Focus on Connections


Making Connections® is a direct, systematic, and highly interactive comprehension program that teaches students strategies to build their comprehension. The program employs a scaffolded instructional plan that supports students by modeling, guiding, and then coaching students to independence. Fiction and nonfiction texts are tied to content-area topics to prepare students to analyze and interpret diverse materials across content areas.

Students will learn how to:

  • Understand skills such as cause and effect, drawing conclusions, and predicting outcomes
  • Locate, interpret, and organize key information in a text
  • Analyze words in a text using vocabulary strategies
  • Utilize text features such as maps, graphs, tables, photos, and glossaries to aid comprehension
  • Interpret a variety of genres including biographies, science & social studies texts, Greek myth and much more!
