in one large BUNDLE. Purchasing the larger BUNDLE will save you over 50% purchasing the animal articles individually.

This article works well with my Informational Writing Tools packet that scaffolds expository/informational writing about animals from researching facts to writing paragraphs.

The videos are on YouTube, so be sure you can access them at school.
