A fluent reader doesn't have to stop and "decode" each word and can focus attention on what the story or text means. Fluency is the bridge between decoding words and understanding what has been read!" - Read more from Reading Rockets HERE]]> 2022-06-01 15:11:24 UTC https://padlet.com/kmcintosh921/hgliuoac5e6beh4i/wish/2207657124 What is Comprehension? kmcintosh921 https://padlet.com/kmcintosh921/hgliuoac5e6beh4i/wish/2207659712 "Comprehension, or extracting meaning from what you read, is the ultimate goal of reading. Experienced readers take this for granted and may not appreciate the reading comprehension skills required. The process of comprehension is both interactive and strategic. Rather than passively reading text, readers must analyze it, internalize it and make it their own." - definition from Read Naturally.

Students can't decode, or "sound out" words if they don't have a strong grasp on letter sounds, paying close attention to letters that make more than one sound!

Like note-taking, quality explanations need to be taught and modeled through an evolving sequence. Try these tips and remember to model for your student and provide feedback:

  1. Make sure the question is clear. If not, try to simplify with guiding questions.

  2. Encourage student to write short sentences and/or show their work using sentence starters.

  3. Use graphic organizers as a guide.

  4. Practice aloud.

  5. Revise their explanations. Is it clear enough for someone who has never done this before to be successful? - Think about the PB&J model: here.
