Animal Rescue

Students will read and/or listen to 4 different texts that tell stories of animals in danger. Students will collect information about the pros and cons of helping animals in need. Then, they will write an opinion piece stating whether it is harmful or helpful to rescue animals, clearly supporting their opinion with evidence from the texts.

I love this! My only challenge is that I cannot find the NewsELA articles that are listed as two of the articles and there are no links to them. Could you please help? My whole team would love to use this immediately if we could get our hands on the NewsELA articles. Sincerely, Jennifer Parks jennifer.parks@ashland.k12.or.us
