Text differentiation

(CONTEXT) Act as a (year/subject) teacher.

(ACTION) Simplify the language in the text I have pasted below in triple colons. Consider the following options: Use simple words in place of complex words, shorten sentence length, and replace idioms with clear and literal language. Do not introduce any new content, and do not omit any key ideas. Keep your output a similar length to the original text.

(RESULT) Produce the adjusted text in paragraphs that cover the same content as the paragraphs in the original text.

(EXAMPLE) An example of a well-differentiated sentence is changing “When students are given the opportunity to choose their own texts, they are more likely to be motivated and engaged in their reading.” To “When students pick their own books, they’re more interested in reading”
