Weather Forecasting Guided Reading

Description

Do your students glaze over during reading time?
Struggling with vocabulary retention?
Noticing shorter and shorter attention spans year after year?

If you’re nodding “yes” to any of these, this resource is here to save the day!

Reading comprehension doesn’t have to be boring or overwhelming—and it doesn’t belong only in the ELA classroom! Every teacher can support literacy with the right tools (and a little bit of fun!). Just model, read together, annotate, and let those meaningful discussions begin!

I created this line of reading resources to make your life easier and your students more confident readers.

Each passage is:

  • ✔️ Clear and engaging
  • ✔️ Written at a grade 6–8 reading level
  • ✔️ Paired with thoughtful, rigorous questions that ask students to predict, reflect, connect, and think critically

Whether you’re using it for pre-reading, homework, review, or to support absent students—this resource has the flexibility you need to fit your teaching style.

Let’s get those students reading, writing, and building vocabulary—without all the prep stress!

 

Topics covered in this resource include:

  • What is cloning?
  • Types of cloning
  • The ethics of cloning
  • Real world applications of cloning
  • Misconceptions about cloning

NGSS STANDARDS COVERED BY THIS WEATHER FORECASTING READING:

NGSSMS-ESS2-5
Collect data to provide evidence for how the motions and complex interactions of air masses result in changes in weather conditions. Emphasis is on how air masses flow from regions of high pressure to low pressure, causing weather (defined by temperature, pressure, humidity, precipitation, and wind) at a fixed location to change over time, and how sudden changes in weather can result when different air masses collide. Emphasis is on how weather can be predicted within probabilistic ranges. Examples of data can be provided to students (such as weather maps, diagrams, and visualizations) or obtained through laboratory experiments (such as with condensation). Assessment does not include recalling the names of cloud types or weather symbols used on weather maps or the reported diagrams from weather stations.
