Targeting Comprehension Student Workbook Year 5

A good understanding of comprehension is essential for effective writing and communication. The Targeting Comprehension series teaches students how to read between the lines. This book contains activities for Literal and Inferential comprehension. Literal comprehension is simply what the text says whereas Inferential comprehension interprets ideas, intent or information in explicit text to make assumptions.

The activities in this book are intended to teach students how to hypothesise and conclude using their personal experience and intuition. In other words
- how to read between the lines. Each of the following elements of comprehension is explained in separate sections and use three sample text types. These are; informative, imaginative and persuasive.
- Literal: understanding information and facts directly stated in the text
- Inferring: making assumptions based on context
- Predicting: extrapolating where aspects of a text may lead
- Analysing: interpreting the unstated notions behind what is written
- Making connections: finding links between two elements of a text
- Critical reflection: drawing on own experience and knowledge to gain insight into characters
- Synthesis: merging new information with existing knowledge to create new ideas

Also included is an assessment section for each of the six comprehension elements and removable answers.
