SkillsTutor Reading Comprehension for Levels 2-3 provides six lessons that focus on a single comprehension skill. The six skills are 1) main idea, 2) important details, 3) author’s purpose, 4) cause and effect, 5) sequencing, and 6) inference. Each of the six comprehension skill lessons has an idea web and a prediction question to prepare students for learning about a targeted skill. Students then see a short tutorial on the basics of that skill. After reading an excerpt from an article, students answer questions related to the target skill. The lesson contains several excerpts and 10 scored questions. Questions and feedback are designed to give explicit instruction on that lesson’s comprehension skill. The interactions in the comprehension skill lessons are similar to those in the content-area reading lessons.
