Download or read book Effects of Using Background Knowledge to Increase Student Comprehension for English Language Learners written by Jennifer Leigh Grund and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this research was to work with young English language learners to improve reading comprehension. The study investigated a child's background knowledge and vocabulary prior to a guided reading lesson. The author asked the student's parents to fill out a survey on each lesson to help the teacher anticipate how the child's experience would influence the lesson. The readings were taken from the Read Well language arts curriculum for grades K-3 (designed by Sopris West Educational Services). The researcher compared student's comprehension on two attempts at readings where at first the child had little background knowledge of the setting, and again after the teacher helped the child make connections related to the story. The data were collected over 4 weeks during guided reading instruction groups. Students improved comprehension after discussing the reading with teacher. The strategies used will help students stay engaged in the lesson.
