AI use case

Rewrite a reading passage at three reading levels

A great article or primary source is often written way above some students' reading level, and rewriting it by hand for each reading group takes hours.

1. Paste the original passage into the Modify Reading Level tool in Microsoft's Teach (part of Microsoft 365 Copilot for education), or into a general chatbot like ChatGPT.
2. Pick the target grade level, and list the key vocabulary words that must stay in the text even if they are hard.
3. Turn on the glossary option, or ask the chatbot for one, so students get simple definitions of those key words at the end.
4. Read each version yourself and ask for fixes, such as shorter sentences or a clearer explanation, before you hand it out. Repeat for each reading group.
5. Microsoft's support guide gives the example of a social studies teacher turning a university-level primary source into a version lower secondary students can read.
