Cross-curricular practiceReading & writing
Two ten-page reading packets explore the Declaration of Independence from different angles: its history and creation, and life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Each packet provides higher- and lower-level versions of its passage, a graphic organizer, six vocabulary matches, comprehension questions, two written-response prompts and completed answer pages. Four linked Google Slides files provide the two reading levels for each packet, with spaces for digital responses. Choose a packet and reading level before assigning the corresponding tasks.
