Mosaic of Thought, Second Edition: The Power of Comprehension Strategy Instruction

Unleash the power of comprehension strategy instruction in your school.

Effective reading instruction begins with a reading teacher who understands the cognitive processes used by proficient readers. Help your teachers understand these processes, and the research behind them, and unleash the power of comprehensionstrategy instruction with the School-Based Seminar based on the new edition of Mosaic of Thought.

Working with examples drawn from a decade of teacher innovation in the use of comprehension strategies, participants will learn how to provide explicit, in-depth instruction in comprehension. They will explore how to roll out strategy studies over time, how to perform think-alouds, and the importance of employing effective conferring practices to help students move along the continuum of reading development from novice to proficient reader.
