This is a collection of passages designed to be used for fluency instruction in grade 7. Developed by Lisa Rogers, Laura Bross, Ayesatta Conteh, Marissa Griese, Teresa Oud, and Catherine Shawana, each passage focuses on a topic associated with a curriculum expectation across content areas.
Content was carefully considered to ensure that it shares perspectives that have been underrepresented, it sparks students to think critically, and it reflects some of the history, values and experiences of diverse individuals who live, or have lived, in the place we now call Canada.
The passages are purposefully written to flexibly support a variety of different instructional routines (Quick Fluency Routine, repeated reading, partner reading/paragraph shrinking). Each passage has a teacher summary page with sections that support multisyllabic decoding, vocabulary, morphology, and syntax instruction.

This is such an amazing document!!!! I am using it in my 6/7 class a part of our fluency routine. I am also hoping to use this as a focus for writing using ThinkSRSD. Thank you so much for this incredible resource.
The Grade 7 Fluency Passage document is a clearly organized, data‑driven resource that is easy to implement. Its cross‑curricular passages ensure students build fluency while reinforcing learning from multiple subject areas. The included graphs are a student favourite, helping them visualize their progress and stay motivated. Many of my students are so proud of their improvement that they take their charts home to share with family. Overall, it’s an engaging, effective, and well‑crafted tool that truly supports reading growth.
Hello! I cant seem to find the link to the template for the explicit vocab instruction that you mentioned is in the front matter.
Thank you for your feedback. We are dispirited that we missed these errors, but are able to make needed corrections quickly.
Hi,
I did not look at all resources this closely, but I notices that the syntax lesson on page 45 is not correct. That would be a colon. Also, the morphology on page 60 (protect) should be pro (in front of) and tect (from tegere, meaning to cover), so protect is to cover before…. I am not sure yet if there are other issues.
Also, page 48. Geographic is geo (earth) and graph (to write, draw or record).
