Teaching metacognitive strategies is a contemporary series that methodically and creatively teaches students the skills and strategies needed for effective comprehension. These strategies have been defined as: understanding words; finding information; identifying the main idea; sequencing; comparing; predicting; concluding; summarising; inferring; cause and effect; fact or opinion; and point of view.
Features include:
original and varied texts, customised to suit the strategy being highlighted
skills and strategies specifically taught using explicitly modelled as well as supported examples and activities
a student ‘test’ page, where students apply the particular strategy being taught; suitable for assessment purposes
background notes and information for each strategy, to assist the teacher and to give the activities the widest possible application
answers where necessary
A high-interest series that doesn’t just talk about comprehension, it teaches it!
