Grades 9-12: Focus on First Lines: Increasing Comprehension through Prediction Strategi... - 0 views

  •  
    "Focus on First Lines: Increasing Comprehension through Prediction Strategies" OVERVIEW At the beginning of a course or unit, students examine opening sentences from texts that they will read completely in later sessions. Students analyze the sentences and make predictions about the texts. As students read the complete texts throughout the course or unit, they return to their predictions to talk about the prediction strategy and to increase reading comprehension. The lesson plan includes sample opening lines for a variety of courses. The lesson can be easily adapted for any course or unit by collecting opening lines from texts that the class will read as a group.

Concept-Oriented Reading Instruction - 0 views

  •  
    oncept-Oriented Reading Instruction (CORI) is an instructional program that merges reading strategy instruction, conceptual knowledge in science, and support for student motivation. We define reading engagement as the interplay of motivation, conceptual knowledge, strategies, and social interaction during literacy activities. We believe engagement in reading is crucial for the development of life-long literacy learners. The CORI program is designed to foster reading engagement and comprehension through the teaching of reading strategies, teaching of scientific concepts and inquiry skills, and its explicit support of the development of student intrinsic motivation to read.

    "Favorite Determining-Importance Lesson Ideas Determining important ideas and information in text is central to making sense of reading and moving toward insight... When we teach the strategy of determining importance, we often introduce it in nonfiction. They go together. Nonfiction reading is reading to learn. Simply put, readers of nonfiction have to decide and remember what is important in the texts they read if they are going to learn anything from them. Strategies That Work, Harvey & Goudvis."
