Each double-sided card is designed to support children in comprehension by:

• making explicit how reading strategies are combined
• scaffolding quality oral answers by using the reading response sentence starters to encourage children to construct extended utterances not one word answers
• encouraging children to deepen their thoughts in discussion with others by referring to the dialogic talk stems 
• ensuring that no child is being held back by their ability to write, i.e. deepening responses orally without the need to write extended answers
• prompts are age appropriate with a clear progression in expectation across the three toolkits.
