With think-alouds, students will learn how to recognize problems when they occur, how to isolate problems and name the source of confusion, and how to use the strategies to overcome their confusion. Jeffrey D. Wilhelm

  12. Think-Alouds • Three common responses of struggling readers: • They play through readings, decoding • words but not comprehending. • They don’t bring meaning forward with them • to build upon it as they work through text. • They give up easily.
