What does research say
about Talking Text? Remember your student who struggles with comprehension? Would they benefit from: – pre-reading to increase comprehension? – reading to access standard or advanced materials? – reading and listening together (reinforcement)? – reading selected words or phrase? • Talking Text also helps writers to hear omissions or inaccuracies in their work. • Developing Reading Comprehension Is a Complex Skill • If a Great Deal of Effort Goes to Sounding Out Words, Energy for Comprehension Is Reduced • Talking Text Can Provide One More Tool for Supporting Comprehension for Some Students (Rose & Dalton, 2002) |
