This is an ongoing, recursive process
What is reading
100
These are conscious and flexible plans that readers apply and adapt to a variety of texts and tasks
What are comprehension strategies
100
The instructional use of small groups so that students can work together to maximize their own and each other’s learning is known as what type of learning?
What is Cooperative Learning
100
readers actively search for meaning in what they read and it is constructed from and integrated into pre-existing knowledge. Comprehension is subjective and influenced by the sum total of experience as well as unique intellectual makeup.
What is the cognitive constructivist model of learning?
100
Focusing on academically relevant tasks is known as this kind of instructional principle
What is Traditional?

Many of the decisions you make regarding reading in your classroom are a result of this.
What is your personal understanding of the reading process.
200
Identifying syllables, blending sounds to form syllables and words, and parsing word parts such as prefixes and suffixes, are all examples of these.
What are word recognition skills.
200
Through prints: books for students to read, through work students create, and prints the teacher creates.
How do highly effective primary teachers create stimulating literate environments for their students?
200
the social world heavily influences the meanings we derive from our experiences, and we structure lessons and activities this way to capitalize on this
what is including a variety of group work as part of reading and learning process?
200
Achieving this is often a challenge for students learning English as a second language.
What is achieving Fluency
300
This process is made up of three parts: construction, integration, and metacognition.
What is the comprehension process.
300
Fluency is a result of this.
What is reading appropriate texts, that students can "readily comprehend, learn from, and enjoy"
300
Providing just enough assistance to enable each child to perform at a skill level just beyond what they can do on their own, then gradually reducing the support as the child begins to master the skill, and setting the stage for the next challenge.
What is scaffolding?
300
what is the significance of this beyond the teaching practice and into our everyday lives?
Everything we hear and read is filtered through our existing understanding of reality.
300
reading is enhanced this way
What is by rich background knowledge
400
When a reader encounters a new word, they can use this strategy
What is breaking the word into “chunks” or syllables and then using patterns they know.
400
This is a result of higher order thinking.
What is students grasping topics deeply, retaining important information, and actively using the knowledge they gain in a variety of tasks
400
Effective teaching requires instruction and practice.
What are two specific things required for effective teaching?
400
we use the cognitive constructivist model in this way when introducing a new literary text
what is tapping prior knowledge?
400
Practice involves asking students to do something they already know how to do. Instruction involves showing or telling students how to do something they do not yet know how to do.
What is the difference between practice and instruction?
500
Metacognitive readers can do this.
What is becoming self-regulated learners, knowing what strategies they need to employ in a reading task, having knowledge about themselves and the reading tasks they face (or any other acceptable strategy)
500
This is what happens when students build connections around their learning
What is students realize that their lives are connected to their schooling, and their schooling is related to their lives.
500
A set of principles and teaching behaviours that research has shown to be particularly effective, especially in basic teaching. (could be another acceptable answer)
What does the term “active teaching” refer to?
500
Knowledge is packaged in organized structures called schemata. We have a Schemata for objects such as a house, for situations like being in class, going to different public venues, waking up, eating, going to work etc. These schemata inform our understanding of the content we read. - select reading material that kids have an existing knowledge of.
What is a schemata and how does it relate to the cognitive constructivist model? and how can this influence of selection of reading material
500
This model depicts an entire instructional cycle during which students learn new skills and knowledge and gradually assume increased responsibility for this learning.
What is the Gradual Release of Responsibility Model.
