Accessible Text
• Provide a choice of reading material

connects to the real world
• Give students the opportunity to read
proactive text
• Don’t expect the textbook to do your
job
Instruction Purpose
• Decide what students
should know after reading a
text.
• Focus on the essential
information only
Anticipate Difficulty
Ask…
• Are students lacking background
knowledge?
• Will difficult vocabulary interfere with
meaning?
• Will difficult concepts need to be explained
further?
• Is the text about challenging subject matter?
• Is the text organized in a confusing
manner?
Model How You Would Do It
• Try think out loud at one place
where you think the students will
have difficulty
• Give them tips on how to
negotiate that part.
• Refer them to fix-up strategies
Now What?
• What do you want students to do
with the information they have
read?
• How will they hold their thinking
so they can return to it later?
• Will you have them write a paper,
have a discussion or create a
project?
Model
• Show them how they should hold their
thinking and provide tools
– Graphic organizers
– Sticky Note
– Note taking devices
• What are some other ideas for
modeling?
Setting Purpose for Reading
• Be selective about what kids read
– Only the best parts
• Be specific about your instructional
purpose
– Give students a lens for reading
• Decide how your students will use
what they are reading
– Explain how the information will be used
