Are you wanting to engage and motivate your students AND practice important reading skills for the end of the year or for test prep? This BUNDLE of engaging themed reading experiences is just what you need! **This bundle is COMPLETE. If you purchased it while it was GROWING, be sure to download all of the new themes that have been added.** What are Reading Experiences? Reading experiences are an engaging way to review reading skills using an engaging and relatable theme. The passages and stories students read share a common (and interesting) theme. Students read the passages and answer comprehension and skill-based questions. Note: The questions are all short answer. There are NO multiple-choice questions in this resource. The purpose of this resource is to engage students in reviewing reading skills with interesting themes (versus mimicking a state assessment or practicing question types). You can create an even more exciting experience by allowing the students to enjoy a reward or activity related to the specific theme. Really want to excite your students? Use the included extras + decorations and transform your room for the day or week!
