Description
Explore the pivotal causes of the Protestant Reformation with this set of differentiated reading passages designed for middle school social studies classrooms! Each passage examines the growing dissatisfaction with the Catholic Church, including the sale of indulgences, the influence of the printing press, and the role of reformers like Martin Luther. Students will gain a deeper understanding of the historical significance of these events and how they reshaped religion and society in Europe. Tailored to four different Lexile levels (300-600, 601-800, 801-900, and 900-1200), these readings ensure that all students can engage with the material at their appropriate reading level.
Each passage includes 4 multiple-choice questions and 2 short response questions to assess historical analysis and critical thinking, making these perfect for differentiation and supporting diverse learners. Whether you’re teaching about the Reformation, the Renaissance, or the impact of religious movements on world history, this resource will save you time while providing engaging, standards-aligned content.
