NO PREP READING COMPREHENSION Passages/Stories for SUMMER includes 40 simple (a mix of fiction and non-fiction) stories/passages to help with fluency, comprehension and building reading confidence for a Summer Review! These Comprehension Checks can be used during the summer with 1st Grade students, struggling 2nd Grade students, or as a beginning of the year review for 2nd Graders!There are 3 Accountability Stars at the top of the page. Students can color a star each time they read a story. This ensures that they are reading the story at least 3 times to encourage fluency. After completing the Comprehension Check, students can color a star on the Reading Comprehension and Fluency Tracker. Each passage/story will have Comprehension Checks with 5 Comprehension Questions. These simple comprehension questions provide students with an opportunity to look back at the text and use complete sentences. This option is more effective than the “fill in the bubble” method. In addition, students will use the color code to look back in the text (text evidence) and highlight the answers.
