Reading Comprehension Book 5, Grade 7 (Homeschool Edition)

Reading Comprehension in Varied Subject Matter is a comprehensive series of workbooks designed to enhance students' reading comprehension skills through engaging nonfiction passages. These passages cover a wide range of topics including social studies, science, literature, mathematics, philosophy, logic, language, the arts, and combined subjects. Following each passage, students are presented with comprehension questions that test their ability to recall information, make inferences, and respond to writing prompts. The books are thematically arranged, allowing students to explore different aspects of a topic and gain a broader understanding of the subject matter. This series is an excellent resource for preparing students for standardized tests and providing valuable practice in nonfiction reading comprehension. The series accommodates students of varying reading abilities within the same class, making it suitable for both classroom and homeschool settings. It spans grades 2-11 and is divided into three levels:
