To be literate is to think through multiple perspectives, explore diverse texts, and harness the power of story to equip students with the life skills to discuss just about anything with critical curiosity. Critical Comprehension transforms this vital work into an accessible, three-step lesson process. Using picture books, multimodal texts, and thoughtfully framed questions, each differentiated lesson helps students expand their understanding of a text. Well-designed lessons are geared toward Grades K-6.
