I am working with teachers working with grades 3-5 in Strategies That Work- Harvey and using the comprehension toolkits to focus on specific strategies. If you have not seen this material you might want to take a look- just google comprehension toolkits stephanie harvey. However we are having the same problem with students only identifying problems at word meaning level. We are continuing to model other break downs in comprehension. We are also having trouble with 5th graders especially in the Questioning Strategy. They are having a hard time asking authentic questions about what they wonder about-etc. they want to ask mostly literal level questions - a few hows and whys- If anyone has ideas or resources I would also appreciate.
