Celebrate Independence Day in your middle school ELA classroom with engaging and NO PREP reading comprehension and writing activities that bring American history to life!

I recommend using this resource with Secondary School students. These activities are also suitable for ESL/ELL students whose level of English is Intermediate (B1-B2) or Advanced (C1-C2).

PRINT AND DIGITAL VERSIONS OF THE ACTIVITIES ARE INCLUDED.

RESOURCES INCLUDED:

** An original non-fiction reading passage (2 pages) about Independence Day in the United States.
** Reading-comprehension questions
** A Multiple Choice quiz
** A True or False activity
** Worksheets with five thought-provoking writing prompts related to Independence Day to encourage research, writing and critical thinking
** A scrambled letters worksheet with the names of some of the Heroes of Independence + Research project. Instructions: After completing the worksheet on their own, students can be assigned one historical figure each to do research on that hero and then write a paragraph about that person. This activity could also be done in groups.

SAVE VALUABLE TIME:

  • All activities are in ready-to-print PDF files and DIGITAL VERSIONS. The digital versions include editable boxes; students just have to type their answers on those boxes, save their answers and send the files to the teacher.
  • This pack includes a Teacher’s Guide with all the activities and their corresponding answer keys, as well as the handouts for the students in separate files and suggestions on how to use this resource.
