The Before You Read activities prepare students for reading by setting a purpose for reading. They stimulate background knowledge and experience, and guide students to make connections between what they know and what they will learn.
The After You Read activities check students' comprehension and extend their learning. Students are asked to give thoughtful consideration of the text through creative and evaluative short-answer questions and journal prompts.
Writing Tasks and Graphic Organizers are also included to further develop students’ critical thinking and writing skills, and analysis of the text. Assessment Rubrics are provided as a useful tool for evaluating students’ responses to the Writing Tasks and Graphic Organizers.
An Easy Marking Answer Key is provided with each resource. Marking students’ worksheets is fast and easy with the Answer Key. Answers in the Answer Key are listed in columns that line up with the corresponding worksheet. It’s that simple!
