English Summary/英文概要： Does your learner need help with identifying the main idea?

Identifying the main idea of a text or paragraph is often quite challenging for struggling learners. Our 6-step process will guide their learning to success.

In this workbook, your learner begins by examining single sentences and identifying what each sentence is about. They’ll learn that a single sentence can be about several topics.

Your learner will then step from single sentences to two-sentence texts. Through visual representation, they learn that the main idea of text can be determined by seeing what most of the sentences are about. By the end of the workbook, students will know how to identify the main idea of 3-4 sentence texts without any additional support or information. A great achievement! This workbook is designed to appeal to reluctant and struggling learners. We include lots of white space and keep text density to a minimum. We understand your learners!
