Help students practice writing literature analysis while giving them meaningful student choice.
This middle school ELA differentiated writing project allows students to demonstrate their understanding of informational writing through three different response pathways. Each pathway aligns with CCSS RI.7.1, RI.7.2, RI.7.3, and RI.7.4, and supports students in organizing ideas, using evidence, and communicating information clearly.
Students choose one of three differentiated pathways (Option A, B, or C) to complete a writing project that fits their strengths while still demonstrating mastery of the standard.
This resource is designed to be simple, flexible, and easy to implement for writing instruction, independent work, or project-based learning.
This resource also supports students in planning, organizing, and completing a full writing task from start to finish.
This resource includes:
✔ Differentiated student choice project
✔ Planning organizer for structured writing support
✔ Standards-aligned grading rubric
✔ Color classroom version
✔ Print-friendly black and white version
✔ Standards-aligned objectives (RI.7.1, RI.7.2, RI.7.3, RI.7.4)
✔ Printable student writing workspace (color + black & white)
Perfect for:
• Middle school writing assignments
• Informational text citing practice
• Differentiated instruction
• Writing projects and performance tasks
• Independent or guided writing practice
Grades: Middle School ELA
Standard:
RI.7.1 - Cite several pieces of textual evidence to support analysis of what the text says explicitly as well as inferences drawn from the text.
RI.7.2 - Determine two or more central ideas in a text and analyze their development over the course of the text; provide an objective summary of the text.
RL.7.3 - Analyze the interactions between individuals, events, and ideas in a text (e.g., how ideas influence individuals or events, or how individuals influence ideas or events).
RI.7.4 -Determine the meaning of words and phrases as they are used in a text, including figurative, connotative, and technical meanings; analyze the impact of a specific word choice on meaning and tone.
