ByCarolyn Wilhelm

Reading and Word Solving Strategies Pack 1 is free and available in the free eMember section of this site for those who have previously joined. If not yet a member, join here and gain access to this and other educational downloads. What’s in this pack? There are 170 pages with 20 reading comprehension and word solving posters. Also included are some book companions to help mentor the strategies. Pictures tell the best story, so see for yourself what is included.  I prepared a PDF preview with more information, including the CCSS addressed for grades one and two.
