Before, during, and after reading strategies are used to help students comprehend texts. Before reading, teachers activate prior knowledge, pre-teach vocabulary, and set a purpose. During reading, teachers model metacognitive skills like predicting and questioning through reciprocal teaching. After reading, students review information through graphic organizers, discussions, summarizing and timelines to ensure understanding of main ideas. These strategies link the different comprehension stages to help students derive meaning from texts and develop problem solving abilities.
This presentation discusses 15 strategies that students sixth grade or above can use before, during, and after reading with a focus on nonfiction texts.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2. Before, During, and After Reading
strategies!
What are they?
Strategies used by the teacher to help facilitate the learning of
comprehension skills in students. These strategies link together before, during, and
after the reading process to teach students how to find meaning in the text, and use
problem solving strategies when students don’t understand a part of the text.
Why are they important?
The ultimate goal of reading is to understand what is being read. Bursuck
(2015) states, “In its simplest form, reading is the ability to decode and understand the
meaning of written words. However, the process of deciphering the meaning of written
words is exceedingly complex because it is influenced by a number of important
factors including the person who is reading, the text being read, the task the reader is
trying to accomplish, and the context in which the reading is being done” (pg. 280).
This being said, students with poor comprehension skills need to be taught the various
skills of how to process text in a way that might identify the important information
needed to understand it.
3. Let’s start at the Beginning!
Before Reading Strategies
The following strategies are used before reading. The purpose is prepare students with
knowledge they might need to better understand the text.
Examples
Connect text with Prior Knowledge
Picture Walk
Identify text features
Pre-teach key vocabulary
Create a Purpose for Reading
4. Connect to Prior Knowledge!
Allowing students a way to connect to the text using prior knowledge allows them to better
understand what they are reading. It can also help them retain new information in their long
term memory.
Ask questions
Everyone share an experiance
5. Picture Walk!
Picture walks allow students to look at the
illustrations and make predictions about what the
text will be about.
The teacher guides students through the text and
looks at each photo.
Connections to identify
Prior knowledge
Predictions
How the photo relates to the title
6. Identify Text Features
Text features play an important role in the comprehension of expository texts.
It’s important that students are taught how to identify these features and use
the feature appropriately so that it will aide in their comprehension of the text.
Text Features
Bold words
Italicized words
Lists
Structure of print
Paragraph Headings
Picture Captions
Data Tables
7. Pre-Teach Key Terms/Vocabulary
Defining unknown vocabulary and key terms prepares
students for comprehending the text better.
Students skim text to identify unknown words, and then define.
Assign a word to groups of students to define using a graphic organizer like the Frayer
Model.
Dramatization of the word.
Have students use the word to create their own sentence.
8. Create a Purpose for Reading
Teachers create a purpose for reading to give students clues
to listen or look for when reading.
Make predictions before reading.
Introduce the after reading activity.
Allow students to select their own reading text
Anticipation guide (List of statements that they agree or disagree with that can be found in
the text)
9. Let’s start reading!
During Reading Strategies
The following strategies are during the reading process. The purpose is to teach and model
important metacognitive skills that help in understanding a text as a student reads.
Examples
Reciprocal Teaching (Predict, Question, Clarity, Summarize)
Think A-loud
Fact Charts
Close Readings
Seed Discussions
10. Reciprocal Teaching
The teacher asks students to make predictions and then the
students monitor their predictions and change their answers
as they read.
Students Make predictions.
Students question what they are reading and how it relates to their prediction.
Students clarify what the text states
Students summarize in your own words.
11. Think A-louds
Teachers read a text and stop at brief points to make
comments about what he/she is thinking as he/she reads.
This models the metacognitive language students should use
as they read.
Ask questions
Make connects with prior knowledge
Identify confusing language or words and look for context clues
Answer previous questions when found in text.
12. Fact Charts
Teachers create a chart to list facts learned from reading the
text. This is allows students to identify key details within a
text.
KWL
Facts List
13. Close Readings
Bursuck (2015) states that close reading is “A method in
which students read and reread text in order to focus on its
increasingly deeper meanings.” (pg. 292).
Used for complex text.
Question for each reading should increase in difficulty
14. Seed Discussions
Students create discussion topics as they read.
Questions I don’t understand
Comments about things I’ve learned
Things that seem interesting or surprising
Vocabulary I want to know more about
Descriptive writing that I particularly enjoyed
Things that remind me of other things I know
15. Time to Review!
After Reading Strategies
The following strategies are used after the reading process. The purpose is to review
information gained from the reading and ensure there was an understanding of the main
ideas within the text.
Examples
Graphic Organizers
Discussions
Compose the Test
Summarize
Create a Timeline
16. Graphic Organizers
Students use graphic organizers to revisit information learned
from the reading.
Venn Diagram
Descriptive Map
Network tree
Cause and Effect
17. Discussions
Students discuss topics from the text. This helps students
verbal show their understanding, while also allowing them to
hear others thoughts and ideas that might widen their
understanding.
Seed Discussion Topics
Class Discussion
Small Group Discussion
Debate
18. Compose the Test
Students create their own test question using the
text as a guide. Helps student decide the main
idea and important information from the text.
Students write 1-2 questions (compile and use the questions for the test)
Small groups create a test, then each groups test is passed around to be taken. The test is
then turned back in to be corrected by the original group.
Students create a test for future classes.
Teach students the 4 QAR’s (Question, Answer Relationships) and have them design
questions from the text.
19. Summarize
Students put what the main idea and key details into their
own words.
Oral Summary
Summary games
Save the Last Word
1. Students choose a key detail or paragraph and copy it onto the front of an index
card.
2. On the reverse side they write what they liked or found interesting about the detail
or paragraph.
3. One at a time the students read the passage or detail they wrote down.
4. Other students make comments about what they liked or didn’t like about that detail
or paragraph
5. The student who wrote the paragraph or detail gets to have the last word by reading
what they wrote on the other side.
20. Create a Timeline
Students create a timeline to organize the events in a text.
Biographies
Historical Texts
Describing Life Cycles
21. In Conclusion…
Before, During, and After Reading Strategies
Using these strategies through out the reading process is a great way too ensure
students are understanding what they are reading. The metacognitive skills being taught
in Before, During and After reading strategies help students to become life long learners
as they will be able to determine the meaning from a variety of texts by using the various
problem solving skills you teach them.
