You can find summarizing; text features; inference; and compare contrast. I'm teaching 5th grade; but this still fall under the curriculum. Can turn some worksheets into projects for center time.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. MehBy Sandy BeachVery short book; skips around after very short lessons.
