***NOW INCLUDES BOTH SPANISH AND FRENCH TRANSLATIONS!!!***

Comprehension Construction Toolkits provide your elementary students with simple, hands-on applications of key comprehension skills. These kits are ideal for small group guided reading as students build and discuss components of the text as a group.

The routines appeal to visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learners because students are provided a visual, yet concrete way to “build” each piece of the text as they comprehend and explain it. They can further demonstrate their understanding by writing or drawing on the provided graphic organizers for each skill. The graphic organizers can either be copied or placed inside reusable page protectors for students to write and wipe responses.

Multi-sensory literacy tasks are supported by the Science of Reading!

Includes the following 21 comprehension and word word skills for K-3rd grade:

    My students loved having their own toolkits to tackle reading. They were actively engaged, and able to “teach” the strategies to their fellow classmates using the models they created for confidence. -Pam Lewis

    I haven’t found a product of yours that I don’t love yet. My students think that this is so much fun!! They love the days when I add comprehension construction as an option during our Lit. Block. -Leah S.

  3. Shelly P.

    I love this product! It truly compliments any reading series, and my 2nd graders LOVE to build. It helps them to check their thinking and responses. My kiddos get so disappointed if they come to my guided reading table and cannot use them that day! -Shelly P.

    Really excited for this product. Saw it and used it in another classroom and loved it! I am most excited for the word work section even though it’s small. This provides a list of supplies, worksheets and how to use them for each skill. -Julie G.

    Comprehension construction is a hands-on way to have students build their understanding of what they read. This is a great addition to guided reading groups. -Michelle C.

  10. Zoey B.

    As a first year teacher, this toolkit helped me understand how to support my learners during small group instruction. I love the hands on approaches and I have used my toolkit and binder from this kit for the last 5 years! -Zoey B.

  11. Stephanie Wu

    This set is genius! I wish I had discovered it sooner. My kids absolutely love using manipulatives to piece together their language arts lessons. -Stephanie Wu

  12. Lisa W.

    Takes some time and resources to create, but it is a great hands-on intervention for reading standards for my struggling students. -Lisa W.

  13. Aisling C.

    I love this resource, especially because it is so visual. It is quite easy to put together and the resources needed are inexpensive. My students now look forward to reading and comprehension thanks to this wonderful resource. -Aisling C.

  14. Shasta H.

    My students love using these! They give them a chance to be hands on and still working on their comprehension! My boys especially enjoy the chance to build something! -Shasta H.

  15. Darcy H.

    I didn’t make these until November and I couldn’t find the sterlite cases cheap enough, so I went to the dollar store and found a tupperware style container to hold the manipulatives. It’s working great. The kids love these and for my title kids and other struggling readers, this is a great kinesthetic approach to comprehension. I was even formally evaluated using these manipulatives for my teacher evaluation. My evaluator loved it. We recently went to distance learning, and my parents are really impressed with these. -Darcy H.
