Instructional intervention

The title of the project is Making Meaning through Written Response.  The problem is to figure out and understand what students think about when they read.  Also find out if the student comprehends what they read.  The instructional intervention is using reading journals which is a form of note taking to developing a greater content.  The instructional intervention that is used is Summarizing and Note taking and.  The evidence that is presented the students who are lower level reading and writing need more of a push or critical questions in order for comprehension.  The better the student understands what they are reading, identify key information, and provide a summary that helps them keep the information.   When students revise their own note, the notes become more meaningful.   The data that is collected is from the students responding to their novel.  The instruction intervention is collecting by the teacher and reviewed to investigate which students are struggling and which are not.  The entries were analyzed into six categories.  Lower level readers were basic a little evidence of details to support their ideas, which were unclear.  Average readers were longer entries with higher level reader entries had ample literary analysis that included all the six categories.  They found that reading journals helped student by allowing them the opportunity to gain insight into their thinking, and provide instruction based upon this observation.
