Free Reading Activities & Resources
Ereading Worksheets provides teachers, parents, and motivated students with high-quality reading worksheets, activites, and resources aligned with Common Core State Standards. This website uses a skill focused approach where each activity targets a specific set of skills. The resources on this website cover a broad range of reading, writing, and language arts skills and everything is ad supported and completely free of cost. I designed most of the activities on this site to be used with my 7th and 8th grade students, but when possible I have included .rtf files which you may use to edit and modify each assignment for your particular use. I believe that the assignments on this website are most appropriate for students grade 6-12, but with a few modifications these activities can be adapted for any grade level. I am committed to expanding and improving the content on this site and have begun to embrace an all digital assignment format that I call the “Ereading Worksheet.”
