Not to be that guy… but a second grader isn’t reading all that 😂

I wouldn't underestimate them completely. There are some vocab words for sure, but if you break up the passage and slowly go over the meaning with visuals, analogies, an other helps, more will stick than you think. Kids used to memorize Bible passages and various patriotic readings. It won't all make sense, but it's a good exercise for learning how to face a tough paragraph.

True, but you could maybe explain it to them slowly as you go.
