Fourth Grade Talking Points

• "Reading comprehension is about understanding what we read. It's like solving a puzzle by putting all the pieces together."
• "When we make inferences, we use clues from the text and our own knowledge to figure out things that are not directly stated."
• "As we play the game, let's pay attention to the details in the stories and see if we can answer questions about them."
• "It's important to keep practicing reading comprehension to become better at it. Just like playing a game, the more we practice, the better we get!"
