Deep reading

What is “Deep reading”?

Deep reading is a 4th grade reading skill in the Figurative Forest region of the TernQuest map — idioms, roots & deep reading. It is aligned to California Common Core standard RL.4.2. Children work through 29 grade-tagged questions at the reason level (reasoning it through), and Pip the tern offers a hint — never the answer — when they get stuck.

How does it unlock?

Skills on the map unlock in order: finishing the skill before this one with a mastery score of 60 or more opens deep reading. A grown-up can also assign it directly from the dashboard, and teachers can assign it to a whole class with a join code.
