It's called <<Comprehension Skills>>. There are 5 levels and each level 6 booklets - one each for Facts, Sequence, Main Idea, Context, Conclusion, and Inference. I hope this helps. Diane Diane K.

They read a little story, then all of the questions were based on the specific skill that booklet was working on. The booklets were about 60 pages, white, and they were softcover stapled in the middle like a magazine as opposed to being perfect bound. I am pretty sure there was one of each type at each grade level and they were color coded. My question: Does this still exist? I have no clue who the publisher was, and this nifty vague description doesn't get us too far. :) Does anyone have anything akin to this? I'm trying to equip the center with skill specific resources and have been out of the loop for a l-o-n-g time. Thanks! Jean Marrapodi
