Comprehension Question Bookmark

A great resource for you to use to help parents support their child with their reading comprehension skills. Print the books marks off double backed and laminate ready to be sent home. This resource includes one bookmark in 5 different colours. There is a mini guide at the top of the bookmark for parents to explain that talking, discussing and questioning children about what they are reading is just as important as reading with them. There is also a suggestion to help to engage their child further with their reading comprehension by switching the person who chooses the questions about what has been read – how well was the adult listening to them? Can they answer the questions their child asks?

The book mark then includes examples of questions or question stems covering each of the following areas:
Vocabulary
Predictions
Retrieval
Inference
Summarise
Language and effect
Themes and comparisons

I hope that this resource helps you, your children and your parents to support the comprehension skills in your class.
