Help pupils to ace the KS2 Reading SATs papers. Using a variety of carefully selected classic poems, children are given a greater understanding of poems to enable them to practise each of the eight Reading Content Domain question types that appear in the KS2 Reading SATs papers with confidence.
Each of the 12 classic poems is accompanied by eight sets of questions based on the Key Stage 2 (KS2) Reading Content Domains and National Curriculum. The accompanying activities help to guide children through the poems, providing them with opportunities to understand the poet's choice of vocabulary, widen their knowledge of synonyms, develop understanding of challenging language devices and practise their reading comprehension skills. Inference activities help hone inference skills and give an indication of the pupil's depth of understanding of the poem.
The clear structure and the author's passion for literature make�Developing Reading Comprehension Skills Years 5-6: Classic Poetry�invaluable for everyone working on poetry comprehension with 9-10 and 11-12 year old pupils. Support for teachers and parents who are homeschooling is built in with guidance for how to teach the different question types, plus suggestions for embedding these poems in the wider KS2 English curriculum. The teacher resources in this series are suitable for new and recently qualified teachers as well as those who are more experienced and looking to expand the range of texts they use as classroom practice materials for writing and for guided reading.
If you are a teacher, tutor or parent looking for a comprehensive resource to enhance reflective reading provision and teaching in your classroom or to support home education, this is exactly what you need.
