Words, sentences, short and longer texts, informational texts on curriculum topics, children's literature, and poems: The reading box for 4th grade contains reading material for all levels of difficulty and for many different occasions. The consolidation and deepening of what has been read is carried out - as in the reading boxes for grades 1, 2, and 3 - in a highly varied manner. This allows children to further develop their reading competence and reinforce important reading strategies. Carefully selected passages from children's books spark curiosity about literature. Through playful engagement with poems and creative presentations, children develop a joy for working with poetry. The topics of the informational and practical texts, which students also engage with in a hands-on manner, are interesting for both boys and girls: advertising, soccer, ballet, animals, and Braille.
