Reading Comprehension by CAROLYNNE WATERS https://padlet.com/watecaro1807/inrpcqlz6x3citzt How do you respond to one of these quotes? en-us 2020-11-26 21:04:33 UTC 2020-11-30 20:55:10 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.net/icons/png/1f4da.png Proficient readers are metacognitive readers. They think about their own thinking during reading." Keene and Zimmerman, 1997. watecaro1807 https://padlet.com/watecaro1807/inrpcqlz6x3citzt/wish/964368020 2020-11-26 21:08:00 UTC https://padlet.com/watecaro1807/inrpcqlz6x3citzt/wish/964368020 Reading is the construction of meaning. Comprehending is not a product of reading, it is the process. The child is continuously making sense of the world; when reading, he is making sense of text. Comprehension begins before reading as readers make predictions and anticipate the text, and continues after reading as they use their experience and extend it." Fountas and Pinnell, 1996, p.156 watecaro1807 https://padlet.com/watecaro1807/inrpcqlz6x3citzt/wish/964369239 2020-11-26 21:09:04 UTC https://padlet.com/watecaro1807/inrpcqlz6x3citzt/wish/964369239 Metacognitive strategies increase readers' meaning construction, monitoring of texts and reading comprehension, and their ability to evaluate the text they are reading. Metacognitively skilled readers are readers who are aware of knowledge, procedures, and controls of the reading process. They use this knowledge during the reading process to improve reading and comprehension ability."

So, too, do the students who must meet these demands...students are expected to learn new words, new facts, and new ideas, and new ideas from reading, as well as to interpret, critique and summarize texts they read. The literate practices embedded in these tasks, combining literacy skills and content knowledge, are often invisible (or taken for granted) and yet require a high level of sophistication."
