In this fourth edition, the Workbook activities, which were provided in individual, consumable workbooks in previous editions, are provided as reproducible worksheet pages that can be printed from the Reading Milestones Reproducible Materials Flash Drive or the boxed set of blackline masters and reproduced as needed for your students' use.

Workbook activities are based on schema theory and designed to emphasize the development of comprehension. Tasks are constructed to develop literal comprehension, inferential comprehension, and the solving of problems. A variety of procedures are used: semantic maps, semantic feature analyses, story maps, word maps, and word analogies. Other tasks include:

• matching print and pictures
• classification
• sequencing
• story structure
• phonological awareness activities

The Reading Milestones Workbook pages provide activities that serve as reinforcement and practice for the skills the teacher has taught through direct instruction during the reading period. The tasks become progressively more sophisticated as the students advance in the levels and provide reinforcement of basic literacy and comprehension skills.

Workbook activities are available in two formats:

• Reproducible worksheets that can be printed from the Reading Milestones Reproducible Materials Flash Drive, included in the kit
• A boxed, printed version of blackline masters, available separately
