 | This just in... Comprehension Strategies are often not being taught, yet skilled readers who have been taught comprehension strategies know how to get meaning from text. |  |
|
 | I wonder how they do that... |  |
|
|
|
|
|
 | A good reader does not just dive right into a text. There are strategies a good reader uses before, during and after reading to help aid comprehension. We call the skilled reader a metacognitively sophisticated reader. |  |
|
 | so, how do I become a metacognitively sophicated reader? |  |
|
|
|
|
|
 | You too can become a metacognitively sophisticated reader with the help of a good reading teacher. A good reading teacher will teach you decoding and comprehension strategies, model them, and scaffold your learning until you know how and when to use the strategies you have learned. |  |
