    This has been a great find. I love the stories and so do my students. I have particularly found the nondiction passages wonderful – the ones which appear in their reading books are often bland and not engaging – and so do my students. They’re learning so much and it’s stirring their curiosity to do their digging about the topics they most enjoy.

    Since comprehension questions in our part of the world are not mcqs – they are usuallyquestions which require short answers – I usually dowload the passages and prepare my own questions, with maybe one or two mcqs from your question bank thrown in. Thus, my students cannot find answers and it makes them do the hard work of comprehending the passages.

    I also underline some of the words and phrases and ask them to find words or phrases which mean the same and can replace them in the passage – that’s another important component of questions asked on reading comprehension passages in my part of the world, Ghana. Maybe those complaining about cheaters can use some of these strategies. They can also tweak the questions on this site to do away with cheating.

    Mr. Morton, you’re amazing. Love, love this site. My students and I are the better for it.

    My students has searched and found the answer keys to these readings. I wish there was a way the teacher’s could sign in for the content and keep the cheaters from having the honest kids miss out on these readings. What has our world gone to. This is so sad that my students would copy answers word for word and expect to get a 100% as well as their parents. We are growing a nation of untruth and cheaters.

    • Yeah, that is pretty frustrating.

      It’s tough to keep the content free and open while preventing students from finding the answers.

      One thing that might help is downloading the .RTF file and editing the titles of the assignments.
      A persistent student will still be able to find the answers, but that may make it a little harder.

      Also, remember, cheaters are only cheating themselves!
      And the system and everyone else too, but mainly themselves!
      Best wishes!

      Hi Ma’am Dolores. That happened to me years ago during the MDL (modular distance learning) in our country, Philippines. You know what I did, I shorten my URLs and add number 1 at the end of it. This way, they can no longer trace my resources.

    You, My Friend, have a guaranteed slot in heaven for sharing all of this amazing material.

    I am a middle school remedial reading teacher and finding supplemental material for our students is always a challenge. Your content will be so helpful!

    Thank you for your generosity. I have liked and am following your FB page, and I’ve already referred several of my teacher friends to check this out.

    People like you make the world a better place.

    I wish you all the success in the world, and hopefully some advertisers so you can start getting some money for all of this content.
