Comprehension Strategies Box 5

The Comprehension Box is a series of six resources suitable for primary school students. Each box contains a set of full-colour, differentiated literacy cards designed to support the teaching and learning of nine different comprehension strategies. These well-researched and proven strategies — predicting, visualising, making connections, questioning, clarifying, summarising, determining importance, inferring and synthesising — are compiled to help teachers unlock their students’ reading abilities.

Features:

• 162 cards in the box, colour-coded by strategy.
• Original texts across the cards and teacher guide, allowing students to experience a variety of fiction and non-fiction text types.
• Cater for all while learning the same strategies, with three differentiated reading levels by suggested Lexile ranges for each strategy, and a placement test provided to ascertain students’ starting point.
• Extensive support through a comprehensive teacher guide and an additional activity book with worksheets for all texts on the cards.
