Besides offering comprehension practice, students are introduced to a variety of historical events, scientific discoveries, and pop culture icons. On the back of each short reading is the opportunity to practice skills such as making inferences, sequencing, comparing, cause and effect, finding the main idea, fact vs opinion, drawing conclusions, and identifying context.
