Both children and grown-ups enjoy books with illustrations, photographs, charts and diagrams. Learning about how to get the most information from these text features will help students expand both their reading skills and their knowledge.

You can help your child’s reading comprehension by stopping during reading time to look at and talk about the text features on each page. This simple step can help children enjoy reading and learning new things.

Reading to learn is so much fun when families and friends can share reading time together.
