My Project

My students look forward to our Reading Group time! This is the time when we get more personalized attention on our level with the teacher. This is the time when students really focus on applying learned comprehension skills. And it is the time to have fun reading!

It is my goal to make Reading Group a time that is meaningful and engaging- and these comprehension skill kits will help me do just that!

We are looking forward to practicing skills like compare/contrast, main idea, and text features with these kits, and we thank you in advance for your help in achieving our goal!
