Skill Sharpeners: Reading, Grade 2 puts fifteen short stories in front of a child, then asks the questions that show what actually landed.
What's inside
Each story gets worked three ways: comprehension questions, a vocabulary exercise, and putting the events back into order.
Word families, phonics, synonyms and antonyms, alphabetical order and contractions ride along underneath rather than arriving as drills.
A downloadable teaching guide comes with it, carrying pacing suggestions and extension ideas for an adult who wants to push further.
Who it's for
Small group teachers and tutors reach for it most. The reading sits early in second grade, so a confident reader will find it kind rather than stretching.
