evidence based strategies for comprehension think alouds, close reading, reciprocal teaching, annotating text, self-monitoring strategies
think alouds models how skilled readers think through a text, promoting metacognition "I wonder why that happened"
close reading encourages students to reread texts to analyze language, details, and structure
reciprocal teaching in small groups, students take turns leading a discussion
annotating texts students highlight unknown vocabulary, underline main ideas, and write comments or questions in the margins
self-monitoring strategies teaches students to stop periodically and ask themselves "do I understand this?"
strategic reading skills skimming, scanning, adjusting reading rate, and comprehension monitoring
skimming scan the heading, first sentences, concluding paragraphs to locate key ideas
scanning finding particular quotes, character names, or evidence to answer comprehension questions
adjusting reading rate slowing down to analyze complex texts and speeding up for familiar material
comprehension monitoring students evaluating if they understand what they are reading (using comprehension checklists)
strategies to support comprehension and analysis strategic, purposeful read-alouds, text-based discussions, lit circles, graphic organizers, literary response journals
first person POV a narrator in the story recounts his or her own perspective (I, we, me, us)
second person POV the story is written in the perspective of YOU
third person objective POV the narrator remains a detached observer, telling only the action and dialogue
third person limited POV the narrator tells the story from the viewpoint of one character in the story
third person omniscient POV the narrator has unlimited knowledge and can describe every character's thoughts and interpret their behavior. Omniscient means "all knowing"
evidence based DI strategies for ELs pre-teaching vocabulary, cultural connections, sentence frames and language supports, bilingual glossaries/COGNATES
evidence based DI strategies for SWDs graphic organizers, explicit instruction, multisensory approaches, chunking texts, read alouds and audiobooks, visual and tactile supports
evidence based DI strategies for struggling readers INTERVENTIONS, guided reading, repeated readings, close reading with scaffolding, explicit instruction in story elements
evidence based DI strategies for on-grade level students lit circles, text-based discussions, comparing and contrasting texts, writing literary responses
evidence based DI strategies for highly proficient students analyzing author's craft, comparing literary works across cultures, independent literary projects, constructing higher-ordered questions
DI for ALL learners flexible grouping, leveled texts, choice and voice
