Frame of Mind
How do think-alouds, reciprocal teaching, QARs, and QtAs model reading/thinking/learning strategies for students as they interact with text in a discipline?
Describe the procedures associated with each of these instructional strategies: KWL, directed reading-thinking activity (DR-TA), Guided Reading Procedure (GRP), Intra-Act, and Discussion Web. How do these instructional strategies support thinking and learning with text? Which of these strategies may be particularly useful when adapted to your content area?

Using Think-Alouds
Select passage that contains points of difficulty, ambiguities, contradictions, or unknown words
Have students listen as you model thinking aloud
Have students practice with partners Have students practice independently Encourage students to transfer the process to
other reading

Think-Alouds
Develop hypotheses by making predictions
Develop images
Share analogies
Monitor comprehension
Regulate comprehension

Question–Answer Relationships (QARs):Where are answers to questions found?
In the Text: Right There Think and Search
In Your Head: Author and You On Your Own
Copyright © Allyn & Bacon 2011
Questioning the Author(QtA) Identify major understandings and potential
problems with a text prior to its use. Segment the text into logical stopping points
for discussion. Develop questions, or queries, that model
and demonstrate how to “question the author.”

Procedures for KWL
Introduce the KWL strategy in conjunction with a new topic or text selection.
Identify what students think they know about the topic.
Generate a list of student questions.
Copyright © Allyn & Bacon 2011
Procedures for KWL
Anticipate the organization and structure of ideas that the author is likely to use in the text selection.
Read the text selection to answer the questions.
Engage students in follow-up activities to clarify and extend learning.
Copyright © Allyn & Bacon 2011
Procedures for the Discussion Web
Prepare your students for reading by activating prior knowledge, raising questions, and making predictions about the text.
Assign students to read the selection and then introduce the discussion web by having them work in pairs to generate pro and con responses to the question.
Copyright © Allyn & Bacon 2011
Procedures for the Discussion Web
Combine partners into groups of four to compare responses, work toward consensus, and reach a conclusion as a group.
Give each group three minutes to decide which of all the reasons given best supports the group’s conclusion.
Copyright © Allyn & Bacon 2011
Procedures for the Discussion Web
Have your students follow up the whole-class discussion by individually writing their responses to the discussion web question.

Guided Reading Procedure (GRP)
Prepare students for reading.
Assign a reading selection.
As students finish reading, have them turn books face down.
Help students recognize that there is much that they have not remembered or have represented incorrectly.
Copyright © Allyn & Bacon 2011
Guided Reading Procedure (GRP)
Redirect students to their books and review the selection to correct inconsistencies and add further information.
Organize recorded remembrances into some kind of an outline.
Extend questioning to stimulate an analysis of the material and a synthesis of the ideas with previous learnings.
Copyright © Allyn & Bacon 2011
Guided Reading Procedure (GRP)
Provide immediate feedback, such as a short quiz, as a reinforcement of short-term memory.

Valuation
Reflection

Directed Reading–Thinking Activity(DR–TA) Begin with the title or a quick survey of the
material. Ask, “What do you think this will be about?” and “Why do you think so?”
Ask students to read silently to a predetermined logical stopping point.
Repeat questions as suggested in step 1.
Copyright © Allyn & Bacon 2011
Directed Reading–Thinking Activity(DR–TA) Continue silent reading to another suitable
point.
Continue in this way to the end of the material.
