Comprehension Resources Round Up

All Freebies

Comprehension is important, but not always a given when a child reads. Sometimes so much effort is spent trying to figure out the words that the meaning is lost. It is important to provide children with comprehension strategies and resources to help them.

 

 

Aha Moments

Teachers get very excited when children have “aha moments”.  It is so rewarding to see them gain confidence and realize that they can do it. With the right materials, activities, and support, they are able to develop the necessary skills to achieve success.

Here are some resources that help children practice concepts and improve their understanding of what they read.
