4th Grade Reading Powers
Starting next week, we will be learning Reading Powers! Reading Powers are comprehension Strategies.
I will be implementing these in our classroom. These strategies provide students with the tools to become more thoughtful and meaningful readers as well as how to become“meta-cognitive” or aware of their thinking while they read.
Authentic children’s literature specifically chosen to help teach and practice each of the five Reading Powers: connect, question, visualize, infer and transform. These books are used for modeling, guiding and supporting students, enabling them to successfully focus on the strategy and acquire a deeper understanding of their thinking.
