Pages 1 to 4 each hold two short texts on one topic: children circle Text 1, Text 2 or both for each fact, then compare the texts' main points. Pages 5 and 6 work with any two texts on one topic: two circles to fill in, and a chart that compares the texts point by point.
Read the two texts with partners, one reading Text 1 and one Text 2 aloud. For each question, ask children to put a finger on the sentence that tells them; a "both" answer needs a finger in each text. Use pages 5 and 6 with two library books on the same animal.
Read both texts together. Ask your child what one text tells that the other does not, and what both texts tell.
Pairs of short texts on wolves, sharks, spiders and frogs and toads, written at a 2nd grade level. Children read both texts on a topic, tell which one says what or whether both do, and compare the most important points each one makes.
