This is a great resource for teaching main idea and supporting details! The animal and habitat passages were engaging for second graders and made the skill easy to understand and practice. Students were able to identify the main idea and use text evidence to support their answers with confidence. The activities were clear, well-structured, and perfect for whole group, small group, or independent work. A strong, low-prep resource for building reading comprehension skills! ???

Teaching 3rd graders main idea has been challenging. These passages are short and engaging. They are able to understand and work either in pairs or individually.

This is a good packet to review the main idea and supporting details. There are several passages to use with lots of details giving students of options.
