- Synopsis
- Building on twenty years of teaching language arts, the author shows how students can be taught to successfully read a broad range of challenging and difficult texts with deeper levels of comprehension. In this book, the author shares effective, classroom-tested strategies that enable your students to: accept the challenge of reading difficult books; move beyond a "first draft" understanding of the text into deeper levels of reading; consciously monitor their comprehension as they read; employ effective fix-it strategies when their comprehension begins to falter; use meaningful collaboration to achieve deeper understanding of texts; think metaphorically to deepen their reading comprehension; reach deeper levels of reflection by understanding the relevance the book holds for themselves and their peers; use critical thinking skills to analyze real-world issues. The author also provides guidance on effective lesson planning that incorporates strategies for deeper reading.
