Main Idea:Sentences

We are using this app for our 3rd grader. This is our first year homeschooling, and we're focusing on relearning basics that were never fully mastered in public schools. We have several other apps in the bundle but are going one by one through them. My student likes this app. I like the read aloud option for making the iPad read the text to him since he struggles with that area. We are seeing sequential gains in his reading comprehension. Thanks!

I am so excited about this app! This is just what my daughter needs to practice getting the main idea in reading comprehension. So much of reading practice is the phonics and fluency, but it's hard to find a good product that helps students get main ideas and comprehension. This app gives the reading material in small enough chunks to not overwhelm but asks great questions to get them thinking about the passage. Highly recommend!

I use this with my kids during their speech therapy sessions. I use it for both reading comprehension and listening comprehension. I will read the story to them, and have them answer the questions, or have them retell the story to me, making sure they include the main idea and key details. They love doing it both ways, and I can use one app to work on 2 different skills.
