In Supported Reading Lessons:Students:• read independently
with a purpose;
• give critical responses to the text; and
• talk about messages and meaning in the text.
Teachers:• use pre-reading tasks to
activate prior knowledge;
• use effective questioning to foster critical thinking; and
• teach reading skills and strategies in context.
