I am so excited to be bringing you this book of 240 comprehension organizers that can be used over and over to respond to specific comprehension skills from any book!
That's right, these organizers are designed to be used with any book the students are reading.
They work GREAT in centers, small groups and during independent reading time after a comprehension mini lesson.
Since students use their own reading materials to respond to the organizers, this book is appropriate for grades 2-8.
There are 12 Reading Comprehension Resources Included in the Book:
- Analyzing
- Background Knowledge
- Cause and Effect
- Comparing
- Inferring
- Judging
- Making Connections
- Making Predictions
- Metacognition
- Questioning
- Summarizing
- Synthesizing
Ideas to Use the Organizers:
- As daily morning work to review comprehension skills.
- During guided reading small groups.
- During independent reading time or centers.
- To work with partners and small groups.
- As an assessment for teachers to monitor students’ comprehension abilities.
- As homework review sheets.
- As a quick and fun 10-minutes time filler.
- As ‘when you’re finished’ additional work for students.
- To use with substitute teachers.
I hope you and your students enjoy this book for years to come!
