Description

Give students multiple opportunities to master their reading comprehension skills using these short fiction and nonfiction passages that are all about Winter! Each winter passage has 3-4 text-based questions and an open response, text-dependent question! The passages were intentionally kept short so that students can practice returning to the text for evidence to answer the text-dependent questions.

These Winter themed 20 short passages are a part of an All-Season Short Passages GIANT Bundle!
Buy it and save 20% and have passages for the whole year!
