We Beat The Street Chapter 6 Questions, We Beat the Street Reading Comprehension
By Queen's Educational Resources
We Beat The Street Chapter 6 Questions, We Beat the Street Reading Comprehension
ABOUT THIS RESOURCE
★ Text: We Beat The Street
★ Chapter 6 Questions
★ 16 pages
★ Print and Digital
★ Detailed Answer Key included
This resource includes:
★ 1 Inference-Based Question "combo" Worksheet (contains all 5 questions together)
★ 5 Inference-based Question Worksheets (on a separate worksheet)
★ 5 Bulletin Board Task Display Pages (for each question worksheet)
★ 1 Scoring Rubric
★ 1 Blank Worksheet (for you to generate your own question!)
★ ANSWER KEY (very detailed!)
This resource focuses on CHAPTER 6 of We Beat The Street and features 5 inference-based questions that require students to demonstrate inferential thinking and a deep analysis of the chapter - beyond literal comprehension. Each inference-based question can be treated as an extended response where students must make inferences and support their responses, ideas, and/or analysis with evidence from the text.
► There is a "combo" worksheet, which includes all five questions on two pages. There are also 5 separate worksheets that include the same questions on a different worksheet. This allows for more extensive responses. You can have students either complete all five inference-based questions on the "combo" worksheet all at once OR you can have students complete each of the questions at different times: for classwork, independent practice, homework, or formative assessment - your choice! You can even give students different questions depending on their levels - excellent for differentiation.
► I also included a blank worksheet for you to generate your own question and students write it in the box!
► A detailed ANSWER KEY for the questions have been included. The ideas and evidence in the Answer Keys are accompanied by page numbers to help you facilitate discussion more smoothly and navigate to important ideas and events without looking for the information in the book. The Answer Keys are so comprehensive that you can even develop additional questions that will encourage students to engage in productive classroom talk!
► A 2-Point rubric is included for scoring with a section for comments and feedback at the bottom. Finally, there are five visually appealing Bulletin Board Task Display Pages to display with student work. The Bulletin Board Task Display Pages are personalized for each question worksheet! You have everything you need to score these assignments and display on bulletin boards immediately upon completion. It's a great way to showcase student work!
► This resource is also included in Google Slides! Text boxes have already been created to make it easier for you and your students! Each slide includes two instruction solution tabs for when students accidentally delete text boxes and when they want to zoom in (to enlarge worksheets). It's super helpful for students who are not that familiar with how to use Google Slides or need the extra assistance.

(FR) SCIENCES - BUNDLE (6e ANNÉE)
By French Made Fun!
Je me sentais généralement insatisfaite du matériel et des ressources disponibles que je trouvais en ligne et dans mon école. Je trouvais que la plupart des affaires étaient axées sur le vocabulaire et moins sur la compréhension et l'application. Bref, elles étaient poches et ennuyantes. Mes produits sont engageants et à leur niveau!
J'ai créé un paquet avec chaque élément dont vous avez besoin pour enseigner la science en 6e année à vos élèves en immersion. Chaque unité est complet avec du contenu, des activités, des jeux, des documents, des projets intégrés et des recherches très attrayants. Ils peuvent facilement être laissés à un suppléant et ont été créés à l'origine pour que mes élèves travaillent de manière indépendante afin que je puisse travailler avec de petits groupes.
* Des centaines * de pages de contenu vous feront économiser d'innombrables heures de préparation, de création et de recherche. Vous économiserez également de l'argent en les achetant en lot!
Vous aimez ce que vous voyez mais voulez en voir plus? Envoyez-moi un message pour demander des cours et des activités spécifiques et abonnez-vous à ma boutique pour rester informé!
