Text Connections

Teach the reading and analysis of key text types using four types of text in every topic set: Informational, Narrative Fiction, Narrative Nonfiction, and Opinion.
  • Texts are organized into grade-level topic sets that build knowledge and develop literacy skills.
  • Informational, Opinion, and two Narrative books—Fiction and Nonfiction—explore one topic in diverse ways.
  • Close reading instruction is explicitly supported in each book's Teacher's Guide.
  • Text-Dependent Comprehension Cards provide prompts for evidence-based answers.
  • Cross-Text Analysis Cards for each topic set encourage evaluation of content.
