Memoria Press literature guides, like our Brambly Hedge Teacher Guide, train students to become active readers. Our guides focus on vocabulary, spelling, comprehension, and composition skills. Each lesson also includes a word study to help students build vocabulary. Equally important, comprehension questions teach students to think about what they have read and to identify the important content of each story. They teach student to compose a clear, concise answer to a question, a difficult skill at any age.
Children who are asked to read slightly above their comfort level will develop into superior readers. Reading is not a passive activity for pleasure, however. Reading requires an active, discriminating mind that is challenged to think, compare, and contrast. Students who have first been challenged by good literature will never be satisfied with poor-quality books later.
