Story Trail: Reading Comprehension, Grades 2 to 3

Story Trail helps children who can read the words understand what they read. Each week Chris the Coyote and Ferris the Fox teach one reading strategy, from asking who, what and why to finding the main idea, following steps, spotting cause and effect, using text features and finding a fable's lesson. Every day has a new short story or guide to read and questions that send the reader back to the text. Every line is read aloud and every week is free.

• Ask and answer who, what, where, when, why and how questions
• Retell a story in order and describe its beginning, middle and end
• Describe how characters feel and respond to events
• Find the main topic and key details in nonfiction
• Spot sequence, problem and solution, and cause and effect
• Use text features, context clues and a fable's lesson to understand what you read

Free for every family. No card, ever.
