Improving Comprehension of Expository Text
Date/Time: Wednesday, April 10th - 4:00 pm - 6:00 pm Instructor - Shannon Mural
This workshop will guide teachers to use the structure of narrative texts to help us plan instruction to improve students’ comprehension of narratives. In this unit, we will explore a framework to use when planning comprehension instruction for narrative texts. We will identify specific strategies to address the goals within this framework, highlighting effective questioning strategies that will help students gain a deeper understanding of narrative texts.
