Lack of comprehension skills hinder a child’s ability to read and understand what is being read.

Comprehension Intervention was designed to help parents address the deficits associated with lack of comprehension skills. It begins with increasing parents’ awareness of the various reading genres, and then showing parents how to use comprehension strategies to help children understand literary elements and text structures. One of the key comprehension strategies is questioning; therefore, Comprehension Intervention guides parents in effective questioning of fiction and nonfiction texts, in order to inspire a deeper understanding of the various texts children read. Parents will be amazed at how much they will be able to help their children conduct close reading, and ultimately increase their comprehension skills simply by following the steps outlined in Comprehension Intervention.
