The Comprehension Strategies Box

The Comprehension Strategies Box is a set of six boxes suitable for children aged 5-11+. 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 pupils’ reading abilities.

The Comprehension Strategies Box caters for all pupils while learning the same strategies, with three differentiated reading levels by suggested Lexile® ranges for each strategy, and a placement test provided to ascertain pupils’ starting point.

Features:

Six copies of each text card allows focused group work, while independent groups/stations are catered for with activity sheets specific to each text.
Original texts across the cards and Teacher Guide, allowing pupils to experience a variety of fiction and non-fiction text types.
Extensive support through a comprehensive Teacher Guide and an additional Activity Book with worksheets for all texts on the cards.
