Reading Detective® 3-Book Set
Description & Features
The standards-based critical thinking activities of Reading Detective®
develop the analysis, synthesis, and vocabulary skills children need for
exceptional reading comprehension. The activities are especially effective
at helping children understand more challenging reading concepts such as
drawing inferences, making conclusions, determining cause-and-effect, and
using context clues to define vocabulary.
Students read and analyze short literature passages and stories that include fiction and nonfiction
genres. Then they answer multiple-choice and short-response questions, citing sentence evidence
to support their answers.
The grades 3–4 (Beginning) level is organized into single-skill units with
a concluding mixed-skills unit. The grades 5–6 (A1) and 7–8 (B1) levels
include mixed-skills throughout. All levels provide an introductory lesson
for each skill.
Teaching Support Includes pretests, post-tests, lesson guidelines, and answers with detailed evidence. Reading and literary analysis skills are based on grade-level standards.
