I love watching kids read. Watching them get into and excited about a new book or article or whatever is really great to see. At school, when I'd watch my students read selections out of textbooks or other readings in class, I very rarely saw that excitement. When I asked them why they looked so bored, they always had one of two responses, it was either 1) too hard, or, 2) too boring. Armed with these insights, I asked myself what I could do about it. My answer was to write short, interesting readings about what we were studying at two different reading levels so everyone could comprehend the critical content from the selection. Since then, I have written many sets of differentiated readings. Today, I'd like to highlight my English Colonization ones. This set includes selections about the Southern Colonies, the New England Colonies and the Southern Colonies. Each topic's selection is written at an Upper Elementary and Middle School grade level so the content is accessible to everyone. So, click the link below for my English Colonization Differentiated Readings which is also available as part of my European Colonization Bundle and as part of my American History Differentiated Reading Mega-Bundle. Also, don't forget to visit and follow my store for other great American History resources!
