From the Publisher: Developing Reading Power is a unique supplemental series in which high-interest stories are brought together with activities that promote reading skills. Emphasis is on literal and inferential comprehension. Since students learn to read by reading, one of the first goals was to select stories that children would want to read. This goal was met by choosing stories from Highlights for Children, a magazine for children that is highly respected by teachers. The second goal was to make sure that children could read the stories. That is why many of the stories are within the students' independent reading range for each grade. Adequate content, however, is included that is at the instructional level for each grade, making it possible for students to gain an understanding of important new concepts, skills, and reading vocabulary.
