This is such a fun and effective way to give students meaningful practice with main idea and supporting details!

In this match-up game, students must truly analyze supporting details and determine which main idea they belong to. It goes beyond surface-level matching and really pushes students to think. 

The game is easy to differentiate, making it a great fit for a variety of learning needs in your classroom.

There are 15 stories included. The stories are organized into 3 sets, with each set sharing the same topic. Within each set, students will find 3 different main ideas, each with its own set of supporting details. Because the topics are the same, students must carefully analyze the details to sort and match them to the correct main idea using the provided work mats.

You are going to love how engaging and rigorous this game is for your students!
