the text• Response to literature:
o Indicate how readers transact with texto Readers might retell, relate to their experience,
and/or reflecto Consider the Achievement Chart categories for
assessment

Explicit Instruction
GOAL: increase students’ metacognitive awareness and use of reading strategies
1.Direct explanation (describe what the strategy is and explain why the strategy should be learned and used) 2.Modeling (model it and provide examples of the circumstances under which the strategy should be used) 3.Guided practice and scaffolding 4.Feedback 5.Application

How do you select an Instructional Strategy?
1. listen to and look at what learners are doing while reading
2. assess and record what you hear and see them doing
3. share what you observed learners doing with them4. cue and prompt learners in ways that are
responsive to what they are doing5. teach learners strategies that are related to what
you observed them doing as they read15
Fluency Instructional ImplicationsIf learners:•make letter-sound (visual) miscues, provide decoding strategies•rely heavily on letter-sound (visual) cues and make meaning miscues, emphasize the use of context cues•make syntactic miscues, consider a reader’s oral grammar that they might be relying on
16
Comprehension Instructional ImplicationsIf learners:•have difficulty answering factual questions, provide strategies for locating information in text and using text structures •have difficulty answering inferential questions, provide prompts for connecting text to their experience and strategies for using their knowledge to make meaning
