What you can do in your classroom
Model reading and finding main points and supporting details
Assign expository readingAsk students to identify main points and
supporting details in the reading you assign or do in class through outlining, webbing, charting, etc.
Have students at least once per unit plan read, break out main points and supporting details, and summarize the text (It doesn’t have to be a major project, but record what you did on your unit plan)
![Page 14: READING GOALS IMPLEMENTATION Big Horn High School School Improvement](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062620/551aa02f550346761a8b5f5a/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
“What’s the bottom line?”
We need to ask students to read to learn new
information to increase their understanding ask our students to write summaries or
expository responses about the main point of their reading…
AND
record it.

Strategy 2
Text-to-world connections – All students will learn and practice the reading strategy of making text-to-world connections specific to expository text.
![Page 16: READING GOALS IMPLEMENTATION Big Horn High School School Improvement](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062620/551aa02f550346761a8b5f5a/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Strategy 2 Activities
Teachers will incorporate and model the Think-Aloud strategy in their classrooms on a monthly basis.
Students will read expository texts and implement two strategies: Activating Prior Knowledge and Making Text-to-World Connections.
After reading expository texts, students will respond to what they have read using specific textual details, applying it to broader topics and issues.
Using the PAWS rubric, teachers will provide feedback for the student’s written responses.

What you can do in your classroom
Model the reading strategies Assign expository readingHave students “write to think”
Respond to the text by writing about connections Write a paragraph response to a prompt asking
students to link the text to other events in the world.Use the PAWS rubric to score student writing
![Page 22: READING GOALS IMPLEMENTATION Big Horn High School School Improvement](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062620/551aa02f550346761a8b5f5a/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
“What’s the bottom line?”
We must create school-wide opportunities for students to
practice good reading strategiesread to understand how information in
the text fits into broader topics and issues, and then
write about it;
… moreover, we must keep a record of it.

Where do we go from here?
Add strategy activities to your unit plans for both main ideas & details and text-to-world connections
Provide staff presentations monthly of what teachers are doing
Share source ideas for expository reading material
Celebrate the things we do well and dance…a lot

Think Alouds
Simply put, this is reading a text to or with your class and stopping intermittently to say what you are thinking about the text at that particular moment.
A similar Step-Up strategy is a teacher-led reading where the teacher pauses in the reading and asks students to write something about the text.
It is important to provide students with photocopied text that they may annotate for this purpose, have students keep 2-column notes, or provide sticky-notes to students to write their reactions and stick to the text.

Activating Prior Knowledge
Engage students in discussion about what they already know about a subject prior to reading
