Reading Comprehension for Grade 4

Image
  Reading comprehension for grade 4 involves understanding longer and more detailed texts. Students analyze the text for main ideas, supporting details, cause and effect, and inferences. Here’s an example: Passage: The sun was setting as Mia and her brother, Alex, reached the top of the hill. They had been hiking all afternoon, and now they could see the entire valley below. The trees looked like tiny green dots, and the river sparkled in the fading sunlight. “It was worth the climb,” said Alex, smiling. Mia nodded, feeling proud of their effort. They unpacked their sandwiches and watched as the sky turned shades of orange and pink. Questions: Why were Mia and Alex hiking? What did they see when they reached the top of the hill?

The Tortoise and the Hare

Image
Once upon a time, there lived a tortoise and a hare. The hare, who was very fast, always teased the slow tortoise. "Ha, ha, ha! Even a snail is faster than you!" he said. The tortoise did not like the teasing one bit. Finally, he decided to do something about it. "Let's have a race, " he said. The hare fell down laughing. "OK, but you know I will win," he said. "We will see," said the tortoise. On the day of the big race, all of the animals came to watch. "On your mark, get set, go!" said the fox. The hare hopped. Fast, fast, fast. The tortoise walked. Slow, slow, slow. The hare hopped. Fast, fast, fast. The tortoise walked. Slow, slow, slow. Soon the hare was way ahead of the tortoise. "Ha, ha, ha! I can take a nap and still wake up in time to beat the tortoise," said the hare. So he did. Snore, snore, snore. But as the hare napped, the tortoise walked Slow, slow, slow. And guess what?

Phonics Workbook for the phonics screening check

Image
 Phonics in the Foundation Stage (Ages 3 to 5) Phonics is the relationship between sounds (phonemes) and letters or groups of letters (graphemes). Learning phonics involves listening to sounds, recognising sounds and discriminating between sounds as well as learning how sounds are represented by letters. When first learning phonics, children should have many opportunities to enjoy listening to and reading stories, poems, songs and rhymes, as well as information books about topics that interest them. How this book is organised Letters of the alphabet (p. 6-13) introduces upper- and lower-case letters, in order, by name. You could use these terms with your child or capital letters' and "lower-case letters' (as there is no other simple term for "lower-case'*). The letters are introduced in a way that helps children learn letter formation as well as position in the alphabet. There are further activities on the letters of the alphabet at later stages of the book (p. 28...
