Comprehension (lower KS2) 

thank you for this resource

Homeschooling / private tutor of British expats children in the Netherlands during the lockdown. I have no other resources with me in the Netherlands other than what I find on the internet and teachers’ websites. I am trying to find pupils in the UK to teach them remotely from the Netherlands where I now live. I will start using the resources soon and let you have my review about them later.

For developing comprehension skills with my ESL Year 4 students.

Hi Elizabeth. Thank you for getting in touch. Whilst we agree it would be ideal to have a range of differentiated comprehensions for each text extract, we took the decision to have one comprehension task per text as a challenging preparation for the SATs for lower key stage 2 pupils. Differentiation is obviously different in every class and for higher attaining children the Upper KS2 pack might be better. For lower attaining children, please do search our site which has a wide range of individual comprehension activities. That said, all the resources within the pack can be edited to suit the needs of your class, if need be, whether that be shorter extracts or simplified questions. We hope the pack provides a starting point for teachers to save time in preparing for activities for their classes. Many thanks.

A really great resource but it would be helpful if the comprehension questions were differentiated
