INSERT READING STRATEGY
Description of the strategy This strategy
allows for students to connect to the reading. This strategy is used before,
during, and after reading. The first step is to brainstorm about the article or
reading. The strategy then consists of inserting a set of different symbols in
the margins of the book, article, magazine etc. The symbols help the students connect, analyze and develop
comprehension skills relating to the brainstorm. Also the strategy allows for
reflection on connections and overview on information learned through the text.
Rationale for Use
This
strategy helps the students connect and get interested in the topic. The student can retain the reading by
interacting with the placement of symbols. It will as well allow for students
to become active reader. Also this strategy allows for students to search for
more information about the subject. It also allows the reflection on the
information the students gathered through the reading.
The symbols are the following:
· A check: I knew
that
· A plus sign: I
didn’t know that
· A minus sign: I
though differently
· A question mark:
I thought it was confusing
