Text on Table: Intentional Literacy Instruction
|
Your toolkit for text is filled with the methods and materials that help you comprehend what you read. You have habits, built over years of experience as a reader, that you employ to help you know and grow. We need to help students build their own toolkit for text. It opens the gateway to making sense of new information and growing their ability to do something with it.
Teachers of reading give students things to read, model a think aloud, and ask critical questions.
