Additional resources

Included in the Reading Box Green are a supplementary set of rapid reader cards which are graded, short passage exercises that can be utilised in a variety of ways. All the material included is also presented in a material 4-page booklet form.

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 Green in class. 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.
