When reading science texts, students often do not know what they know. Prereading activities can help students build bridges from the known to the unknown. Brainstorming will help students recognize their own prior knowledge on the subject and learn from hearing each other's responses. An anticipation guide is a teacher-generated list of questions that are asked of students before reading the text to elicit thinking, arouse curiosity, and focus attention. Science teachers can use graphic organizers to introduce new technical vocabulary from the unit under investigation and to illustrate the interrelationships that exist among the various concepts and terms. Capitalizing on students' curiosity increases students' motivation to read, which leads to an increase in comprehension. Providing students with a list of terms and having them classify them and identify their reasons for doing so will not only stimulate student interest but will also help the teacher find out what students do and do not know about the topic. Active comprehension on the part of the students can be promoted by asking them to make predictions as to the content of the selection. (MG) |
