Developing Metacognitive Strategies

Strong comprehension is not just about what students read, but how they think while they read. Developing Metacognitive Strategies is a Structured Literacy framework that teaches students to think about their thinking, building the deep comprehension that skilled readers rely on.

The curriculum engages students in both the depth and breadth of language, with rich opportunities for teacher modeling, student practice, and differentiation.

In this course, you will learn:

• Activities that increase oral language
• Strategies for increasing vocabulary and background knowledge
• Summarization activities and questioning techniques
• Progress monitoring for fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension
