    Reading Comprehension – Key Stage Two

    In Key Stage Two, Reading Comprehension is taught to the whole class daily. A class text is used and explored through both whole class and focus group teaching. The reading characters are used as the main driver of these sessions. Children are expected to analyse texts closely in order to be able to:

     
    2a Give / explain the meaning of words in context
    2b Retrieve and record information / identify key details from fiction and non-fiction
    2c Summarise main ideas from more than one paragraph
    2d Make inferences from the text / explain and justify inferences with evidence from the text
    2e Predict what might happen from details stated and implied
    2f Identify / explain how information / narrative content is related and contributes to meaning as a whole
    2g Identify / explain how meaning is enhanced through choice of words and phrases
    2h Make comparisons within the text
