Reading Comprehension - KS2
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 |
