This yogurt reading comprehension with lesson plan includes: Visualization (on the front cover) Start your lesson by taking a minute to think and share something about the topic. Read the script aloud (slowly), perhaps prepare some music or sound effects. Student close their eyes and let their imaginations wander. Students open their eyes, read the question aloud and give them a few minutes to complete. Ask a few students to share or keep answers until the end to compare with what they learn in the passage. Quick pause—thousands of Cored Education products are included with your TeachSimple membership. Download links and encyclopedia index available here. Pre-Reading Trivia Students will write down one thing they already know about the subject and then read five more facts and discuss. These facts are fun, and the students will enjoy learning about the subject before reading more. Give 1 minute for students to write what they already know (no pressure—best guess is fine). Read the five facts together. After each fact, do ask a student for their opinion, was it surprising? Set a purpose by asking students to highlight/underline one fact they want to learn more about during the reading. Reading Passage The text is a high-interest reading passage with set paragraphs, roughly three to four paragraphs long. It contains a variety of themes about the topic, anywhere from history to technology. The passage is between 250 and 350 words in length. First, ask students to look at the headings and see what they’ll learn about today. What do they know about the topic/heading? First read options: Teacher read-aloud (best for support). Partner reading (paragraph by paragraph). While reading, students underline important details, and vocabulary words they think may come up in the questions section. Mixed Questions The first question page contains four multiple-choice questions, each with a choice of four answers, and three written response questions that require a sentence or two from the student. Students complete the mcqs first independently, then review quickly as a class. For the 3 written responses, try to get students giving the answer with some form of evidence: “I think ___ because the text says ___.” If students get stuck, send them back to check the passage. Vocabulary Questions Practice seven key words from the text in this section across two activities. First section is scrambled words where students will unscramble three words given a clue for each. The second section is a word to meaning matching activity. Before starting, have some students read out words they underlined in the passage. Ask students to say the word and read aloud the sentence(s) around each word. Ask students to do scrambled words and the matching exercise in pairs then go through answers as a class. For the scrambled spelling task, get four pairs to come up to the board and write the words for extra practice with the other student reading out the clue. For the matching task, prompt students to give full sentences: “I matched ___ with ___ because ___.” Creative Writing In this question, the student will be required to write a five to eight sentence paragraph on a question related to the topic. Before starting, ask students write down 3 key ideas they are going to include in their piece. Ask students for ideas to share around the class to help those struggling. Pro writing expectations: 5–8 sentences At least 2 facts or details from the passage At least 2 vocabulary words from the previous page Students read their paragraphs while classmates listen for facts and vocabulary words. Extension Activities This page is optional for fast finishers or to take home. There are several activities, each one requiring a different skill. Do some, do none, do all, completely optional - but you will feel reassured knowing every possibility is planned for. Includes summary writting question. Answer Key There are answers for the multiple-choice questions, written response questions have sample answers, vocabulary answers and if there is a summary question then a sample summary will be provided as well. Lesson Plan Included Customized lesson plan for this lesson is included. Lesson Snapshot Title: Yogurt Genre: Nonfiction (informational text) Subject: Science (food science/microbiology) & Informational Reading Primary Topic: How yogurt forms, bacteria “helpers,” and history Estimated Guided Reading Level (A–Z): R What This Lesson Teaches Best Explains that warm milk can change during travel , becoming thicker and a little sour, and people learned this new food could last longer than fresh milk. Teaches the science of yogurt-making: tiny bacteria eat sugar in milk and make lactic acid , which helps milk proteins clump so yogurt turns thick and creamy. Shows why warmth matters : keeping milk warm for several hours gives the tiny workers time to do their job. Builds a brief history of how yogurt was studied and spread, including a 1905 observation by Stamen Grigorov and later interest from Ilya Metchnikov that helped it become better known in Europe. Connects history to modern life by describing how Isaac Carasso began selling yogurt in Barcelona and how yogurt comes in many styles today, including fruit-mixed cups and thick strained kinds. Learning Goals Students will describe how yogurt may have been discovered when milk changed during a journey. Students will explain how bacteria help milk turn thick and creamy, using details from the passage. Students will identify why keeping milk warm is important for making yogurt, according to the text. Students will describe what the passage says happened in 1905 that helped people understand yogurt better. Students will sequence key events about yogurt over time (long ago, 1905, 1919) using information from the text. Students will describe a simple home method for making yogurt that is stated in the passage. Key Vocabulary From the Text bacteria — tiny helpers you cannot see without a microscope. lactic acid — an acid bacteria make that changes milk. proteins — milk parts that clump together as yogurt thickens. microscope — a tool used to see tiny living things. cultures — live helpers added to start yogurt thickening.

I Like Colors Video Storybook
ELA, Kindergarten, Read Alouds, Activities
What colors do you like? This bright and colorful photographic video will teach young readers about all of the different colors through catchy rhymes. Each color is shown with a photograph to help children associate colors to things they see in real life, like a green frog and green leaves. “A yellow duck. A yellow spoon. A yellow cup. A yellow balloon. I like yellow. Yes, I do. Do you like yellow, too?” Repetitive text, simple word patterns, and bright photographs teach children about colors and color words.

Justus von Liebig – Chemistry Pioneer and Science Reformer A ready-to-use reading and activity set for grades 7–10 (PDF + H5P) ⚗️📄 A printable and digital resource for grades 7–10 science and cross-curricular teaching 🧪🧠 This resource introduces students to Justus von Liebig, one of the most influential chemists of the 19th century. Known for his work on agricultural chemistry, food science, and lab-based teaching, Liebig helped shape the way chemistry is studied and taught even today. His contributions go beyond formulas – they reach into education, nutrition, and everyday life. The resource includes a concise, accessible text paired with simple, structured tasks. It can be used in a chemistry unit, during a lesson on the history of science, or as part of a substitute plan where no specialized background is required. Included in this resource: Informational text on Justus von Liebig’s life and achievements Student worksheet for creating a scientist profile Quiz questions with a complete answer key Two extension tasks: – Students write their own questions based on the reading – Peer activity to exchange and answer each other’s questions File formats: – PDF for print or digital use – Editable DOCX (text only) – H5P version for use in digital classrooms (no images) How it’s used in the classroom: This kind of material works well as a quiet reading activity, a springboard for science-history discussions, or a way to highlight lesser-known scientists who had a big impact. I’ve used it during lessons on food chemistry and nutrient cycles to provide real-world context. The H5P version supports independent and self-paced work, especially in hybrid or online classrooms. With minimal prep and clear instructions, the material can be used flexibly across settings. A thoughtful and low-prep resource to bring historical depth and personal stories into science class. Have fun exploring the world of science with your students! Warmly, Lernfitness Did You Know? I teach with a certified therapy dog, and together we focus on creating a positive and inspiring learning environment.
