What\’s Happened So Far?

Summarising will test literal comprehension and expose any misunderstandings that may have arisen.

What Does That Mean?

Try to have a children\’s dictionary to hand when reading. Pick out the longer words in the passage and ask your child to define them. Look up any words that your child struggles to define precisely.

Why Do You Think They Did That?

Understanding characters\’ motivations is key to understanding a passage and making predictions. This question challenges your child to make reasonable assumptions and draw upon what they\’ve learnt so far.

What Do You Think Will Happen Next? Why?

This question draws on your child\’s general knowledge and personal experience as well as their understanding of different genres. Make sure that any predictions are backed up with evidence.

Developing vocabulary is key to improving comprehension. That\’s why we developed our dedicated vocabulary hub, Wordier, to help.

Wordier provides everything you need to improve your child\’s vocabulary, from live online classes to workbooks and flashcards. Check out the range below.
