I love all of your resources and information! One thing I would include in your review about reading comprehension is that comprehension is also greatly influenced by a person’s language comprehension. As a Speech-Language Pathologist, mom of a struggling reader and quest for understanding all things reading, a good bit of research that I have read indicates that this factor is one that greatly influences reading comprehension.

Thank you for that feedback, Loren!
