Using Literacy Strategies To Make Meaning-Guided Math
Reading Comprehension Strategies
Reading comprehension is essential for understanding math. Students need to be able to read and understand the text in their math books, as well as be able to read and understand the problems that they are asked to solve.
There are a number of reading comprehension strategies that can be used to help students to improve their understanding of math texts. These strategies include:
- Previewing: This involves looking through the text before reading it to get a sense of the topic and the main ideas.
- Predicting: This involves thinking about what the text is going to be about based on the title, the pictures, and the prior knowledge.
- Visualizing: This involves creating a mental picture of the text as you are reading it.
- Connecting: This involves making connections between the text and your own experiences and knowledge.
- Summarizing: This involves identifying the main ideas of the text and writing a brief summary.
- Questioning: This involves asking yourself questions about the text as you are reading it.
- Inferring: This involves making logical s about the text based on the information that is provided.
- Evaluating: This involves thinking critically about the text and making judgments about its accuracy and validity.
Vocabulary Development
Vocabulary is another essential component of math instruction. Students need to have a strong vocabulary in order to understand the mathematical concepts that they are learning.
