Slide 21 of 29
Notes:
Also provides some additional procedures for assessing strategic reading.
Look-backs: Allow to distinguish between poor comprehension due to poor memory or poor comprehension due to inability to understand the text.
Give the student the text and ask them if they can look back to find the answers that were not known or incorrectly answered. This alternative procedures begins with third grade passages. Why not before?
Thin Aloud Statements High School passages have STOP written throughou. Notion is to stop and think out loud about efforts to understand, judge, reason, the content of the passage. The examiner first shares their own think aloud, asks for student’s and writes it in.
Might ask a secondary student to take notes from a passage read or not read. Suggest passage not read, but could do either. Not scored but does give you some diagnostic information.
Questions and prompts not on QRI but it is the way you teach comprehension.
In general we spend very little time teaching comprehension, we ask questions, (assess) give assignments (practice) do not teach. Exchange that the book provides is a good example of a teacher actually teaching a student how to understand text.
