The ability to understand something is called Comprehension. The main idea behind comprehension related questions in ELA assessments is to test students’ understanding of the reading passages rather than the individual parts.
There are certain aspects of reading comprehension, such as fluency and word recognition, which can be learnt easily very soon with little help. Several Comprehension books and comprehension worksheets are available for free practice both in printed and online formats. Students can also find many reading comprehension worksheets which helps them build their reading skills.
