Being able to understand written text goes far beyond deciphering words. Your child must be able to comprehend the information he or she reads to be considered a fully competent reader. Of course, comprehension is a skill that takes time and practice to master, which is why including the subject in your homeschool program is a wise idea.
Fortunately, you can improve your child’s comprehension skills by using Modern Curriculum Press (MCP) Comprehension Plus. This curriculum for homeschooling was designed to enhance your child’s English/language arts education, giving him or her the tools he or she needs to develop as a reader. You can use MCP Comprehension Plus in conjunction with your child’s other English/language arts homeschool programs, such as Reading Street. By doing so, you’ll be giving your child access to a complete English/language arts education.
MCP Comprehension Plus was designed for children at the elementary school level. Grade 2 is geared toward introductory learners. It will give your child the foundational comprehension skills he or she needs to form new and more advanced abilities. By the time your child completes MCP Comprehension Plus: Grade 2, he or she will be able to:
Read books as a means to glean information while researching.
Read and comprehend books with multiple chapters.

Connect events in a text and between texts by comprehending the story.
