  1. Think-alouds By: Emily Munroe and Lauren Kortas

  2. Think-alouds (duffy, roehler, and herrmann, 1988) • A pre-instructional exercise and a during instruction strategy. • Incorporates higher level real texts • Actively reading to improve comprehension • Models mental process • Allows students to take control of their own cognitive process

  3. Procedure For Teacher “1. Use passages that contain unknown words, unclear sections, or contradictions. 2. The teacher reads aloud, stopping to verbalize the thinking that takes place when difficult or confusing material is encountered. The students follow along silently and listen as the teacher thinks through the trouble spots. 3. Students can work with partners to practice think-alouds by taking turns reading short, carefully prepared passages and sharing thoughts. 4. Students can practice independently using the checklist below to verify use of the procedures. 5. Integrate practice with other lessons and provide demonstrations of how, why, and when to use think-alouds.” (Vacca)

  4. Checklist Procedures For Students • Making predictions - students make predictions by using the chapter title or subheadings found within the chapter. • Developing images - students get mental pictures of information found in the text. • Share analogies - students use analogies to link new information to prior knowledge. • Monitor comprehension - students think about their confusion over difficult information. • Regulate comprehension - students read beyond a confusing section to see if the information that comes next will clear up their confusion.
