Astronomy Reading Passages | Space | Sky Science | Paper and Digital

Learn everything there is to know about space through these simple reading passages that require no more prepping than simply printing the pages or posting a link to the pages. These passages were written to replace the need for textbooks whether you are teaching in person or online. 

This product can be found in our Astronomy Unit Bundle.

This easy-to-use product includes:

• ten reading passages designed for Grade Six reading level (though we understand that not all students read at the exact level).
