Does this make sense? With hocked gems financing him, our hero bravely defied all scornful laughter that tried to prevent his scheme. “Your eyes are deceived” he had said. “An egg not a table correctly typified this unexplored planet.” Now three sturdy sisters sought proof. Forging along sometimes through calm vastness, yet more often over turbulent peaks and valleys. Days became weeks as many doubters spread fearful rumors about the edge. At last from somewhere, welcomed winged creatures appeared signifying momentus success. From: Subjects Matter by Daniels and Heinemann
COMPREHENSION • Sometimes we spend so much time thinking about the “new stuff” that we don’t realize kids might not know the hidden knowledge
Teaching to the “Match” • If you’re well matched you say, “I just read it.” • If you’re somewhat matched you say, “I got some of it.” • If you’re mismatched you say, “I didn’t get it at all.”
So what are your choices? • “You read it, come back and I’ll tell you what it said.” Or hold a “class” discussion. • “We don’t really DO reading in my class.” Kids remain frozen as readers during your hour. • You might need to build background knowledge FOR reading not THROUGH reading.
Content Area Strategies • Pre-Reading Strategies • During Reading Strategies • Post-Reading Strategies Let’s start with Pre-Reading…
Pre-Reading Strategies • Set a student up for success • Familiarize students with new vocabulary words, concepts and terms • Ignite interest in the reading • Establish purpose for reading • Make connections to their own life, prior knowledge and/or other courses
List of Quick Write Prompts • I learned… • I remember that… • I already knew that… • I was wrong to think… • I would explain… • The confusing thing… • I was surprised… • A person should know… • My definition of this… • A key term is…because • I can tell you that… • Something I should share about this is… • I want to learn more about… • Something that people get wrong about…is… • I changed my thinking about… • A brief summary of…should include…
Difference between: • Ask the whole class: “What is an integer?” • Ask the whole class: “Write down and explain what an integer is.”
What to do with the writing? • Collect the writings • Circuit the writings: pass two or three or ten times – as much as you like! • Create a gallery walk
Sequential Roundtable Alphabet • Use 7 – 10 minutes • Using every letter of the alphabet, try to come up with a word or phrase that fits the unit or topic • Ask, “Why should I accept that?” • Each group goes up with transparency and each group subsequently puts up only new words. Source: Doug Buehl
Just a thought… “If kids don’t ever have to access your discipline through reading it in your class, they’ll never do it on their own.” Doug Buehl
Story Impressions • Give students a list of words or phrases which they use to write a paragraph anticipating the content of a reading • Cut away everything but the key concepts and phrases • Advantages: builds anticipation for reading and also allows for more “quick writes” practice Doug Buehl, Classroom Strategies for Interactive Learning
Try this… The Great Depression: 1929 to the 1940’s Black Tuesday Failed banks Hobo camps Dust Bowl Young Adults
Story Impressions • Doing with a partner reduces anxiety and allows for more discussion of content • Use as a post-reading summary by adding 5 new words • Use this as an essay prompt
During Reading Strategies: • Help students “hold their thinking” • Help students make connections while they read • Encourages students to visualize • Encourages questioning • Helps students improve their ability to self-monitor as they read
Q-NOTES • Similar to Cornell Notes • Go through the text or reading, looking at titles, subheadings and topic sentences • Using the left-hand 1/3 of the paper, turn those titles, etc. into questions • On the right-hand 2/3 of the paper answer the question with information from the text or reading • Use bullets or dashes to help organize your ideas, use symbols and abbreviations to help you take notes more efficiently Source: Jim Burke
Q NOTES Name_________________ Date_____________ Topic________________ Period___________
Pairs Read • Put students in pairs (duh!) and ask students to determine who is “A” and who is “B”. • Students will read the text paragraph by paragraph, with Student A reading the paragraph and Student B paraphrasing what was read, then alternating. Source: ICLE Strategic Reading Kit
Alternatives for Pairs Read • Students can read silently, then take turns paraphrasing what was read. • Students can read, then choose one of the following: 1. Make a comment 2. Ask a question 3. Make a connection
The LessonResearch Suggests a New Format Traditional Format New Format Prereading Activities Discussions Predictions Questioning Brainstorming Setting Purpose Reading Assignment Given Guided ACTIVE Silent Reading Activities to clarify, reinforce, extend Knowl-edge Independent reading Discussion to see if students learned main concepts, what they “should have” learned Source: McRel
Post-Reading Strategies • Allows students to process their thinking more deeply and carefully • Gives students a clear “record” of their reading and their processing
