Explore wondrous new woods; seek out new nonfiction and tales of trees; boldly read and roam where no one has gone before with our newest reading and learning adventure —Tree Trekkers.
Many texts contain language (figurative and literal) that can be a barrier to comprehension. We need to see those language walls and teach students how to scale them so their reading has meaning.
Rather than reducing text demands, we should offer instructional and emotional supports that build comprehension and motivation — be positive and encouraging and focus reading lessons on texts worth reading.
