⭐️ 💫 Who, What, When, Where, Why…and How?! 💫 ⭐️ 

These are the questions we must answer every time we read a passage!

Sometimes it is easy to glance over words without fully comprehend their meaning, or without understanding what the author is trying to convey - but let’s get ready to change that!

In this reading comprehension class, we will read true short stories, and analyse them as a class to understand the Who, What, When, Where, Why, and How of the story 

This class is appropriate for High School grades (approximately 9th-12th), although students may wish to adjust their age range up or down depending on their individual skill level. Please contact me with any questions 

We will focus extensively on building vocabulary words, particularly those that frequently appear on “high stakes” testing such as the SAT, ACT, GCSE, and more.

⭐️ 💫 Together We Will ⭐️ 💫
- practice and take turns reading
- improve reading
- focus on reading to remember
- Discovering the: who, what, when, where, why, and how of each passage
- Work on reading closely
- Fiction comprehension: cause and effect
- Nonfiction comprehension: compare and contrast
- Expand our vocabulary 

We will also play word games to check for reading understanding 

Lessons will include games read along and reading comprehension questions to check reading for understanding.

I can also recommend homework and assignments so that you are able to continue honing your skills between our sessions. 

Students will receive the story as well as questions that they can answer after class.
