Description

Reading Comprehension - PART 3

Age Group : 6 years and over

The material has been designed for children who can read words or sentences but have difficulty organizing meaning, connecting information, and answering comprehension questions. The approach is not limited to decoding but focuses on the gradual development of functional comprehension through simple, clear, and repeated structures.

The activities begin with basic causal sentences and progress to more complex forms of processing, such as emotion recognition, chronological sequence, spatial organization, and predicting the development of a story. In this way, the child learns to identify explicit information, understand cause-and-effect relationships, and connect events with internal states.

The book uses everyday situations, short texts, illustrated scenes, and a consistent question format, so that practice is predictable, understandable, and easy to apply. It is a useful tool for speech therapy sessions, special education, shadow teaching, or structured work at home.

Bibliography

Author

Alice Kassotaki - Speech Language Pathologist MSc, BSc

Writing is a solitary affair, and that's something I enjoy most of the time. Of course, I equally enjoy the company of my young and older students.

I started working as a speech therapist in 2000. Thirteen years later, I wrote the first book. I wanted to share the knowledge and personal experience I have gained over the years. I have not stopped writing since then, and at the same time, I continue to practice my profession. One complements the other. The children show me the way, and I join them in easy and challenging paths.
