The Key Three Routine: Comprehension Strategy Instruction

This webinar with Joan Sedita, Founding Partner of Keys to Literacy, will review the research on effective comprehension instruction and introduce participants to a model for embedding comprehension strategy instruction into content classroom instruction. Three foundational skills will be introduced: main idea skills, note taking and summarizing. Activities that incorporate these skills will also be reviewed, including topic webs, generating questions from main idea, two-column notes, and summaries from reading and class lecture. This webinar will be particularly useful for classroom teachers, administrators, and literacy specialists working with grades 4-12.
