Importance of Strategic Reading
“If you read and comprehend what you read, it stays in your brain. But if you read and don’t comprehend what you read, it will just go in one side of your brain and SWOOSH real fast right out the other side.”
Jake Scheffler, Grade 7

Why Use Strategies?
• To set a purpose • To see how others connect • To understand characters • To have a clearer picture • To be actively involved (keep from being bored) • To better remember what we read• To answer the questions we have• To extend our existing knowledge• To understand complex concepts

The Reader’s Importance
“Readers usually grossly underestimate their own importance. If a reader cannot create a book along with the writer, the book will never come alive…the author and reader know each other. They meet in the bridge of words.”
Madeleine L’Engle

Making Connections
Schema is the background knowledge and experience readers connect with the text.
Good readers access their schema naturally making connections as they read.

How To Teach Connections
• Model how to make meaningful connections that help you understand the text better.
• Provide plenty of guided practice.• Challenge students to analyze how
their connections contribute to their understanding.

Assessing Connections
1 2 3 4-5Makes no connections between text and background knowledge.
Makes simple connections, but cannot explain them, or the connections are irrelevant to the text.
Relates background knowledge/experience to text and expands interpretations by using schema.
Explains how schema enriches interpretation of text and makes connections beyond life experience.

Visualizing
Visualizing is the creation of a vivid mental picture in the mind.
Good readers picture what is happening while they are reading.

3 Point Interview
Visualizing1. When you were reading this story did you
make any pictures or images in your head?
2. Do the pictures or images help you to understand the story better?
3. What do you understand now about the story that you didn’t understand before?
Adaptation of Major Point Interview found in Mosaic of Thought (Keene & Zimmerman, 1997).

Assessing Visualizing
1 2 3 4-5
Cannot describe sensory images.
Describes some visual or other sensory images; may be tied directly to text or description of the picture in the text.
Describes own mental images, usually visual; images are somewhat elaborated from the literal text or existing picture.
Creates and describes multi-sensory images that extend and enrich the text, and can explain how those images enhance comprehension.
![Page 28: Reading Comprehension in a Nutshell](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022102617/568144a3550346895db16831/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)

Predicting and Inferring
• Inferring is making personal meaning from text that is not stated explicitly.
• It is a mental combining of a reader’s schema and what is read.
• Predicting is using what you know to make a good guess about what will happen next.
![Page 29: Reading Comprehension in a Nutshell](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022102617/568144a3550346895db16831/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
29
Predicting and Inferring
Good readersthink aboutwhat’s going tohappen andmake predictionsbased on whatthey read.
Good readers revise their inferences as they read more, and when they hear other interpretations.

How to TeachMonitor and Clarify
• Model how to STOP and think aloud by paraphrasing the text.
• Model choosing “Fix-up” strategies to clarify misunderstanding.
• Provide plenty of guided practice.• Challenge students to analyze how their
paraphrasing and “fixing” contributes to their understanding.
