Memory Box Review Strategy
• We practiced about 16 different reading and writing strategies in our first two meetings.
• Brainstorm a list of the strategies you have used to help students access text or to make notes since we have met.
• Share with a partner.• Do they have any on their list that you have tried
but forgot? If so, add to your list.• Discuss successes and lessons learned from using
the strategies.

Reading for Meaning
• Good reading is active reading.• Comprehension involves a repertoire of skills, or
reading and thinking strategies.• Comprehension skills can be taught successfully to
nearly all readers, including young and emerging readers.
• A wide body of research shows that teaching students comprehension skills has “a significant and lasting effect on students’ understanding” (Keene, 2010, p. 70).

The Four Principles of Reading for Meaning
• Principle One: Before you get reading, get ready
• Good readers…• Call up relevant background knowledge• Make predictions• Establish their purpose for reading
![Page 6: Gear-up: Content Literacy Jackson Independent/Breathitt Co Schools](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56813c70550346895da6015d/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
• Principle Two: Read like you mean it• Good readers…• Are actively engaging their mind• Separate relevant information from irrelevant
information• Make notes and check their comprehension
while reading

• Principle Three: Just because you’re done reading doesn’t mean your done reading
• Good readers…• Look back at the text• Revisit predictions• Discuss evidence• Reflect on how the text has influenced their
understanding

• Principle Four: Put Reading to Use• The most powerful form of reading is applied
reading – reading that leads to a product in which students synthesize what they have learned.

Reading for Meaning
• Move to the designated table that best describes where you are with your RfM assignment:– A – Have not started a draft– B – Have started a draft, but it is not complete– C – Finished my RfM lesson(s) but have not taught
it yet– D – Finished my RfM lesson(s) and have taught it

Guiding Question
• How can the content literacy standards also help students learn my content?
![Page 13: Gear-up: Content Literacy Jackson Independent/Breathitt Co Schools](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56813c70550346895da6015d/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
What is argumentative writing?
• Review writing standard 1 – argumentative writing.• Summarize the expectations.• Identify texts that you have read recently or use in
your classroom that are examples of this type of writing.
• Review Appendix A on argumentative writing and the KY Literacy Newsletter on this topic.
• Design an icon that represents argumentative writing as defined by the CCSS.
![Page 14: Gear-up: Content Literacy Jackson Independent/Breathitt Co Schools](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56813c70550346895da6015d/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
• Work with a grade alike or subject alike partner to determine how you will help your students distinguish argumentative writing from persuasive, informational, or narrative writing.
• Be prepared to share.
