Description
Many children can read every word of a story, yet still struggle to understand its meaning. That's where this breakthrough series comes in! These lively books contain special "think-aloud" prompts that challenge children to predict, visualize, infer, connect, question, and more deeply understand a story's meaning. And research shows that teaching kids to reflect meaningfully on stories helps them develop instant comprehension skills they can apply to everything they read. Includes 60 full-color books (5 x 12 titles) plus a big teaching guide filled with lessons, strategies, and reproducibles to reinforce learning. A truly innovative resource!
