GROUPS

Reading Comprehension Group

Our Reading Comprehension group is an intensive school holiday group for children in years 3-6. This group is a great way for children to develop key skills that promote in-depth understanding of texts  in a fun, supportive environment.

Skills covered will include:

  • Activating and using prior knowledge to better understand texts
  • Visualising
  • Understanding the main idea of a text
  • Vocabulary and using context clues
  • Responding to literal questions
  • Responding to higher level questions (inferential, predicting etc)
  • Sit and attend in a small group setting for 10 minutes
  • Able to read (decode words) at a year 3 or above level
  • Able  to write in simple sentences or above
  • Use sentences to communicate needs, wants and ideas
  • Independently move around a room without the need for physical support
  • Follow simple 2 step instructions and above
  • Independently perform self-care activities including toileting, hand hygiene and dressing post toileting
  • Able to separate from parent/carer and participate in group activities for 3 hours

Our approach is inclusive. If your child has difficulties with some of these skills, they may still be able to attend. Please discuss suitability with your individual clinician or contact the ACM office to discuss available supports and accommodations.
