What is Comprehension?

carias51 — 2024-07-01 14:28:11 UTC

Comprehension growth begins at a young age as children learn how to listen and understand. This early type of comprehension is most often called oral or listening comprehension and is typically divided into two types: inferential and literal. The former includes transferable strategic skills, such as predicting, inferencing, and making connections to prior knowledge, and this type of early comprehension instruction predicts successful reading comprehension in elementary students (Duffy et al., 1987). The latter often includes explicit knowledge and vocabulary instruction during reading (Zucker et al., 2013), or concrete questions about texts (e.g., How many cookies did Elmo eat?). Preschool teachers do not often consider inferences when planning book discussions (Scheiner & Gorsetman, 2009). However, when teachers' read-alouds promote comprehension strategies, young children are able to construct meaning, particularly when books are purposely selected to support such strategic comprehension (Mohr et al., 2022; Wright et al., 2022).
