"There is a big jump in reading comprehension skills from second grade, where many students are learning to read, to third grade, where students are reading to learn. The Big Book of Reading Comprehension Activities, Grade 3 addresses a variety of comprehension skills that are necessary for third graders to be successful. Braun has compiled a collection of highly engaging passages that cover multiple reading genres and are seamlessly aligned to the Common Core State Standards. As a 3rd grade teacher, who has taught 4th and 5th grade, I see the tremendous value of using The Big Book of Reading Comprehension Activities, Grade 3 in class to reinforce the skills necessary to be a well-rounded reader."--Gordon Johnson, 3rd grade teacher, Thornton, CO
