*** For some reason, when you download this product, the file name states that it is April’s passages. I have consulted with TpT support and we cannot figure out why it is doing that. If you wish, after downloading, you can simply change the file name to November instead of April. Sorry for the inconvenience! ***
*** Please note that the CCSS Lexile Levels for grades 2-4 are as follows. These passages may be a bit of a challenge for 2nd grade.***
2nd Grade 420-650
3rd Grade 520-820
