Maestra's Memo: What is an "adapted text?" An adapted text is a version of an original text that has been modified or altered to make it more accessible or suitable for a specific audience or purpose. This can involve simplifying language, adding visuals, or making other changes to enhance understanding and engagement. Essentially, it's a text that has been deliberately changed from its original form
