01

What Students Need to Do

Students choose reading strategies that fit the text and their purpose. They preview, question, infer, reread, summarize, and check whether their understanding makes sense.

02

What Mastery Looks Like

Students preview a text, monitor their understanding, and adjust when meaning breaks down. They can summarize key ideas, support inferences with evidence, and explain why a chosen strategy helped.

03

Common Misconceptions

Students may treat predicting as guessing without using text clues. They may highlight everything, retell every detail, or use the same strategy for every reading task.

04

How to Assess It

Give students a short unfamiliar passage and three prompts: What will you do before reading, when meaning breaks down, and after reading? Ask them to answer one inference question and name the strategy that helped.

1. 01

   Give pairs a challenging article, sticky notes, and three labeled spaces to record a prediction, a question, and a summary.

2. 02

   Ask students to write: Which reading move helped you solve confusion today, and what changed in your understanding?

3. 03

   Play Strategy Match: students draw a reading problem card and choose the best response, such as reread, infer, or check a source.

4. 04

   Have students read bus schedules, menus, or game directions and explain which strategy helped them find the needed information.
