Features:
- 162 cards in the box, colour-coded by strategy.
- Original texts across the cards and teacher guide, allowing students to experience a variety of fiction and non-fiction text types.
- Cater for all while learning the same strategies, with three differentiated reading levels by suggested Lexile® ranges for each strategy, and a placement test provided to ascertain students’ starting point.
- Extensive support through a comprehensive teacher guide and an additional activity book with worksheets for all texts on the cards.

I absolutely love these hands-on activities, they're so versatile and you can use them in so many different ways. I love that the teacher guide is heavily scaffolded for you so it's really helpful if you're a newer teacher, or if you're not really familiar with these comprehension strategies.

An amazing resource, it is based off the Australian Curriculum which is really awesome because that means we are covering all the content we need to cover. It comes with a teachers guide book which is super super helpful, it is full of activities, with lots that we can photocopy which is awesome – we love that. It has all the content descriptors and the purpose of them. It is a really thick book full of those amazing resources. The box comes with 4 sets of cards, so this is something that your school could purchase a whole group of year levels. So, for example my school has 4 classes of 3 primary’s and so that means my class and 3 other primary classes can use this as one, so it’s really cool. The cards are categorised by each learning area. The activities are ideal for small group activities that are teacher led. Most of the activities have the instructions at the bottom. The great thing about these cards is that all of them have things at the top that will tell you what resources you need to complete each activity. E.g. counters, whiteboard, etc. It prompts the kids with what they need to complete the activity and promotes independence as well as they can actually go and get the resources themselves. I can’t recommend R.I.C.’s resources enough because they are just so incredible. They are curriculum aligned; they are perfect for in the classroom. So, definitely go check them out if you haven’t already.
