Reading and understanding are critical literacy skills. However, it’s not always easy to find reading comprehension tests that link to your teaching topic, or to your pupils’ other learning experiences. Fortunately, now>press>play makes this possible.
now>press>play provides Reading Comprehension tests linked to 60+ topics across the KS1 and KS2 curriculum, designed to follow on from each of our immersive Experiences.
How our Reading Comprehension tests work
After completing one of our Experiences, the follow-on Reading Comprehensions help your pupils embed what they’ve learned and apply it to test their reading skills. Reading passages in the tests are all taken from our Experiences, meaning children can easily make links to their prior learning.
The tests cover all SATs reading question types, including:
- Word meaning
- Retrieval
- Summarising
- Inference
- Prediction
- Choice of words to enhance meaning
- Comparison
And more…
