Book Reciprocal Teaching at Work 3rd Edition

Download or read book Reciprocal Teaching at Work 3rd Edition written by Lori D. Oczkus and published by ASCD. This book was released on 2018-07-06 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this fully revised and expanded third edition of the bestselling Reciprocal Teaching at Work, Lori D. Oczkus provides both tried-and-true and fresh solutions for teaching reading comprehension. Reciprocal teaching is a scaffolded discussion technique that builds on the Fab Four strategies that good readers use to understand text: predicting, questioning, clarifying, and summarizing. With a focus on these four evidence-based and classroom-tested strategies, Oczkus presents new ways to use reciprocal teaching to improve students' comprehension while actively engaging them in learning and encouraging independence. Appealing to students and teachers alike, reciprocal teaching encompasses social aspects of teaching and learning with modeling, think-alouds, and discussion. This helpful guide is packed with fresh material, including * More than 40 new and updated step-by-step lessons and minilessons that reflect current thinking and best practice. * Dozens of rich suggestions for diving into informational texts. * Updated research and relevant results that show the effectiveness of reciprocal teaching. * Creative and targeted tips that capitalize on the specific benefits of whole-class settings, guided reading groups, and literature circles. * Ideas for differentiating instruction for struggling readers and English language learners. * New and newly designed support materials, including reproducibles, posters, bookmarks, and a lesson planning menu. With a wealth of ideas to get you started—and keep you going—this is the all-inclusive resource you need to help students become active, engaged, and independent readers who truly comprehend what they read. Reviews and Testimonials "Literacy coach and author Lori Oczkus knows how to take the best of what works from long-established research and showcase it to make teaching and learning more effective, engaging, and enjoyable. In her latest edition of Reciprocal Teaching at Work, she demonstrates how to scaffold instruction so that all K–12 students can benefit from reciprocal teaching techniques, what she calls the "Fab Four"—predicting, questioning, clarifying, and summarizing—in whole-group, guided reading, and book club settings, for both fiction and informational texts. In clearly delineated lessons and minilessons, Lori deftly shares how to support students' learning, including English language learners and students who struggle, so they can successfully apply and monitor those four discussion strategies—as well as troubleshoot problems—to yield significant progress in their reading comprehension. Filled with great practical ideas, this gem of a book is a must-have for all literacy educators!" —Regie Routman, author of Read, Write, Lead; Literacy Essentials, and Reading Essentials "Reciprocal teaching works to push students into deeper learning. There are decades of research on the impact of this instructional approach, and this book shows you how to implement and refine the practice such that all students succeed." —Doug Fisher, author of Checking for Understanding and Visible Learning for Literacy "One of the great instructional research discoveries of the past three decades has been the efficacy of reciprocal teaching for improving student learning and reading comprehension. More than anyone, Lori Oczkus has explored practical ways for making reciprocal teaching an integral part of nearly any classroom setting. This current work by Lori represents the epitome of her work in translating reciprocal teaching research into practice. Readers will find this immensely readable book filled with strategies that can be easily implemented and that will improve student learning. If you are interested in improving your students' reading achievement, you need to read this book!" —Timothy Rasinski, author of The Fluent Reader and Close Reading with Paired Texts "In this new edition of Reciprocal Teaching at Work, Lori Oczkus offers new thinking while reinforcing the best practices that make her ideas timeless. Through these engaging lessons and smart instructional moves, you will empower your students to build the confidence and competence they need to become strong, independent readers." —Donalyn Miller, author of The Book Whisperer "On every page of this book, in every activity and plan, the voice of a gifted and empowering teacher inspires the reader. In a major revision of her classic work, Lori Oczkus engages the immediacy and demands of today's classrooms with the most robust constellation of strategies for teaching comprehension. She compellingly demonstrates how the "Fab Four" are engaged across the grades, and she powerfully scaffolds, supports, and reassures teachers in their efforts to incorporate reciprocal teaching across a broad communication, textual, and digital terrain." —Shane Templeton, Foundation Professor Emeritus of Literacy Studies University of Nevada, Reno, NV

Book The Effects of Reciprocal Teaching and Peer Tutoring in a Third Grade Classroom

Download or read book The Effects of Reciprocal Teaching and Peer Tutoring in a Third Grade Classroom written by Pamela S. Mertz and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT: This qualitative research study documents the observed and reported experiences of a regular education teacher and her class of eighteen third grade students when using the strategies of reciprocal teaching and peer tutoring in reading and other content areas in a public school located on the edge of an urban area. All participants in the study received reading instruction from the author in the regular classroom setting. The study examines the students' use of the reciprocal teaching strategy and its effects on student engagement and interaction. The study explores the quality of student discussion and involvement with text to assist students with reading comprehension. The author defines the reciprocal teaching strategy (Palincsar & Brown, 1984) and documents the process of instructing the method, including adaptations made to the strategy to better accommodate students. Reciprocal teaching and peer tutoring are similar in their social nature and the author studies the interrelationship between the two, and the ways the strategies complement each other. The study suggests that students have increased opportunity to read, contribute answers, practice verbal and written skills, and that the social interaction provides modeling from peers. The study documents the students' ongoing use and varied levels of proficiency with reciprocal teaching and peer tutoring. Finally, the author questions how to implement reciprocal teaching and peer tutoring into other content areas.

Book The Effects of Reciprocal Teaching on Reading Comprehension in a High School Chemistry Class

Download or read book The Effects of Reciprocal Teaching on Reading Comprehension in a High School Chemistry Class written by Katherine J. Nash and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This project quantitatively investigated the effects of reciprocal teaching in a high school chemistry class. The experimental group was introduced to five reading comprehension strategies and instructed to use these strategies while reading chemistry related sections from their textbook. The researcher's control group read the same passages individually while the alternative control group did not focus on reading in the classroom at all. Results showed the researcher's groups, which focused on reading, improved their reading comprehension test scores. In contrast, the alternative control group's scores on the same test decreased during the same time period. When comparing the use of strategies with the experimental group versus the individual reading with the researcher's control group, the weekly passage scores were statistically significant for only the experimental group" --Abstract.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to examine if implementing reciprocal teaching with a small group improved the reading comprehension ability of students identified with a specific learning disability in reading. The participants included four 8th grade students who are identified with a learning disability in reading. Baseline stability was established over a four week period using the AIMSweb Maze comprehensive assessment. The students then participated in reciprocal teaching three times a week over a four week period during their science class. They were assessed weekly with AIMSweb Maze passages to track progress throughout the intervention. The data shows that all participants improved their performance on the Maze assessment throughout intervention. Discussion and implications for further research are included.

Book Metacognitive Effects on Reading Comprehension

Download or read book Metacognitive Effects on Reading Comprehension written by Kevin Lilly and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT: The following research study reports the effects of Think-Alouds, Reciprocal Teaching, and Reflective Journaling on the reading comprehension of third grade students. Data was gathered via pre- and post-surveys, researcher observations, student work, student quotations, member-checks, and assessment scores from global reading tests. The strategies were implemented one at a time. Think-Alouds and Reciprocal Teaching were modeled by the teacher and scaffolded so that most participants were able to use them independently by the end of the study. Reflective journal entries were collected throughout the study. Analysis of the data revealed that students' reading comprehension was positively affected by the three metacognitive strategies. Appropriate instruction of metacognitive strategies have a beneficial impact on the reading comprehension of third grade students.
