The Reading Box Blue was worked on by a team of authors to provide young children with decodable readers that help develop their literary skills. Every card in the box is double sided, one side offering a wide range of language and reading activities, and the other side having 20-25 self-marking questions. These cards contain a range of different educational topics that are designed to appeal to children and align with NAPLAN testing.

Varying skill levels

This product comes with a simple 9-minute levelling test for students to be assigned to their appropriate starting level. They can use different cards accordingly.

Targetted interest areas

The cards include animals, sports, and other interest areas of children to make learning literacy a familiar and engaging experience. In the classroom, students can practise the 3H strategy which divides questions into three types:

• HERE questions are obvious in the text i.e. literal
• HIDDEN questions can be drawn from one or more parts of the text
• HEAD questions require the reader to bring their own knowledge or understanding to the information given in the text

This is one of many ways students can use the Reading Box Blue. Students might want to practise questioning each other, or marking themselves independently, and teachers can use these cards as an exercise to follow class lessons.
