101 Google Forms close reading passages, or informational texts, with comprehension and grammar questions followed by extension tasks. The Google Forms activities are ideal for distance learning and perfect for students in 3rd grade or 4th grade. The activities also come in PDF format for printing.

Time allowance for each activity:

5-10 minutes - read through the text individually.

40-50 minutes - answer questions using the text as guidance (including extension activity).

Time allowance to assess:

A class set of activities might take around 15-20 minutes to mark; the teacher can then send the students their marks automatically, which allows them to read back through their work. Nearly all answers are not automatically generated, but only require a small amount of work to assign points. This is because the aim is to get students writing answers and not to just have multiple choice options.
