Comprehension Skills & Strategies in a Balanced Reading Program

Fearon Teacher AIDS

Good vocabulary and good reading go hand in hand. Unless children know the meanings of words, they will have difficulty understand what they are reading. Reading is a thinking act, and unless your children comprehend what they are reading, they are not really reading! Help children gain a love of reading and develop the higher-order thinking skills they need to become strategic readers. This book provides a sequential development of such essential vocabulary skills as using context clues to determine word meanings and expanding vocabulary using synonyms, antonyms and homographs. A "fun with words" section to teach word meanings and verbal reasoning is also included. You'll find instructional modeling strategies, student exercises, and ides for implementation. Especially helpful for students on the road to preparing for the Scholastic Assessment Test (SAT).
