Reading Intervention Practice Using Space-Themed Informational Texts.
These space-themed reading passages are designed for special education and reading intervention settings where students need structured practice with fluency, comprehension, and IEP-aligned reading goals.
This resource uses high-interest science topics as a motivating context for literacy practice, while keeping the instructional focus on reading skills rather than science content.
Students read short informational passages, answer comprehension questions, and track their progress over time using an included IEP progress monitoring tool.

It is not intended as a science lesson and does not require prior science knowledge.
This resource supports foundational ELA skills commonly addressed in reading standards for informational text (such as reading for meaning, answering questions about a text, and building vocabulary in context). However, it is designed specifically for IEP-based instruction and reading intervention, rather than grade-level whole-class pacing.
