Mixed Questions
The mixed questions section of each lesson includes a variation of five comprehension, vocabulary and math questions. In addition, key reading strategies are frequently covered including cause & effect, summarizing, compare & contrast and making conclusions.
Two or three of the questions will be MCQs and other questions will require a written response of some kind.
Full answers and example responses appear at the end of the lesson.
Spelling & Vocab
Each reading passage contains a variety of words and phrases designed for Grade 4-5 students. Spelling and vocab activities provide the opportunity to build fluency with these words.

Writing Prompts
Writing prompts are designed to continue the theme or lessons learned in the story.
Students are persuaded to write in a variety of ways and each prompt includes several cues to help.
As with the spelling/vocab section, writing prompts will vary. This includes research pieces, reading responses, poetry and creative writing prompts.
Full Answer Keys
Full answer keys and sample responses are provided so no matter how busy you are, you know you're covered!
Mixed question answers provide evidence from the text, math questions contain the relevant workings.
Answers are designed for use by the teacher, but also suitable as a handout to the student.
Just for Fun
