Retelling a story is a great way to assess a student's comprehension of a story. Each quarter, your child will be assessed for his/her reading level by not only reading the words, but also retelling what happened in the story. They need both components--decoding words and comprehending the story's meaning/message--in order to independently read at that level.
Watch as this student retells the story If You Give a Pig a Pancake by Laura Numeroff.
