2. Read the chapter.

3. Respond to three out of the four reflection questions:
  • Consider Figure 8.1 on p. 168. How do the Levels of Language Process impact how students understand text? 
  • What does it mean to make an inference and how is it related to comprehension? 
  • Consider the cohesive ties and connectives. How are both cohesive ties and connectives important to comprehension? How might they both  impact your students? 
  • Which classroom activities and/or tools resonated with you? Why?
