Such a fun experiment in our science class last week!

[Jenn Dompke @MissDompke]

@BSkarecky @MollieHolzwarth @MsJohnson220 A2. Model for the students and provide questions for the students to reference when picking a book. Make sure they are posted near the classroom library. #comprehendthis

[Jenn Dompke @MissDompke]

A5. Absolutely! The students should be able to refer to their text and support their answers. #comprehendthis

[Jenn Dompke @MissDompke]

A2. Students also need to remember their strategies for reading and strive towards accuracy and fluency. #comprehendthis

[Jenn Dompke @MissDompke]

A4. A teacher can use all about me posters, reward system, job charts, student of the week, and creative cross-curricular academic related projects. There are numerous ways to celebrate students in a variety of settings. #comprehendthis

@Maestrameetworl I’m not sure if it affects their ability2 comprehend, but more potentially shape the way they decide to answer. Perhaps a student grows up in a more sheltered community, therefore their level of comprehension may not be as open minded as a student opposite them. #ComprehendThis

[Jenn Dompke @MissDompke]

A1. Cultural background means the race, location, customs, traditions, and genealogy. #comprehendthis

[Katherine Smith @dunkd3_]

@ManzelloRosario Exactly! Our goal as educators is to prepare students for the future. Decision making is a vital skill to learn. #ComprehendThis

[Jenn Dompke @MissDompke]

A2. We are constantly comparing and contrasting in life. For example, making pros and cons lists to make decisions. #comprehendthis

[Jenn Dompke @MissDompke]

@G_Mazzetta What are ways you could differentiate instruction?

[Jenn Dompke @MissDompke]

@Maestrameetworl @LearningLanger Great point Miriam. How do we decide as educators what is important vs. interesting? Will our students agree?

[Jenn Dompke @MissDompke]

@potthoff_n I agree with you Nick. It can be hard for students to keep a focus on the important parts.

[Jenn Dompke @MissDompke]

@Arhely11 Awesome use of stations to accommodate for all types of learners!

[Jenn Dompke @MissDompke]

@AnnaWians Good idea with summarizing and use of various ways of presenting the summary!

[Jenn Dompke @MissDompke]

Great point about new information!

[Sarai Tapia @iaras___]

Text can be read and as a whole class do an anchor chart on what was important vs what wasn’t. Even though the information is all new, doesn’t necessarily mean it’s all important. #ComprehendThis

[Jenn Dompke @MissDompke]

@MollieHolzwarth I like this idea Mollie! It shows what the students understand before going into detail with the comprehension topic.

[Jenn Dompke @MissDompke]

A5. I think vocabulary should be taught because it helps with students comprehension. Vocabulary should be focused on at least 5 to 10 minutes a day to get kids familiarized with more words and continue to grow. #comprehendthis

[Jenn Dompke @MissDompke]

A2 Reading and writing are together under ELA at my school, but it is up to the teachers for balancing time between each. I think they should be together because the students be one better readers and writers when they learn them together. #comprehendthis

[Jenn Dompke @MissDompke]

@simonsa011 Yes, I will consider conversations and student interests

[Jenn Dompke @MissDompke]

A3. Picking texts that are interesting to them can help the students. We can also use strategies like visualizing and inferencing #comprehendthis
