What grades is this intended for?
This was designed for a mixed-ability high school level. If you have strong middle schoolers and are willing to possibly tailor this a bit, if necessary, then it could work for lower grades. Please look over the description and preview closely to decide. 

What supports are included? How can I modify this?
Activities are built with included supports to accommodate varying needs: graphic organizers, step-by-step chunking, and audio read-aloud of passages. 

Student materials come in editable Google file versions to allow you to modify activities by shortening, re-leveling, translating, or using text-to-speech software to support student needs. 

Can I use this in a homeschooling setting?

Sure! While these activities were designed for a traditional classroom setting, they can also be used in a solo or small-group setting.
