Paraphrasing is an essential skill for many types of writing, but a difficult one to master. This differentiation bundle is perfect for teachers who teach multiple grade levels or for 4th-grade teachers who have students that are not quite ready for the advanced cards yet and would benefit from some easier practice before moving on.
For younger or struggling students, start with Set 1, which features a different fun fact sentence for students to paraphrase. Paraphrasing a single sentence is a great way to introduce this challenging skill.
When your students are ready (or for older or more advanced learners), move on to Set 2, which features a different informational text (nonfiction) paragraph for students to paraphrase. These paragraphs are ideal for working on this skill because their shorter length will not overwhelm your students, but will still provide plenty of practice.
In addition to the task cards (2 sets of 32 cards each), you will also get challenge cards, 3 different student response options, sample answer keys, and a PARAphrase poster. In addition, all materials also come in blackline versions.

I recently used this in my classroom and it was both fun and highly effective! The engagement level of my students skyrocketed, and they were able to grasp concepts of the activity quickly. The interactiveness kept them actively involved in the process. Overall, a fantastic addition to any classroom!

This bundle is perfect for differentiation. The first part of the bundle is perfect for students who are starting to learn how to paraphrase and/or need additional practice. The second part is perfect for those students who need the challenge or are ready to move away from sentences and into paragraphs.

Paraphrasing can be really tricky for students to understand. I appreciated having this resource to help teach the skills needed.

I used these paraphrasing cards to help my 4th graders to take notes for an informational report. The students loved the slides and really got into them. It took a few slides for my students to understand the concept, but loved the topics covered.

I used this for a note-taking lesson in the library with a 4th grade class. I used them whole class, but you could easily use in small groups since the cards are differentiated.
