Problem Being Investigated Learning
to read is a complex process. To become a reader and writer, an individual
must be able to coordinate a variety of skills. Most children are able to
make progress and achieve the skills necessary to read written material, but
some are not able to negotiate and construct meaning through text. It is for
these learners that I began to probe into the area of reading comprehension.
What skills and strategies can I teach to my students to develop their
awareness of reading and increase their understanding of text? With that in
mind, my research focused on the effects of transactional strategies
instruction (TSI) to help acclimated readers increase their interaction with
the text and increase their reading comprehension. Plan
for Outcome Transactional
strategies instruction is a balanced approach to reading instruction. Direct
modeling and direct instruction of decoding skills and comprehension
strategies are the recommended methods to teach TSI. TSI is a flexible
approach to teach reading and allows individualization. With modeling,
flexibility, and individualization of the transactional strategies
instruction, I hope to observe improvements in my students’ reading
comprehension. Also, I hope to witnesse my reading students becoming more
engaged and aware of their reading by using a repertoire of TSI comprehension
strategies. |
