Findings on Teaching how to read English news stories with a schematic structure (120 students in 3 classes) Students’ knowledge of the structure of news stories: Legend: “Such stories”: “news stories about people” Pre-questionnaire: I know how such stories are organised.

Findings on Reading skills Pre-questionnaire: I can read such news stories quickly and efficiently. I understand what the news is about. Post-questionnaire: I can read such news stories more quickly and efficiently now. Agree and Strongly Agree Pre-questionnaire: 48% Post-questionnaire: 69%

Findings: Very positive feedback Post-questionnaire Previewing: I know how to preview a news article: 82% As a result of knowing the structure, the students know where to look for answers in a news article (e.g. orientation/ incident/ interpretation) Skimming : 76% Scanning: 74%

Findings: Extending students’ understanding about how texts work Debriefing in class: Students asked to compare a human interest story with a hard news story, e.g. a robbery Students are aware of the absence of captions, an overline and the interpretation stage in hard news stories. (Students becoming more critical in reading) Questionnaires show the schematic structure makes students more confident in writing similar articles. Pre-questionnaire: “I am confident that I can write such news stories as a reporter in a school newspaper.” Post-questionnaire: “I am confident that I can write such news stories as a reporter in a school newspaper more successfully now. ” Agree and Strongly Agree Pre-questionnaire: 10% Post-questionnaire: 24%
