About this title

Synopsis

Reading for Comprehension has been a popular series since its inception. In this fourth edition, eleven or more articles at each level have been replaced, and all the materials have been updated. Although the look and design of the program are new, the same care has been taken with readability level and question structure as in previous editions. Readabilities were established using the Harris-Jacobson formula and widely used vocabulary lists; in level E, they range from early third grade to early fourth grade. Five of the six Level E questions are in a multiple-choice format and cover factual recall, vocabulary meaning from context, main idea, analogy, multiple-meaning words, simple inference, and classification. The final question on each page is an open-ended, higher-order critical thinking question designed to engage the student in lively interaction with the text. The Reading for Comprehension materials may be used in a group or individual setting. The narrative style of the nonfiction articles promotes literacy by appealing to older remedial and special education students as well as to younger pupils reading at the designated level.
