This is a ONE PASSAGE SAMPLE. The following is the description of the FULL resource and the downloading links: Animal Skin, Cats, & T. Rex: Reading Comprehension Passages (PDF) This very engaging collection of life science reading passages about Animal Skin, Cats, & T. Rex is designed to bridge the gap between science and literacy through strengthening reading comprehension and sparking scientific curiosity in middle school students. Each passage blends English Language Arts skills with accurate science content that supports NGSS classroom practice. Ideal for interdisciplinary learning in ELA and Science. Suitable for Grade 9 review, too! What Is Included? There are (3) informational passages: Tyrannosaurus rex: The Tyrant Lizard King Step into the late Cretaceous and see T. rex up close, from its towering build and crushing bite to the clues fossils give about speed and feeding. CT scans, trackways, and healed injuries help scientists piece together how this predator lived. Cats and Sweetness: A Taste They Don’t Have A small change in a taste receptor means cats do not detect sugar. This trait fits a meat-first diet and helps explain why scent, texture, fats, and proteins matter more than sweetness. Animal Skin: A Tool for Survival Skin works as armor, thermostat, camouflage, warning, and display. Examples include the hippo’s natural sunscreen, zebra stripes that confuse attackers, and king snakes that copy coral snake colors to stay safe. Student Tasks for Each Passage: 5 multiple-choice questions targeting main idea, key details, inference, vocabulary in context, and use of evidence 5 vocabulary matching items with clear, student-friendly definitions 5 text-based questions that require citing specific lines or facts 1 summary prompt that asks students to condense central ideas accurately Full answer key for every section Available Formats for this Resource Word Docs Google Docs FULL CATALOG OF DOWNLOADING LINKS HERE Other Science Reading Collections and Topics You May Find in the Store: 1.
