Our Students Can’t Read Their Textbooks! Literacy Across the Content Areas

“Go home and read chapter 10 in your science textbook. Come to class tomorrow prepared for a class discussion.” Sound familiar? How many students read the chapter? What will that class discussion look like? Research shows that when asked to read chapters in their content area textbooks, students focus primarily on linear text. Learn strategies that will not only give your students better access to the text, but have them forming their own questions as they engage with the study of your content area. From building background knowledge to creating advanced projects, watch your students become scientists, mathematicians, and historians through best-practice literacy strategies.
