COMPREHENSION STRATEGIES ARE A SERIES OF SIX BOOKS USING MODELING, GUIDED, AND INDEPENDENT PRACTICE TO TEACH STUDENTS STRATEGIES THEY CAN USE TO DEVELOP DIFFERENT COMPREHENSION SKILLS. MANY IMPORTANT COMPREHENSION SKILLS ARE EMPHASIZED IN EACH BOOK: SUCH AS; UNDERSTANDING WORDS, FINDING INFORMATION, IDENTIFYING THE MAIN IDEA, SEQUENCING, FINDING SIMILARITIES AND DIFFERENCES, PREDICTING, CONCLUDING, SUMMARIZING, INFERRING, CAUSE AND EFFECT, FACT OR OPINION, AND POINT OF VIEW AND PURPOSE. THE EXERCISES ARE WRITTEN NOT TO TEST, BUT TO STIMULATE AND CHALLENGE STUDENTS AND TO HELP THEM TO DEVELOP THEIR THINKING PROCESSES. EACH BOOK COMES WITH A TEACHER’S GUIDE THAT PROVIDES THE INDICATORS, BACKGROUND INFORMATION, AND ANSWERS FOR EACH UNIT.
