For my Block II field experience I spent some time in a fourth grade class at a STEM school. The curriculum at this school was very much what I would call "integrated." Instead of having separate Reading, Writing, Social Studies and Science lessons they used content from all areas across every subject. Often for reading they read about science and for writing they wrote about social studies. You get the idea, right?
Well one of the resources my cooperating teacher used for reading practice was the ReadWorks website. You can search by grade, subject, reading level, and comprehension strategy. It is aligned with the CCSS and easy to use. I thought it was pretty fantastic. And the best part? It is FREE!
