Chapter 2 - What We Know About Comprehension
  1. Discuss the strategies proficient learners use as they read, listen, and view.
  2. Spend sometime studying the "comprehension continuum." What examples can you link from your own students?
  3. The authors cite Richard Allington's 3 principles that lead to better reading instruction. Consider your classroom teaching and learning through the lenses of these three principles: the volume principle, the response principle, and the explicit instruction principle. Discuss your own teaching in relation to these principles.
