When a student does not have knowledge about what they are learning or their knowledge is limited on the topic teachers need to plan levels of comprehension support.]]> 2017-06-04 01:56:23 UTC https://padlet.com/cwlayne/zcig7dyheogk/wish/175088525 cwlayne https://padlet.com/cwlayne/zcig7dyheogk/wish/175088581 There are three levels of reader-text matches that educators have identified to help inform their instructional decisions: frustration, instructional, and independent.

2. Students only retell about half of the key ideas and information.
3. Oral reading will be choppy and halting, they will miscall more than 10% of the words.
4. Students will exhibit signs of frustration such as scowling, fidgeting, and sighing.
5. They might avoid the task.
6. Students might gain partial knowledge of the passage, but it would take too long to actually be productive (Moore, et al., 2011, p. 91).]]> 2017-06-04 02:03:05 UTC https://padlet.com/cwlayne/zcig7dyheogk/wish/175088627 cwlayne https://padlet.com/cwlayne/zcig7dyheogk/wish/175088695 1. Students will retell about three-quarters of the key ideas and information.
2. Their oral reading flows easily and they will miscall no more than 10% of the words.
3. They will remain on task and successfully work through any difficulties they encounter.
4. Instructional text is one that students best understand and remember when they have the appropriate supports in place (Moore, et al., 2011, p. 92). ]]> 2017-06-04 02:08:34 UTC https://padlet.com/cwlayne/zcig7dyheogk/wish/175088695 cwlayne https://padlet.com/cwlayne/zcig7dyheogk/wish/175088744 1. Comprehension is effortless and automatic because the reading material is familiar and well known to the student.
2. Students retell about 95% of the key ideas and information.
3. Oral reading flows easily and students miscall no more than 5% of the words.
4. As long as the work is engaging they will complete tasks with little to no trouble (Moore, et al., 2011, p. 92).]]> 2017-06-04 02:12:03 UTC https://padlet.com/cwlayne/zcig7dyheogk/wish/175088744 cwlayne https://padlet.com/cwlayne/zcig7dyheogk/wish/175088816 Educators need to present a range of reading materials so that some are within their students's instructional reading levels - their zones of proximal development - where most effective instruction occurs (Moore, et al., 2011, p. 92). ]]> 2017-06-04 02:17:40 UTC https://padlet.com/cwlayne/zcig7dyheogk/wish/175088816 cwlayne https://padlet.com/cwlayne/zcig7dyheogk/wish/175088925 This video provides ideas and suggestions on how to determine individual instructional levels for reading and choosing books.]]> 2017-06-04 02:23:28 UTC https://padlet.com/cwlayne/zcig7dyheogk/wish/175088925 cwlayne https://padlet.com/cwlayne/zcig7dyheogk/wish/175089194 Alias, A.

Moore et al. (2011) states that two appealing study guides are:
1. Point-of-view  reading guides engage readers by making their reactions the central focus of questions.
2. Interactive reading guides ensure interaction among students with activities that are done by individuals, pairs, small groups, and the entire class (p. 93).]]> 2017-06-04 02:50:16 UTC https://padlet.com/cwlayne/zcig7dyheogk/wish/175089389 cwlayne https://padlet.com/cwlayne/zcig7dyheogk/wish/175089463 When an educator is planning comprehension scaffolds consider the following:
1. Choose what material to use
2. Determine what everyone needs to learn
3. Decide how to engage students with the reading. Pique their interest with such things as real-world observing/participating, preview passages, brainstorm, create analogies, and arouse curiousity. ]]> 2017-06-04 02:53:53 UTC https://padlet.com/cwlayne/zcig7dyheogk/wish/175089463 cwlayne https://padlet.com/cwlayne/zcig7dyheogk/wish/175089725 Students do not all come to the classroom with the same background knowledge.

Before Reading:
1. Ask and answer questions
2. Brainstorm
3. Preview pictures and graphic aids
4. Graphically organize related information
5. Listening to selected portions being read aloud
6. Observe media presentations
7. Predict what you will learn or read about
During Reading:
1. Answer interspersed questions
2. Complete a study guide
3. Post sticky notes on a passage
4. Read along with a passage recording or another individual reading
5. Writing notes while reading
6. Silently reading individually
7. Taking turns reading and talking abut the passage with a partner, in a group, or with the class
After Reading:
1. Apply contents to a related situation
2. Complete and assessment
3. Discuss what you read and learned with a partner, in a group, or as a class
4. Summarize or paraphrase the passage
5. Create concrete displays, dramatic responses, or visual and artistic responses
6. Write about what you learned (Moore, et al., 2011, p. 99-100).

It is important to teach students appropriate comprehension strategies to help them become independent and lifelong learners. ]]> 2017-06-04 04:12:03 UTC https://padlet.com/cwlayne/zcig7dyheogk/wish/175090819 cwlayne https://padlet.com/cwlayne/zcig7dyheogk/wish/175091346 Making predictions are one way to help students build comprehension. Two strategies to use for predictions are:
1. Anticipation Guides are keywords or statements, some of them are true while others are false that are presented to students, and they predict which ones are true and which ones are false (Moore, et al., 2011, p. 103). 
2. Directed Reading Thinking Activity (DRTA) is another way to teach students to predict what they will learn. Teachers normally lead their students to make predictions by reading a portion of the text, stopping and making predictions, read some more, and stop and make predictions. The cycle continues until the text is finished (Moore, et al., 2011, p. 103). ]]> 2017-06-04 04:34:13 UTC https://padlet.com/cwlayne/zcig7dyheogk/wish/175091346 cwlayne https://padlet.com/cwlayne/zcig7dyheogk/wish/175091469 When students are asked to summarize they produce a condense version of what they read or hear.

Direct, explicit instruction is a gradual release of responsibility. It is typically referred to as "I do, we do, you do." Discussion-based instruction helps bring people together to improve their understanding of reading material. Discussions allow for learners to hear the multiple viewpoints. ]]> 2017-06-04 05:24:52 UTC https://padlet.com/cwlayne/zcig7dyheogk/wish/175092247
