Description
The Jacob's Ladder Reading Comprehension Program: Nonfiction is designed to help high-ability learners develop reading comprehension skills through an inquiry-based approach. By working through this program, students in grade 5 will be able to understand and analyze nonfiction passages with confidence. Using a skill ladder system, students progress from basic understanding to critical analysis of texts, developing higher-order thinking skills along the way. The program includes high-interest readings, ladders to increase reading skill development, and easy-to-implement instructions. This teacher's guide is accompanied by optional student workbook packs for Science, Math, Social Studies, and Fiction/Nonfiction Comparisons. The program covers a range of language arts standards, including sequencing, cause and effect, classification, making generalizations, inference, understanding emotion, using and thinking about words, and recognizing themes and concepts.
