Year 5 or Year 6 Civil Rights Movement Reading Comprehension Bundle

This reading comprehension bundle includes three Individual activities about three of the key figures from the American Civil Rights Movement: Martin Luther King, Rosa Parks and Ruby Bridges. Each activity requires NO PREP and has a body of text that students need to read through thoroughly; then they can use the text to find the comprehension and grammar answers. All texts then have an extension activity for those fast finishers.

This bundle contains the following reading comprehension activities:
1 – Martin Luther King
2 – Rosa Parks
3 – Ruby Bridges

Answers, for teacher use, are on the final page of each document.

Time allowance ( one hour) for each activity:
5 minutes - read through the text individually.
40 minutes - answer questions using the text as guidance (including extension activity)
15 minutes - Teacher and students go through the text and answers.
