  1. Informational Text Strategies for Improving Reading Comprehension

  2. Think While You Read • Make Connections • Ask Questions • Make Inferences • Visualize • Determine Importance in Text • Synthesize Information from Strategies that Work, Harvey and Goudvis, 2000

  3. Make Connections • Between the text and your past experience or background knowledge • Between the text and another text • Between the text and things that happen in the world

  4. Ask Questions While Reading • Proficient readers continually ask questions • Before reading • During reading • After reading

  5. Make Inferences While Reading • Not all “answers” or facts can be found directly in the text. • “Read between the lines.” • Writers sometimes IMPLY meaning; readers INFER that meaning.

  6. Visualize While Reading • Create pictures in your mind • Use author’s words • Use your own background/experience • Make comparisons • Note words that appeal to senses

  7. Determine Important Facts and Details While Reading • Activate prior knowledge • Note characteristics of text • Skim text • Read bold print, illustrations, graphs and tables • Read first and last line of each paragraph carefully • Take notes or highlight text when possible; use sticky notes in textbooks

  8. Synthesize After Reading • Retell information • Add personal response • Make comparisons and contrasts • Attempt to answer “I wonder” questions • Make application of reading to real world

  9. External Text Features That Signal Importance • Fonts and Effects • Cue Words and Phrases • Illustrations and Photographs • Graphics • Text Organizers • Text Structures from Strategies that Work, Harvey and Goudvis, 2000

  10. Informational Text Organizers • Table of contents • Preface • Index • Glossary • Appendix

  11. Informational Text Structures • Chronological/Sequential Order: A main idea is supported by details that must be in a particular sequence. • Enumeration/Description: A major idea is supported by a list of details or examples. • Comparison/Contrast: The supporting details of two or more main ideas indicate how those concepts are similar or different. • Cause/Effect: The supporting details give the causes of a main idea or the supporting details are the results produced by the main idea. Pennsylvania Assessment System Classroom Connections, 2005

  12. Signal Words and Phrases to Look for in Chronological Structure • first next then initially before after when finally preceding following Remember! Chronological/Sequential Order: A main idea is supported by details that must be in a particular sequence.

  13. Text structure: Chronological/Sequential Order Example: First, Golden Eagles soar high along ridges near their nests. Then, they search for prey. When a meal is spotted, they attack in a long swoop.
