Learning to read is the first step in being a lifelong reader. Understanding what you read and learning to appreciate it, is the next step. Apologia Educational Ministries has created Readers in Residence Volume 1 (Sleuth) to do just that. Children in grades 4 and up will develop their comprehension skills while participating in high-interest activities and reading assignments.

Readers in Residence Volume 1 (Sleuth) contains two books. The first book is an inclusive book containing all the text and activities in one spiral-bound location. The second book is an answer book for the parent or teacher.

Some skills your student will learn include:

  • understand the author’s craft, choices, and intentions
  • recognize the literary elements authors use to create fiction and nonfiction
  • make inferences from the details in the text plus their own prior knowledge and experience
  • decode the meaning of unfamiliar words from context clues
  • build a rich and varied vocabulary
  • identify and understand figures of speech such as personification, metaphor, and hyperbole
  • notice how expert writers employ the conventions of the English language (punctuation, capitalization, grammar, and usage) to achieve clarity
