CMRSU and Metacomprehension Stategy

I gave my students two different assessments on Friday to gauge their use of comprehension strategies found in Strategies for Reading Assessment and Instruction on page 282 and page 284. The Classroom-Modified Reading Strategy Use Table Assessment showed me that most of my students are using some type of comprehension strategies when reading.  The mean score was a 2.  The lowest score was a 1.8 and the highest at 2.4.  According to the assessment, most students were not stopping while they read to ask questions to assess their own comprehension.  Retelling in their own words, associating new words with pictures, and drawing a map or outline for clarification in the story also is a problem.  So Mrs. T can use this data to help figure out which strategies she should stress more.
