Reading Comprehension Boosters

This program is designed to help students acquire the higher-level reading, reasoning and responding skills they need to cope with complex literacy demands, including high-stakes tests. The following key components of the book are - an overview and the motivational introduction to the program, 100 lessons designed to introduce and reinforce key skills and strategies for literacy, an end-of-theme reflection for the teacher which offers concrete suggestions for applying strategies taught in the unit to whole books and a culminating reflection for students in which they reflect on what they learned and how they can apply these new strategies and skills to school texts and outside reading.
