by Smekens Education
Consider introducing reading comprehension strategies that will allow you to build concepts in reading throughout the year. Reading is an invisible skill. One way to make it more visual and concrete is to use icons and triggers to help students “get it.” Just like icons and toys make the 6 Traits come alive, there are Smekens original icons and triggers for the different reading comprehension strategies as well.
This product includes:
- An introductory page & brief letter from Kristina Smekens
- A rationale page that includes a specific explanation for how each icon was created intentionally as a way to trigger understanding of the skill it represents
- Six Smekens original Reading Comprehension Icons—placed in a Word document to copy & resize. Use to create readers’ notebook pages, comprehension reminder bookmarks, assignment rubrics, displays for bulletin boards, etc. (NOTE: For classroom use only—NOT for commercial use)
- Retelling/Summarizing Ideas
- Determining Main Idea
- Visualizing Ideas
- Asking Questions
- Making Connections
- Synthesizing Ideas
- Recommended resources when teaching these strategies
- Six 8.5 x 11” posters—one for each reading comprehension strategy
