Grade 6 Reading: Check, Reteach & Recheck
A short reading check, a specific teaching move, and a fresh chance to show the thinking. Start with a skill already taught. This first release covers choosing evidence for a supplied claim; other skills are not yet published in this category.
Start here
Give Check A independently, describe the visible response, teach one next step, then use the unseen Recheck B. Use Later Check C after another learning opportunity. The checks are not diagnostic or validated equivalent forms.

Choose Evidence That Answers the Question
Five original fictional scenes: an initial check, a teacher model, guided practice, a new recheck, and a later check. Two teaching routes address selecting relevant evidence and explaining its connection.
