Reading Comprehension Strategies
The faculty and staff of Timber Trace Elementary are committed to excellence in education by providing an environment which promotes the intellectual, emotional, and physical growth which allows all students to reach their maximum potential. In order to maintain the growth your child has achieved this year, we have implemented a mandatory summer reading program for our students Research has proven that daily reading strengthens a child’s fluency, comprehension, and vocabulary development. Without summer reading, research has shown that children may lose as much as three to four months of the reading progress they made during the school year. Reading includes listening to stories as well as reading independently. Reading Comprehension Strategies Parent Teaching Tips Schema and Background Knowledge Bring your child’s experiences to the text. Experiences are what makes each of us unique. Questioning Make the kids aware that all the things they wonder about help them stay engaged in the text. Inferring Use a gift as an example. You look at the box and wonder, is it heavy, noisy, what shape is the gift? Gather all the information you can and come to a conclusion, but you won’t know for sure until you open the gift. Visualizing Make a mental picture when you read. Thinking Aloud Talk to yourself while you are reading and make connections with the text. Encourage your child to track their thinking with sticky notes. Read to your child. Children of all ages benefit from listening to others read. Discuss the books you read with your child (i.e. character, setting, problem, resolution, sequence of events, main idea, etc.). Be a good reading “model” by letting your child see you read. Introduce your child to books about his/her hobbies, interests, or new experiences. Expose your child to a variety of different types of genres (literature, drama, poetry, fantasy, fairytales, mysteries, non-fiction, biographies, myths, novels, short stories, etc). Get a library card and visit weekly.
