This engaging resource contains four informational reading passages about coral along with follow-up questions.

What is Coral?

Why Are Corals Reefs Important Ecosystems?

Human Impact on Coral Reefs

Coral Farming

The passages were written with middle-schoolers in mind, but the information is very interesting and complex and would be useful for other grades as well.

There is also a Standards and Suggestions page, task cards with pictures of 18 different corals with a report writing organizer, 10 educational posters, and links to 4 YouTube videos.

☀️What others are saying about our top-selling reading passages:

**"**Great way for the kids to independently read and analyze what they learned through the use of the graphic organizer. They individually picked which plant they wanted to read about and then they shared with each other. It was a high-interest activity."

"Great resource! I love setting up the cards in different centers and getting my students moving around the classroom as they read about each one."
