 In
teaching reading
comprehension it is good to begin with the basics.
Vocabulary building is a good first step in contributing to reading
comprehension in young students. When the vocabulary is set in a
good foundation, comprehension follows more easily.
Begin with a lesson in word matching. For example, have students
complete a worksheet on “matching opposites.”
Example: Match list A with list B
List A
· Far
· Black
· Hard
· Close
List B
· White
· Open
· Near
· Soft
Another good lesson in reading comprehension is to have your students
practice fill in the blank sentences.
Example:
She made put pink frosting on the freshly baked ___________.
Building / hamburger / birthday cake / skates
A variation on the above would be to have the student choose ALL
the possible answers:
He wore his favorite _________ to the football game.
Jersey / sneakers / house / hat
