February Daily Nonfiction Reading Comprehension Passages
By Basic Biz Teaching
It seems like every day is National (insert cool thing here) Day. I decided to look into these holidays to bring some fun and excitement back to informational passages. The best part about these units though... they are EASILY enrichable! For example, practicing some yoga with Cosmic Yoga for Kids on YouTube for World Yoga Day, or writing your own fairy tale for National Tell a Fairy Tale Day!
My class has had such a fun time reading these passages and celebrating something each day.
In this unit, you will be given 29 informational passages with text dependent questions requiring short answer responses. Each holiday matches a day in the month of February (the student-appropriate ones).
Please consider that not every day has a holiday that is school appropriate. Not every holiday remains on the same day each year.
All passages are informational based, usually with a history on the day and whatever is being celebrated. Passages have 4-6 questions with a few skills being met:
Similar format throughout the unit so students get familiar with text structure and routine quickly. This document has the passage on top with the questions below.

More months coming!

June Nonfiction Reading Comprehension Passages
By Basic Biz Teaching
This resource will provide your second grade, third grade, and fourth grade students with 33 nonfiction reading passages about holidays in the month of June. Use these no-prep reading comprehension passages to have your students reading about various engaging topics.
It seems like every day is National (insert cool thing here) Day. I decided to look into these holidays to bring some fun and excitement back to informational passages. The best part about these units though... they are EASILY enrichable! For example, watch Donald Duck cartoons on Donald Duck Day, celebrate fathers on Father's Day, or get students to bring their bikes to school for Bicycle Day!
My class has had such a fun time reading these passages and celebrating something each day.
In this unit, you will be given 33 informational passages with text dependent questions requiring short answer responses.
Please consider that not every day has a holiday that is school appropriate. Not every holiday remains on the same day each year.
All passages are informational based, usually with a history on the day and whatever is being celebrated. Passages have 4-6 questions with a few skills being met:
Similar format throughout the unit so students get familiar with text structure and routine quickly. This document has the passage on top with the questions below.
