Best Practices in Reading Level G helps students working at a 7th grade level improve their reading comprehension and critical thinking skills. Whether you are working with a new reader or remediating an older or struggling student, you will appreciate how easy these books are to use. Expect these lessons to involve some one-on-one targeted teaching time.
Lessons open referencing a Strategy Resource that is not in the student workbook or pdf Teacher Guide. These are essential to the lesson as they introduce the reading strategy in the lesson. It is a digital free resource. Here is a link for you. Several pages show a few sentences to read at the top and space to show you understood below, either by drawing a picture or answering a question. Students read a mix of fiction and non-fiction for this practice. Colorful photos and illustrations add interest and context.
Students practice taking a multiple-choice quiz after completing a hands-on lab activity. You will need some items for this: a large jar, sand, dirt, small plants, water, leaves, rocks, thin cloth, rubber band, and worms (optional).
Two practice tests in the back test vocabulary in context and reading comprehension, making this a good option for standardized test prep. Includes targeted instruction in these key reading strategies: draw conclusions, make connections, make inferences, make predictions, question, understand genre, and visualize.
Not reproducible. Pages are not perforated. You will be emailed a link for the pdf Teacher Guide and Answer Key. ~Sara
