Struggling to find a nonfiction reading intervention that actually targets a specific comprehension skill?
The Main Idea & Key Details Reading Comprehension Intervention Toolkit is designed to support below-grade-level readers as they learn how to identify the main idea of an informational text and determine which details truly matter.
This skill-focused intervention uses intentionally leveled nonfiction passages that remove unnecessary barriers so students can concentrate on understanding, organizing, and synthesizing information. Each passage features familiar topics, age-appropriate content, and controlled vocabulary, allowing students to build confidence while strengthening a foundational comprehension skill.
Whether you’re working 1:1, in small groups, during intervention blocks, or for targeted test prep, this toolkit provides a structured, repeatable system that makes main idea instruction clear, explicit, and effective.
This ready-to-use Paragraph Writing: Topic Sentences resource takes the guesswork out of teaching this essential skill, with engaging, scaffolded activities that guide students from identifying the main idea to crafting clear, connected topic sentences.
With these Topic Sentences Teacher Lesson Slides, you’ll have a ready-to-use lesson plan that walks students through what a topic sentence is, why it matters, and how to write one that clearly connects to the rest of the paragraph.
These Topic Sentences Student Practice Slides take the guesswork out of instruction by providing engaging, step-by-step practice that teaches students how to craft clear, connected, and purposeful topic sentences.

Explicitly teaching supporting details doesn’t have to feel overwhelming. With these Supporting Details Teacher Lesson Slides, you’ll have step-by-step lessons that model exactly what supporting details are, how to choose them, and how to use them to strengthen paragraphs.
Teaching the concept is one thing—giving students enough practice to apply it is another. That’s where the Supporting Details Student Practice Slides come in. These interactive digital slides give students hands-on practice with every part of writing supporting details, from choosing strong ones to writing their own.
Getting students to write strong, connected supporting details is one of the hardest parts of paragraph writing. Without them, even the best topic sentences fall flat—and paragraphs quickly turn vague, repetitive, or incomplete. This Supporting Details Bundle gives you everything you need to explicitly teach, model, and practice supporting details with your students.
This resource includes everything you will need to practice main idea and key details with your students! I’ve included THREE DIFFERENT LEVELS OF EACH PASSAGE for you to easily differentiate in your classroom! There are also thinking maps, multiple choice questions, and short-answer questions for your students to practice main idea and key details.
