Supporting Students Who Struggle With Comprehension Here are five strategies to try out with students who read fluently but struggle to comprehend what they’re reading. 1. Target overall comprehension of language: Recent research reveals that reading comprehension difficulties may stem from an underlying oral language weakness. 2. Teach vocabulary: Because students with poor comprehension often have poor vocabulary skills and understand less of what they hear. 3. Teach thinking strategies: Once students have the vocabulary to be able to make it through a text, they often struggle with the complex thinking or sustained attention. 4. Have students practice reciprocal teaching: Once taught, cognitive strategies can be consistently practiced and implemented through the use of reciprocal teaching. 5. Directly teach comprehension skills: Students should be directly taught comprehension skills such as sequencing, story structure using the plot mountain, how to make an inference and draw a conclusion, and the different types of figurative language. |
