From Twinkl.com, a cloze procedure “is a reading comprehension activity that involves a passage of text with missing words that need to be filled in from a list of words.
They are a great reading activity for kids as it encourages them to think about what word fits in a blank space, so the entire passage makes sense.
Cloze procedure is great for teachers to give to their students to help with their reading and also as a fun way to learn about a topic. They often provide useful information for a child to learn and really makes them think about what they are reading as they have to fill in the gaps.”
