The purpose of this product is to help students understand and use reading strategies to make sense of a text.
A ‘reading strategy’ is anything that a reader does to understand what they are reading. It can be as simple as reading more slowly, and as complex as making judgments about the idea organization of a text.
For this product, we’ve selected 6 of the most powerful and broadly useful reading strategies:
Reread
Visualize
Adjust Reading Rate
Infer
Question The Text
Summarize
Each reading strategy was chosen based on its ability to be used in almost any content area by students anywhere from K-12. In this way, it has the best chance to be internalized and transferred into daily use by the student.
