Free Webinar – Content Literacy: Teaching Comprehension Strategies Across the Curriculum

Content matters. Thinking matters. We teach comprehension strategies in the literacy block and also across the curriculum in science and social studies so kids can learn, understand, and remember it. Above all, comprehension is a knowledge-building activity. The more content knowledge we have, the more likely we are to grow it.

Content literacy is all about how kids acquire knowledge, as well as how they make sense of it and use it every day. When we teach content literacy, we build a foundation of thinking strategies that will benefit students throughout their lives.
