The English Content Team continues to add questions to the Foundational Skills section! This current update includes a variety of multiple choice and fill-in questions focusing on the following word families:
- -ist
- -og
- -oon
- -oose
- -ow
- -own
- -ub
These questions work best when ReadSpeaker, Castle Learning’s read-to-text feature, is enabled. ReadSpeaker reads the names of images that could otherwise be confusing for young readers.
These questions are also an excellent learning tool for ELLs (English Language Learners). ESL teachers are encouraged to explore the Foundational Skills area of the English Language Arts database, as many of the topics and questions types can assist in acquiring basic English competency skills.
