Hi-Lo Nonfiction Passages for Struggling Readers: Grades 6–8: 80 High-Interest/Low-Readability Passages With Comprehension Questions and Mini-Lessons for Teaching Key Reading Strategies

The high interest and low readability passages in this book are perfect for struggling readers. In addition each story comes with comprehension questions. The book is organized according to text difficulty and comprehension concept.

I got this book for my HS school and it is perfect. It’s breaks down each story with short reading comprehension questions, vocabulary and short writing. It is perfect for my HS emotional support class.

Great Format!

This is great for teaching language arts with text. I do not teach reading, so I can't always get language assignments that align with text without having me cover too many reading standards than I need. There are comprehension questions, but they are not overkill for what I need. These would be great for teachers who teach reading and ELA combined also. I actually use this book for an advanced 4th grade class, and they do well with it. The writing assignments are actually really horrible though. They do not align with common core because they are not text dependent. I just have students ignore the writing prompts in the book, and I create my own to go with the passages in this book.

Great product! Helpful to many students, just select a passage based on where you wish to support the child. Select passages below the child’s level to teach/remediate and on level to practice.

I loved it because it really helped me learn how to read and comprehend what I just read. The thing I liked best about it was that they have the anser sheet at the back of the book so you could look at the ansers and see what you got right and wrong. Its great because it teaches you different aspects of reading like chronological, cause and effect, main idea, and other very important concepts of reading. It has many different subjects in it so that you can learn about many different topics. I recommend this book for anyone who has reading difficulties and for their teachers and parents.

Great educational tool, you won't be disappointed

I use these stories and questions with my students in Grade 5 and they are great.
