Interactive Reading Tools

Practice answering reading questions and proving every answer with evidence from the text.

Purpose

Reading Tools help students answer a question and then prove the answer with evidence from the text.

How it works

Open a tool, choose a passage, and answer each question. Then tap the sentence in the passage that supports the answer.

The goal

Students build the habit of proving every answer with the text.
