Reading To Succeed

Sometimes a student is able to read, but is not able to understand what he is reading. Without comprehension skills, the act of reading is frustrating. The sentences just don’t make sense and learning the material through reading doesn’t happen.  

It’s not unusual for a student to complete the primary grades without having developed solid comprehension skills.  In the upper grades, when more independent learning through reading is assigned, this lack of skills becomes apparent as the student falls behind in class.  Not only is the student lacking the necessary skills, but also he may have little or no background knowledge of the new topics to help him relate to the material, to become interested in it and focus upon what he is reading.    

Reading comprehension is necessary for the effective study of all subjects as well as for the effective following of a story for enjoyment.
