FOCUSED PRACTICE: Spectrum's Second Grade Reading Workbook provides focused close reading practice to strengthen your second grader's ability to understand, process, and analyze fiction and nonfiction passages. This 174-page illustrated workbook helps kids enhance their reading comprehension skills through engaging texts and discussion questions.

CORRELATED TO CURRENT STATE STANDARDS: This standards-based workbook helps your child build fluency and proficiency in essential reading concepts, including demonstrating understanding of a text, story structure, identifying the main purpose of a passage, describing how reasons support specific points, and using sentence-level context clues to confirm or self-correct word recognition.

HOW IT WORKS: Each new lesson is introduced with a short prompt to help students read with purpose. Students then read several short paragraphs that are followed by open-ended and multiple-choice questions that encourage critical thinking and help improve their reading habits.

WORKING TOGETHER: This English language arts workbook is designed to provide parents and teachers the opportunity to teach their students one-on-one or to allow students to set their own pace as they navigate each story. An answer key is provided to assess student understanding and success.
