These worksheets for meaningful reading contain short texts that tell of the children's everyday life or of fantastic moments: the joy of a football goal, the fear of high diving or the ghostly hour. For each text there are reading tasks to help the children grasp the meaning. The level of difficulty increases steadily, so that there are five levels of difficulty for the children to climb. Repeating task formats and solution pages ensure that the children can work through and control the exercises independently. The collected copy templates can be used as a systematic training program. In addition, the worksheets can also be used individually for differentiation and individual support of the students. In this way, a successful initial lesson in reading is achieved.
