Description
Light and Sound Close Reading bundle includes two close reading sets. The articles are aligned with the Virginia Standards of Learning and each light and sound close reading article includes a schema builder, vocabulary set, the article, a questioning page that requires text evidence, and a written response for deeper thinking and text citation.
What’s included in the Light and Sound Close Reading Bundle?
There are 14 pages total in the bundle, and each light and sound set will be used over 3-5 days. You can use them with your light and sound science unit or for small group reading to reinforce the concepts and nonfiction reading strategies. I have found that using them in reading reinforces the concepts for struggling readers. The articles are written at a 700-750 lexile level…fourth to fifth grade level.
Concepts include the following:
- Light and Sound Waves
- Light Terms: Transparent, Translucent, and Opaque
- Concave and Convex Lenses
- Reflection and Refraction
- Colors (ROY G. BIV)
- Pitch, Frequency, and Volume
- Amplitude, and
- Vibrations
A preview file is available, so be sure to check that out prior to purchasing.

Mrs O Knows –
This is the answer to my integration prayers! I never feel like there is enough time to dive in to our science topics, and I hate to only scratch the surface. This will be the perfect way to integrate science and reading to build a better understanding of light and sound. Thanks a million!
