Based on the book The 7 Keys to Comprehension by Susan Zimmerman, participants will learn about the seven reading comprehension strategies. The strategies include creating mental images, using background knowledge, asking questions, making inferences, determining most important ideas and themes, and using fix-up strategies for a deeper understanding of text. Teachers will learn how to model the strategies for students by using mentor texts. A host of decoding strategies will be shared with participants, so they may enable students to draw upon a toolkit of decoding strategies to help them read fluently, read with expression, and read with meaning.This mini course meets for two sessions: January 13 and 27, 2010, 4:00 pm to 7:00 pmRegistration for this course is closed because it is filled to capacity.
