독해 이해 FLEX 수업: 자녀가 알아야 할 8가지 전략

The ultimate goal of reading instruction is comprehension. In this 8 week FLEX course, students will learn how to use eight research-based strategies to improve their reading comprehension, plus practice applying them to their own reading. These strategies will serve as an anchor students can reflect on when reading any text.

In a supportive and collaborative environment led by a certified, UVA-trained reading specialist, each weekly session will include a link to a Nearpod presentation showing:
 -a video read aloud that models the comprehension strategy being taught
 -practice of the strategy using teacher provided texts 
 -opportunities to practice the strategy we are working on with a fiction book they are currently reading

Each week, questions will be posed in our classroom for students to respond to.

Students will be asked to post photos of their work to the classroom each week for teacher feedback.

Each week will be devoted to a different key reading comprehension strategy:
Week 1: Activating Background Knowledge/Making Connections
Week 2: Predicting
Week 3: Visualizing
Week 4: Asking Questions
Week 5: Making Inferences
Week 6: Determining Importance/Finding the Main Idea
Week 7: Summarizing
Week 8: Metacognition/Comprehension Monitoring

Students can practice these comprehension strategies at any reading level, but please note that the texts used in class will be around a 4th-5th grade reading level.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out.
