Students compare and contrast information in reading passages and grasp the meaning of what they read.
Students become purposeful, active readers as they develop six research-based reading comprehension skills. Each book in this research-based set has 11 reading lessons with three levels of controlled readability: 2.0-2.9, 3.0-3.9, and 4.0-4.9. Each lesson consists of a one-page, illustrated reading passage and two pages of these reading comprehension tasks:
- questions to detect the main idea and identify details
- questions about vocabulary and semantics
- questions targeting the comprehension skill for each book
- formulate a question related to the story topic
- a writing activity
The reading comprehension questions are similar to those found on classroom and national reading comprehension tests. Questions challenge students to think about the reading passage and use reasoning skills. Most of the questions are multiple-choice with some true/false and oral response questions.
