Cloze Reading

This is FREE at my TPT Store

So recently my 4th grade students have been struggling with meeting their quarterly goals in Reading Comprehension. We assess using the DAZE assessment on Mclass.

 Well, I have been frantically looking for cloze passages and reading comprehension mazes for my students to practice. I found a few things, but nothing I felt was appropriate for them. My students are very fluent readers. They score well on fluency, and on their TRC's. But when it comes to a one-minute cloze reading passage, they drown.

So I decided to make some for myself. I am tracked out right now, but I can't wait to get back to school to try them with my students. I will keep you posted on how well they work! :)
