Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this action research study was to determine if explicit direct instruction of comprehension strategies, particularly in questioning, would improve students' reading comprehension, which in turn increase instructional reading levels. Participants were taught the comprehension strategy "questioning" through the process of direct modeling, guided practice, and independent practice. Data were collected throughout the duration of the study, and the effectiveness of explicit direct instruction of questioning was determined. Findings suggested that by explicitly teaching questioning as a comprehension strategy, students became more engaged with text and increased their instructional reading level. This study encouraged me to continue to implement best practices in teaching comprehension strategies to ensure the success of students at Prairie Ridge Elementary in Cedar Rapids, Iowa.
