Product Details
Gr. 2-4
A complete, multilevel, easy-to-use junior primary comprehension kit in a box. The box contains carefully leveled cards that provide graded texts and related exercises. There are 10 cards in each of the 15 color levels. Within each color level a variety of text types are presented. A simple 9-minute leveling test can be used to assign students to an appropriate starting level. After students have finished reading the source material on the card, they undertake a set of comprehension questions that utilize the “here, hidden, and head” strategy. Questions are also graded to match the appropriate reading level. The back page of each card devotes itself to building English skills that relate to the reading text on the front of the card. Students record their answers onto a photocopied answer sheet (master provided) or write answers in their excercise book. Once a card is completed, students mark their own work using the source card’s respective answer card. Students successfully complete all cards in a color level before moving up to the next level. Guidelines for promotion to next level are outlined in the teacher’s manual. A list of recommendations for modeled writing is also provided. Features high-interest activities to develop skills in literal, interpretive, inferential, and critical levels of reading comprehension. A range of strategies and topics have been employed to motivate and stimulate both boys and girls. The kit is self-paced and self-marked, enhancing the operation of reading groups. Provides a wide range of reading comprehension activities that are drawn from many text types, including: narratives, recounts, descriptions, procedures, explanations, expositions, discussions, poetry, maps, e-mail messages, letter of agreement, magazine-style articles, advertisements, visual texts, and more. Includes 150 cards printed on quality laminated card stock measuring 8-3/4" x 11-3/4". Also comes with a reproducible practice card, 10 leveling tests, and 40-page teacher’s manual.
