AI Text Scaffolder for Elementary School
Elementary students often have the curiosity to engage with complex texts but need support accessing the language. The AI Text Scaffolder adds vocabulary glosses, simple sentence starters, and stop-and-check prompts directly into any text, so K-5 students work with the same content as their peers, with just the right level of support alongside it.
How Elementary School Teachers Use This
Shared Reading Differentiation
Add scaffolds to a shared reading text so the whole class reads the same passage, some with vocabulary glosses and sentence starters, some without. Everyone participates in the same discussion.
Science and Social Studies Texts
Content-area texts in grades 3-5 contain dense informational language. Add margin glosses for key vocabulary and comprehension probes between sections so students build understanding as they read.
ELL Read-Aloud Support
Add cultural context annotations and simplified sentence frames to texts used with English Language Learners, so students follow the content while building academic English vocabulary.
Centers and Station Work
Differentiate reading stations by providing scaffolded versions to some groups and unscaffolded versions to others, all reading the same text, all able to participate in the follow-up discussion.
Read-Along Passages
Add comprehension probes after each paragraph of a longer text so students check their understanding as they go rather than waiting until the end to realize they lost the thread.
Home Reading Support
Send home scaffolded versions of classroom texts for students who benefit from support during independent reading at home, without creating a separately easier text.
