Enhance your thinking about teaching with these research-based comprehension strategies!
Teaching comprehension and insuring that students think about what they read can be a challenging task for educators. In reader-friendly terms, Comprehension Strategies for Your K–6 Literacy Classroom illustrates how teachers can effectively use six critical comprehension strategies to enhance student understanding: activating schema, questioning, visualizing, inferring, determining important ideas, and synthesizing.
Divonna M. Stebick and Joy M. Dain present a ‘before, ‘ ‘during, ‘ and ‘after’ instructional framework that provides the three elements necessary for strategic comprehension learning to take place: explicit instruction through teacher modeling, guided practice, and independent application.
Combining theory with classroom research, this helpful resource:
- Offers step-by-step direction, guiding teachers through sample lessons
- Includes ready-to-use lessons that are easily adaptable and aligned with NCLB and NCTE standards
- Provides real-life case studies illustrating classroom application
- Uses hands-on activities and visual aids such as anchor charts, sketches, treasure chests, and builders′ plans to capture students′ attention and promote critical thinking
