<strong>Reading</strong> in Context<br />

A Practical <strong>Reading</strong> <strong>Comprehension</strong> Program for All Students<br />

Grades 6-12+, ELL • <strong>Reading</strong> Level 4<br />

This dynamic series was designed for students who<br />

still have trouble understanding what they read. All<br />

lessons (16 in each worktext) feature a two-page<br />

reading selection followed by four <strong>pages</strong> of correlated<br />

exercises. The emphasis is on variety for maximum<br />

interest and involvement - traditional reading comprehension<br />

skills, language arts skills (e.g. vocabulary,<br />

syllabication, variant word forms, etc.) and critical<br />

thinking skills. For maximum efficiency, the easy-touse<br />

worktext format combines the instructional core<br />

of a textbook with the built-in response mode of a<br />

workbook. A systematic, incremental teaching method<br />

promotes progress by steadily building confidence.<br />

Student books are <strong>112</strong>-<strong>pages</strong>.<br />

The Teacher’s Manuals introduce the program and its<br />

design. Included are teaching tips, answer keys, ideas for<br />

cooperative learning, homework assignments, a reproducible<br />

course completion certificate, a classroom chart<br />

for recording student progress, suggestions for lesson<br />

extensions, and more. Teacher’s Manuals are 16-<strong>pages</strong>.<br />
