Two proven lessons, one offer: Citing Textual Evidence (R.A.C.E.) + Main Idea & Supporting Details. Everything your grades 4-8 readers need to write strong, text-based constructed responses.
💰 Save ~$3 · ~23% off vs. buying separatelyStudents can't pull the main idea out of a passage — so they summarize everything or nothing. And when they do answer, their evidence is thin: a dropped-in quote with no restating, no explanation, no "so what." On every constructed response, both gaps cost them points.
This bundle closes both. Main Idea & Supporting Details teaches them to find what matters; R.A.C.E. teaches them to prove it. Together they're the full reading-to-writing routine your students reuse all year.
Two complete, editable, classroom-proven lessons — the catalog's two best-converting reading-comprehension resources, packaged together.
