Every year, your classroom is filled with students reading at different levels.

Some students are ready for grade-level texts, while others are reading at a 2nd or 3rd-grade level, even in 4th and 5th grade.And yet, you’re expected to support every student, no matter where they are, while preparing them for those end-of-year tests.

I’ve been in your shoes. I know the pressure of trying to meet every student where they are without sacrificing the rigor your curriculum demands.

It’s a delicate balance—and sometimes, it feels impossible.

But here’s the good news: You can help every student move forward, even when it feels impossible.

That’s exactly why I created my Accessible Reading Skill Intervention Resources and why I want to share a “test drive” with you.

This test drive will show you that it is possible to support your whole-class instruction and ensure that below-grade level readers have a way to access and practice the grade-level skills they need to succeed.

In this test drive, you’ll discover how to help your below-grade-level readers practice grade-level skills using accessible, skill-based texts that meet them where they are.

Yes, even your students reading 2+ grade levels below can engage with and master grade-level skills with the right resources.

I NEED THIS TEST DRIVE!

Here's What's Inside:

✔ Engaging, accessible texts at a 2nd-3rd grade level—so struggling readers can focus on practicing grade-level skills instead of getting stuck on decoding.

✔ Small-group reading lessons with all the planning done for you—just adapt them to your classroom needs.

✔ Independent skill practice that struggling readers can actually complete—so they can build confidence while reinforcing the skills you’re teaching.

This isn’t about simplifying the work—it’s about giving students who struggle with decoding and comprehension the right entry point so they can effectively engage with the grade-level skills you are required to teach.

Two Small Group Lessons

Skills: Theme and Main Idea

Here’s what you get with each lesson:

A Scripted Lesson Plan: Step-by-step guidance to help you review the skill and support your students with confidence.
A High-Interest Passage: Whether it’s a fiction story or an informational text, each passage is relatable for students and written at a 2nd or 3rd-grade level with controlled vocabulary.
Skill-Specific and Optional Comprehension Questions: Includes skill-building questions and optional comprehension questions.

Two Independent Activities

Skills: Theme and Main Idea

Here’s what you get with each activity:

An Engaging, Accessible Passage: Whether it’s a fiction story or an informational text, each passage is relatable for students and written at a 1st-2nd-grade level (yes - an even lower level to make sure it is truly independent).
A Simple, Skill-Focused Task: Students practice the target skill through straightforward, easy-to-understand activities designed to build confidence while supporting their practice of the skill.

See it in action: These lessons and activities are designed to meet your students where they are while making sure your Tier 1 instruction stays impactful and accessible.

Not Sure if This is the Right Resource for You?

This is FOR teachers who...

Have students who read 2+ grade levels below and need accessible materials to practice grade-level skills.
Want to make sure their Tier 1 instruction is meaningful and impactful for all students, including those still working on basic reading foundations.

This is NOT for teachers who...

Are working primarily with students who can decode at grade level but struggle with comprehension.
Need a resource focused on decoding skills (this resource assumes decoding support is already being provided).

P.S. Oh hey, did we just meet?

Hi, I’m Jennifer Findley—a former 4th and 5th-grade teacher who created these resources after seeing the real need for accessible, skill-based practice in my own classroom. The difference it made for my students—and my enjoyment of teaching reading—was huge, and now I want to share it with you.
