Visual Aid 5: Comprehension

By: Brian Dickson Jr

What can strategies can students use to construct meaning?

There are three comprehension strategies that we will discuss in this presention: metacognitive, cognitive, and social/affective. Each category of comprehension strategies help students construct meaning of text, monitor their enderstandig, and critical engage with what they are reading.

Case Study

For this visual aid, I choose one metacognitive strategy, one cognitive comprehension strategy, and one social/affective strategy to utilize to support the So Yeong's comprehension After defining each comprehension strategy, I will then share a stategy example and explain how that strategy enhances So Yeong's comprehension..

+ info

Metacognitive Comprehension Strategies

Strategies that help students engage and assess their thinking. Students are able to monitor their level of comprehension while reading.

+ info

+ info

Metacognitive Comprehension Strategy Example

Strategy: In My Head Definition:This strategy allows students to document what they are thinking in any form that comes natural to them (writing, drawing, writing in their native language etc). It is a preliminary strategy that allows them to gather their thoughts and prepare to articulate those thoughts out loud.

How does this help So Yeong ?

Being that So Yeong is not an advanced English speaker, giving her space to write what she is thinking in her native language( and then translate with the help of a professional) will relieve her of anxiety and allow her to focus solely on what she is thinking. She will be able to document facts she tends to memorize and begin to form the meaning by thinking about what they mean to her. So Yeong can also pull from her bilingual dictionary, and through recognizing cognates and understanding the meaning of the words she is reading, she can document what and how those things make her feel.

+ info

Cognitive Comprehension Strategies

Strategies that allow students to make meaning of what they are reading through questioning, taking notes, visualizing,etc.

+ info

+ info

Cognitive Comprehension Strategy Example

Strategy: Signature Lines Definition: This strategy prompts students to locate significant lines in text and explain their reasoning behind why they think the line is important.

+ info

+ info

How does this help So Yeong

I believe this strategy will help So Yeong further question why she remembers specific facts and why they are significant. So Yeong will be able to think about what the text actually means to her and how it can be more relevant in real life. She will begin to graduate from simply remembering facts to being able to explain and comprehend their significance.

+ info

Social/affective Comprehension Strategies

Strategies that require peer collaboration, and partnership in questioning text and obtaining clarity.

+ info

+ info

Social/affective Comprehension Strategy Example

Strategy: Critical QuestioningDefinition: Students create questions as they engage with text. They ask personal questions about their understanding to monitor their comprehension and with peers they ask and answer more critical questions that lead them to understand the author’s purpose of writing the text and/or other abstract meanings.

How does this help So Yeong

Through peer discussion So Yeong is able to practice her articulation and witness live English speaking models, that will enhance her phonemic awareness and phonics skills.
