This class was designed around the concerns parents expressed about the Common Core standards as well as standardized testing questions which result in Reading Comprehension skill sets. We use professional material from Houghton Mifflin Publishing Co, which only sells to schools. The Reading Comprehension classes will focus on test taking strategies. Each student will take a Pre Test and conclude the course with a Post Test. Included in the class are the following: identifying the main idea, scanning for details, decoding vocabulary, interpreting graphics, reading actively, and understanding fiction and nonfiction selections, taking notes, making rough outlines, and using graphing organizers and charts. This course will help provide students with the necessary techniques and practices to help strengthen their reading comprehension skills.
