建構反應寫作：培養基本技能（3-5 年級）

Does your child need help writing thorough answers to text-based questions? This engaging 5-week course teaches students the thinking process needed to write clear, well-supported responses using evidence from their reading.

This course is part of the COMPREHENSION AND REASONING SKILLS series, designed to help students develop critical reading skills through focused strategy instruction.

What Makes This Class Different:
