Description
⭐️These 12 printable & digital folktales and fairytales are comprised of traditional stories around the world. They are certified Lexile® measured and perfect for teaching, developing, or reinforcing RL.2.2 and RL.3.2 skills. Students use folktales and fairy tales to recount stories and determine the central message, lesson, moral, or theme. Students identify and explain how the message is conveyed through key details in the text.
⭐️If you do not use Common Core, this packet is still perfect for teaching main idea skills. Aligns with many state-specific standards, including TEKS and VA SOL.
⭐️Includes standard based questions, anchor charts, and two skills-focused test passages. Certified Lexile measured close reading comprehension texts are varied within the second and third-grade bands.
⭐️The printable PDF and digital versions are both included with this product for classroom and distance learning needs. The digital version is compatible with Google Drive and Google Slides and can be downloaded from Google Slides into PowerPoint.
*This digital version saves paper, but still requires teachers to correct student responses.
