Key Stage 2 Comprehension provides a unique collection of stimulating texts that
appeal strongly to both boys and girls, together with questions that both build
and stretch comprehension skills and widen vocabulary. Comprising four one-per-
child activity books and providing more than 72 texts in total, the series encou
rages children to pay close attention to literal meaning, make inferences and de
ductions, observe how writing is structured and identify literary devices. Each
text has been allocated a National Curriculum 'level' which appears in the Teach
ing notes and Cross-curricular content charts, and allows you to model the compr
ehension process through guided reading.
This Teacher's Guide provides you wi
th all you need to use Key Stage 2 Comprehension to its full potential, includin
g: full teaching notes for every text including an introduction and answers, fur
ther activities which may be adapted for individual or group work, at least one
speaking and listening activity for each text, cross-curricular contents charts
which also indicate the level of each text, a photocopiable group record sheet f
or each activity book and a handy summary of the comprehension objectives listed
in the Primary Framework.
