Hi friend,

If you’ve ever felt like your students are reading the words but not really understanding the story, you’re not alone! Teaching reading comprehension can be tricky — especially when you’re trying to make it meaningful and engaging.

The good news? You can teach comprehension in a way that’s active, hands-on, and even fun.

One of the most effective approaches is the Super Six Comprehension Strategies — a framework that helps young readers think deeply about what they read through six key skills:
🧠 Making Connections
🔮 Predicting
❓ Questioning
👀 Monitoring
🎨 Visualizing
📝 Summarizing

Each one gives students a different lens to understand text — and when you combine them, you’re building confident, thoughtful readers who enjoy the process.

To help you bring these strategies to life, I’ve shared a blog post full of ideas, examples, and a free classroom tool:
👉 Super Six Comprehension Strategies & Role Cards Blog Post​

It’s packed with easy ways to make comprehension interactive — like giving each student a “role” (the Questioner, the Visualizer, the Summarizer, etc.) so they can practice thinking like a reader during small group or whole-class reading.
