Cooper Middle School: The Hidden gem of cobb county
In class, we have been using the "About Point" strategy to assist students in increasing their reading comprehension. This technique can be used with all reading levels.
Students stop after reading a chunk of text and write a sentence using the following sentence frame. "This section is about _______________________________; and the point of this section is __________________________. Students with lower Lexiles and in Read 180, will want to write an "about point" sentence summary for every 1-2 paragraphs of a text. Students with higher Lexiles and in AC will want to write an "about point" summary statement for each page they read.
