The task cards are differentiated so that students can reinforce close reading skills at their own reading levels.  A detailed answer key shows the text clues that students should have identified in the text.  The task cards can be easily added to a literacy center station to reinforce reading strategies.

The colorful pictures support the informational text passage that is on each card.  Students learn about social studies and science topics as they practice supporting their answers.  A fully annotated answer key has been included that both shows the important details that should be identified in the text and has the written explanation on the blank lines.
