Comprehension and Response: Before You Watch

Video Summary

The video for this session examines comprehension and response to literature in grades K-2. In her lecture, Dr. Jeanne R. Paratore reviews the essential comprehension strategies of proficient readers, and the explicit and strategic instruction that promotes these strategies. The workshop participants then watch and discuss a set of classroom excerpts that illustrate these concepts. Following their discussion, they work in grade-level groups to develop a comprehension strategy lesson plan.
