Explain how you supported students to apply the literacy strategy in a meaning-based
context.
Students in each group practiced think-aloud strategies when I circulated the groups as I
asked how they came to their solution to the cause they chose. Some students struggled
with practicing the strategy to think-aloud based on intra-textual connections, so I
modeled the strategy that was text based as well as questioned the group about the
cause and what happened. This line of questioning allowed the struggling students to
compose responses based on the story once a consensus was made. Students provided
their rationalization for responses that were text based and showed evidence of
development of strategy proficiency.
