✏️ How to Use the Reading Fluency and Comprehension Passages

Students begin by reading the title and passage at the top of the page. The Reading Fluency Passages use repetition and simple sentence patterns to support developing readers.

If needed, students can refer to the picture support column to help read unfamiliar words.

Students then answer two comprehension questions:

• Complete the sentence using the correct word
• Choose the correct answer (A or B)

Each question includes a color cue. Students can use this to highlight or underline the part of the text that supports their answer, helping them connect reading with comprehension.
