This is a comprehensive NO PREP, NO PRINT Boom Card Activity that addresses the concept of comprehension of expository text and reasoning with an insect theme. It is the SECOND in my Middle High School Comprehension Boom Card Series and focuses on an insect theme. It includes real images and is fully interactive with point & click features, fill-in the blanks, and immediate feedback is provided.
These cards are self-grading and are a fun engaging way to address a wide variety of concepts in a very functional way: comprehension, main idea, comparing, contrasting, use of context clues, use of text evidence, vocabulary, and literacy. It includes FOUR separate reading passages that have been chunked into digestible bites to encourage confidence building in your students. It is FULL of Tier 2 and Tier 3 vocabulary to reinforce and ensure carryover. Each passage includes comprehension questions PLUS there is a bonus vocabulary review section to help students reinforce key terminology.
