Read, Strategies That Work! Teach her those strategies to begin teaching her to think as she reads. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Emily Welch" <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, May 27, 2009 8:07:25 AM GMT -07:00 US/Canada Mountain Subject: [MOSAIC] How to teach comprehension to fluent reader I am a third grade teacher with a class made up largely of English language learners . I have one student who has continuously challenged me this year. She is a fluent reader (latest assessment on a grade level text was 97% accuracy and 106 wcpm), but her comprehension is terrible. Even when I allow her to use a book to retell/answer questions/etc, she still struggles with even the most basic of comprehension skills. I have tried a variety of things throughout the year that my other students seem to benefit from, but I just haven't found what works for this particular student. Please let me know of any strategies you have found that work to help an already fluent reader comprehend what she is reading. Thank you!!!
