Part 1 (Chapter 8): Before you can teach reading comprehension strategies (or anything for that matter), you
must have a clear and deep understanding of the topic, which always starts with what you know about yourself
in that area. After reading and engaging with information on cognitive strategies that support reading
comprehension skills, please take a few minutes to reflect on how you (as a reader) use comprehension strategies
as you read. In your reflection and response, ask yourself:
• Am I aware that I am using cognitive strategies>
• Which cognitive strategies do I use most often?
• Am I aware that I am using metacognitive strategies?
• Am I a strategic reader?
• How does my strategy use affect my comprehension?
Be sure to use and cite the text/reading materials in your reflection to demonstrate the application of information
covered.
Part 2: Using the information from Chapter 9, please reread the vignette at the beginning of chapter 9 (pages
290-293), use the questions in the Teacher Checklist: How Do I Teach Text Factors? (page 319), to analyze Mr.
Abrams’s instruction about nonfiction text factors: In your response, briefly describe and analyze Mr. Abrams’s
instruction and offer recommendations on how the teacher might improve his instruction.
Be sure that you use and cite the text/reading materials in your reflection to demonstrate the application of
information covered.
