Which phrases in this excerpt from ode on a Grecian urn by john Keats suggest that the urn represents everlasting art
gladu [14]
If this is the excerpt:

<span><span>Heard melodies are sweet, but those unheard </span>
Are sweeter; therefore, ye soft pipes, play on;
<span>Not to the sensual ear, but, more endear'd, </span>
<span>Pipe to the spirit ditties of no tone: </span>
<span>Fair youth, beneath the trees, thou canst not leave </span>
<span>Thy song, nor ever can those trees be bare; </span>
<span>Bold Lover, never, never canst thou kiss, </span>
<span>Though winning near the goal yet, do not grieve; </span>
<span>She cannot fade, though thou hast not thy bliss, </span>
For ever wilt thou love, and she be fair!
</span>
Then the part that reflect the theme that art is immortal is 

Though winning near the goal yet, do not grieve; 
<span><span>She cannot fade, though thou hast not thy bliss, 

</span>It implies that there is no need for grieving because She cannot fade. She will last for a long time.</span>

What suggestions or recommendations would you give to improve a reading program
uysha [10]

Answer:

Developing reading comprehension skills is incredibly important for growing readers, starting as early as picture books. As children get older, it will help them understand textbooks, newspapers, and other more complex texts.

Scholastic offers plenty of grade-appropriate reading comprehension activity books that can help your child practice, but in addition, here are six tips to sharpen reading comprehension skills in your early reader.

Want even more book and reading ideas? Sign up for our Scholastic Parents newsletter.

1. Have them read aloud. This encourages them to go slower, which gives them more time to process what they read and in turn improves reading comprehension. Plus, they're not only seeing the words — they're hearing them, too! You can also take turns reading aloud.

2. Provide books at the right level. Make sure your child gets lots of practice reading books that aren't too hard. They should recognize at least 90 percent of the words without any help. Stopping any more often than that to figure out a word makes it tough for kids to focus on the overall meaning of the story.

If your child needs help transitioning from picture books to chapter books, try Scholastic's Branches books, which are designed to bridge that gap for growing readers.

3. Reread to build fluency. To gain meaning from text and encourage reading comprehension, your child needs to read quickly and smoothly — a skill known as fluency. By the beginning of 3rd grade, for example, your child should be able to read 90 words a minute.

Rereading familiar, simple books gives your child practice at decoding words quickly, so they'll become more fluent in their reading comprehension. Learn more about the multiple benefits of rereading books!

4. Talk to the teacher. If your child is struggling with reading comprehension, they may need more help with building their vocabulary or practicing phonics skills. (This Peppa Pig Phonics Box Set and this PAW Patrol Phonics Box Set are fun ways to help your child build necessary phonics skills.) A teacher can weigh in on the best next steps to take.

5. Supplement their class reading. If your child's class is studying a particular theme, look for easy-to-read books or magazines on the topic. Some prior knowledge will help them make their way through tougher classroom texts and promote reading comprehension.

6. Talk about what they're reading. This "verbal processing" helps them remember and think through the themes of the book. Ask questions before, during, and after a session to encourage reading comprehension. (Read about all the questions you should ask during story time here!) For example:

Before: "What are you interested in about this book? What doesn't interest you?"

During: "What's going on in the book? Is it turning out the way you thought it would? What do you think will happen next?"

After: "Can you summarize the book? What did you like about it? What other books does it remind you of?"
