Reading comprehension From WikEd Jump to: navigation search Contents Definition Strategies for teaching comprehension Strategic Reading Personal experiences ... References Definition Reading comprehension - techniques for improving students' success in extracting useful knowledge from text (Mayer, p 34) As defined by Partnership for Reading (2005), Reading comprehension is understanding a text that is read, or the process of "constructing meaning" from a text. Comprehension is a "construction process" because it involves all of the elements of the reading process working together as a text is read to create a representation of the text in the reader's mind. Strategies for teaching comprehension First, a teacher must realize that there is a difference between strategies, skills, and activities. For instance, a skill is soemthing you can do; A strategy is something that helps you do that skill. Also, an activity is an action of the stratgey/idea where someone use phsyical/mental materials to act out the strategy. Essentially: Strategy - Activity - Skill - K. Mattis

Home Programs Curriculum 10-day Schedule ... Request Info Reading Comprehension More effective student reading skills is one of the most important learning skills we teach at SuperCamp. While SuperCamp is much more than a reading skills camp, the improved reading comprehension and reading speed students acquire at SuperCamp benefit our campers for years to come. As we said, the reading skills camp portion of SuperCamp covers both reading comprehension and reading speed, as these two facets work together in our powerful Quantum Reading method. Reading Speed + Reading Comprehension = Better grades and less study time Improved reading comprehension and increased reading speed help students complete their studying in less time and get higher grades. By using a combination of high interest level, highly focused concentration and specific reading comprehension and reading speed strategies, the new student reading skills capitalize on the brain's ability to grasp several words at once. To many teens and kids reading is a chore, that's why we include reading comprehension and reading speed instruction at all SuperCamp program levels. At the start of the reading skills camp segment of SuperCamp, we measure each camper's reading speed and also come up with a reading comprehension score. When the campers complete the reading program, we measure their reading comprehension and reading speed again to see how much improvement they made.

var isReferenceAnswers = true; BodyLoad('s'); On this page Library Animal Life Health History, Politics, Society ... Technology Reading: Comprehension Education Encyclopedia: Reading: Comprehension Home Library Education Encyclopedia From 1997 to 2000 the National Reading Panel (NRP) carried out a review of research-based knowledge about reading and instruction, especially in the early elementary grades. The research topics relevant to early reading and instruction that the NRP concentrated on were phonemic awareness instruction, phonics instruction, fluency , vocabulary instruction, text comprehension instruction, teacher preparation, and comprehension strategies instruction. The group that focused on text comprehension instruction located more than 500 studies on the teaching of comprehension instruction. Using scientific criteria such as whether a study of a strategy instruction included a control group, they found that just over 200 of these studies were conducted sufficiently well to be confident that the conclusions based on them are scientifically trustworthy Comprehension strategy instruction fosters active reading. The strategies are designed to guide a reader to become more self-aware of one's self-understanding during reading, to become more in control of that understanding, to create images related to contents, to make graphic representations, to write summaries, and to answer or to make up questions. Depending on what type it is, a strategy can be implemented
