Support readers by giving a little background knowledge prior to reading complex texts.

  • When students don't understand the background knowledge, it is boring, they check out and do not retain anything.
  • Small amount of background building goes a long way.

I have felt that way when learning Japanese and Chinese in language specific classes, as well as in other situations like when I took a Russian history class and had a difficult time determining if the key vocabulary were nouns (people’s names, places, events) or verbs (actions).

    Both need to be high for reading comprehension to take place. If one is strong and the other is not in the equation there still is weak reading comprehension. These also are dependent on the ultimate determinant of success, MOTIVATION.
