Three Level Guide to Reading Comprehension | 1) Literal- What is written in the text? What does the text say about..? What words support this? 2) Inferential- What is written in between the lines?

Two Ways to Teach Writing | 1) Explicit Teaching 2) Systematic Teaching good teaching approaches should encompass a mixture of the two. e.g. teach in an explicit way (make everything clear) but be systematic |
EXplain Explicit Teaching | (make everything clear) - teacher explains the purpose - presents task (modelling, guiding, demonstrating) - links with prior knowledge - provide scaffolding and feedback e.g. IN WRITING CLASSES-> text structures, explaining the process of writing |
Explain Systematic Teaching | - this is a PROCESS - teacher assesses the students' prior knowledge and the syllabus - teaching in sequence - ongoing assessment of progress |
Explicit Learning Cycle | Assessment --> Plan --> Teach (Explicit/ Instruction OR Systematic) --> Review |
