    Study Notes

    Holistic Approach to Reading Instruction

    • A holistic approach to reading instruction helps students develop a love of reading that benefits them throughout their academic and personal lives.

    Cognitive Model of Reading

    • This theoretical framework explains how readers process text and construct meaning.
    • Reading is a complex process involving several cognitive processes, including attention, perception, memory, and comprehension.
    • Readers are viewed as active participants in the reading process, using their prior knowledge and cognitive strategies to make sense of the text.

    Schema Theory

    • Schemas are mental frameworks used to organize and interpret information.
    • Readers use their existing schemas to make sense of new information and create connections between new and existing knowledge.

    Cognitive Strategies

    • Cognitive strategies are mental processes used to facilitate comprehension and the construction of meaning.
    • Examples of cognitive strategies include predicting, monitoring comprehension, summarizing, and questioning.
    • Teaching students to use cognitive strategies can improve their reading comprehension and overall reading achievement.

    Implementing the Constructive Model of Reading

    • Strategies and activities that encourage students to actively engage with the text and construct meaning by integrating their prior knowledge with the information presented in the text.
    • Examples include activating prior knowledge, questioning, summarizing, graphic organizers, collaborative learning, and metacognition.
    • These strategies can help students become more active and engaged readers, and develop the skills they need to construct meaning from the text.
