Comprehension answers improve when students can separate four jobs: understand the question, find the evidence, state the answer and check the boundary.
This legacy Compassvale Primary School English page now owns one job: Question → Evidence → Answer → Boundary. eduKate is not affiliated with Compassvale Primary School through this page; the school name does not imply an onsite class. Families should verify current eduKate teaching location, timing and availability directly.
1. Question
Identify whether the task asks for a detail, reason, effect, inference, comparison or evidence.
2. Evidence
- locate the relevant sentence or paragraph;
- identify the clue rather than copy the whole section;
- separate direct information from inference.
3. Answer
State the required meaning clearly. If the answer is inferential, explain the conclusion that the clue supports.
4. Boundary
| Problem | Boundary repair |
|---|---|
| Too short | Add missing relationship |
| Too long | Remove irrelevant detail |
| Copied text | Select only necessary evidence |
| Unsupported inference | Stop where evidence stops |
Retest on a Fresh Passage
The four-layer process should survive when the text changes and the tutor no longer points to the evidence zone.
For Compassvale Families
Confirm actual eduKate class logistics directly. A useful comprehension programme helps the child build the answer from evidence rather than from guesswork or copying.
