Book The Effect of Additional Silent Reading Time on Overall Reading Comprehension

Download or read book The Effect of Additional Silent Reading Time on Overall Reading Comprehension written by Kerin Koelewyn and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to examine how giving students additional silent reading time during class impacted their overall reading comprehension scores. Reading is a part of all language arts classrooms, but the amount of reading students actually do and the strategies teachers use to improve reading comprehension vary widely. This study used a convenience sample that consisted of two similar 7th grade English language arts classrooms, both taught by the same teacher. One class was the treatment group and received the treatment of extra silent reading time each week, while the control class did not. All other curriculum remained the same. A quantitative analysis was used to gather data from the treatment group and control group through a pre-test, post-test, and follow-up test. The comprehension scores of the two groups were compared overall, and were broken down by gender and student achievement levels. Results showed no improvement for either group on the post-test, but there was significant improvement for the treatment group on the follow-up test. There were no significant differences between genders or high and low achieving students.

Book The Comparative Effects of Sustained Silent Readings and Repeated Readings on Reading Fluency and Comprehension of Studnets  sic  At risk for Reading Failure

Download or read book The Comparative Effects of Sustained Silent Readings and Repeated Readings on Reading Fluency and Comprehension of Studnets sic At risk for Reading Failure written by Sarah Ann Knebel and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: This study compared the effects of sustained silent readings and repeated readings on oral reading fluency and comprehension of at-risk students from a 2nd grade class in an urban school with low performance on WJ-III subtests and DIBELS fall benchmark assessments. A multiple baseline across subjects experimental design was used. Intervention was conducted over a 4-16 week period consisting of Repeated Reading. Variables measured were reading fluency: number of correct words read per minute and reading comprehension: number of comprehension items answered correctly. During baseline condition (sustained silent reading) students read grade level passages independently and silently for 10 minutes. They were tested in fluency and comprehension during one minute timings. During the interventions condition (paired repeated reading) students worked in pairs, taking turns reading the passage orally for 10 minutes. They were also tested in fluency and comprehension during one minute timings. The dependent variables in this study were number of words read per minute and the number of comprehension questions answered correctly. Results indicate that students' oral reading fluency and comprehension skills stayed consistent with sustained silent readings, but improved with repeated readings.

Book excerpt: Students referred for school psychology services often have reading skills deficits and experience difficulty in other academic areas. There are no procedures, detect small changes in reading growth as student grade level increases (Skinner et al., 2002). The current study was designed to extend research on CBM reading assessment procedures. Specifically, researchers compared the effects of oral and silent reading on the number of questions participants answered correctly across elementary and secondary students. Additionally, researchers compared the effect reading mode (oral versus silent) had on comprehension rates across elementary and secondary students. Finally, the relationships among oral and silent reading comprehension rate and WCPM and oral and silent reading comprehension level and WCPM were analyzed. Participants were assessed in two sessions. In one session, each student read three passages silently and answered comprehension questions. In the other session, each student read three passages orally and answered comprehension questions. The passages and questions used were selected from the Timed Readings Series (Spargo, 1989). For both reading conditions, the investigator recorded the number of seconds required for the student to read each passage, the number of questions the student answered correctly, and the student's rate of comprehension. For the oral reading condition, the experimenter recorded errors and the number of words read correctly in 1 minute. The results of this study support the validity of WCPM as a measure of comprehension rate, but not comprehension level. The results also indicate that oral reading does not hinder reading comprehension, but may actually enhance comprehension relative to silent reading. Thus, the current results suggest that during CBM, asking students to answer questions after reading aloud is appropriate, but measures obtained from the comprehension questions are only useful if converted to rates. The current results support the use of WCPM as a measure of reading comprehension rates. Although the current results support oral reading comprehension rate as a possible measure of general reading skills, future research is needed to establish the reliability, validity, and sensitivity of that measure.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The purpose of this study was to find if there is a significant difference in the end of the year Communication Arts scores of students who participate in Silent Sustained Reading compared to students who did not participate in Silent Sustained Reading. Demands of No Child Left Behind, increases a mandated curriculum, and the National Reading Panel's statement that silent reading is ineffective has created controversy. This pilot study investigates the impact of independent reading on the reading achievement of a small group of students with special needs. They all received services in Communication Arts and their independent reading levels were below average (lower elementary grade level). The question investigated in this research study was: Does participating in independent reading increase student's reading achievement?"--portion of abstract

Book The Impact of Comprehension Strategies Incorporated Into Sustained Silent Reading on Sixth Grade Students  Reading Achievement

Download or read book The Impact of Comprehension Strategies Incorporated Into Sustained Silent Reading on Sixth Grade Students Reading Achievement written by James J. Eich and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This capstone answers the question how do comprehension strategies incorporated into sustained silent reading impact 6th grade students' reading achievement? I begin by defining the middle school reader, and then explore the purpose of sustained silent reading, provide a definition of reading comprehension, and investigate the effectiveness of sustained silent reading, specifically in response to the National Reading Panel's 2000 stance against sustained silent reading as an effective instructional practice to improve reading comprehension. I challenge the Panel's position by researching five reading strategies--think-alouds, conferences, reciprocal teaching, and response journals--and incorporate these strategies into my curriculum. I provide my results by looking at student journal responses, student reflections, reading test scores from the Measure of Academic Progress, and my own self-reflection. I prove that strategies incorporated into my sustained silent reading program had a positive and significant impact on my students' reading scores.
