FREEBIE Darwin's Big Adventure

This resource is amazing! SWSmith Books, a new store, has worked hard to create differentiated science readings. This is one of many stories they have available.

They are a 6th and 7th-grade teacher who wanted to have readings that don't make students feel inadequate when it comes to reading. They include a glossary, leveled readings, and vocabulary words that stand out for ease of implementation.


This specific resource on Darwin is 58 pages with small chapters on the history of Darwin's trip to the Galapagos Islands. There are "words to know" at the beginning of each chapter and review questions at the end. The answer key is included. If you like the resource, you can purchase the bundle for the tiered levels.

They also have their website, if you're interested in looking at their books and novels.
