Reading comprehension in grade 2 builds upon the foundations laid in grade 1, focusing on enhancing the reading skills of young learners. At this level, the texts become slightly more complex, incorporating a broader vocabulary and more varied sentence structures. The narratives or informational texts are designed to be engaging, often involving familiar themes and characters to maintain the interest of the children.

The goal is to encourage students to read with more fluency, understand the main ideas of a text, and answer questions that may require them to infer information or explain the reasons behind events in the story. Let us dive deeper and answer the questions after the reading Comprehension!
