Description
This session summarizes research on talented readers (grades 1-8) and current instructional programming for these students. The special needs of this group are discussed as are specific differentiated strategies that enable them to make continuous progress in reading using the Schoolwide Enrichment Reading Framework with three phases of reading instruction. Stimulating read-alouds are implemented, accompanied by higher-level critical and creative questioning focusing on reading strategies that challenge and engage talented readers. This research-based approach includes opportunities for independent reading with differentiated conferences focusing on analysis and synthesis using advanced reading strategies and self-selected in-depth project-based work.
