FUN COMPREHENSION GAMES

 Here are some fun comprehension games that you can play together to enhance reading comprehension skills:

  1. Story Map: After reading a story, draw a map of the story’s events together. Include characters, settings, and major events. This helps visualize the story’s structure.

  2. Question and Answer Dice: Create a dice with different question words (Who, What, When, Where, Why, How). After reading, roll the dice and ask a question based on the word that comes up.

  3. Picture Summaries: Draw a series of pictures that summarize the story. Then, mix them up and try to put them back in the correct order.

  4. Character Charades: Choose a character from the story and act out their actions or dialogue. The other person has to guess who you are.

  5. Vocabulary Pictionary: Choose a word from the story and draw a picture of its meaning. The other person has to guess the word.

  6. Book Bingo: Create a bingo card with different types of books or story elements (e.g., a book with a red cover, a book about animals, a book with a happy ending). Try to read books that match the descriptions to get a bingo.

  7. Story Jenga: Write different comprehension questions on each block of a Jenga game. When you pull out a block, you have to answer the question.

  8. Retell Relay: Take turns retelling parts of the story. Each person has to pick up where the last person left off.

  9. Guess the Genre: Read the blurb or first few lines of a book and guess its genre.

  10. Fact or Opinion: After reading a non-fiction book, make statements about the book and have the other person guess if they’re fact or opinion.

Remember, the goal of these games is to make reading fun and interactive, while also improving comprehension skills. Enjoy your reading time together! πŸ“š
