*RE: I am investigating the use of literacy during science instruction. The utilization of reading comprehension strategies during the reading of science text could influence students' achievement in reading and science. What comprehension strategies would you recommend to use during science that would help a student to better understand the text and utltimately improve their achievement level in reading and also science? This investigation is being targeted at third, fourth, and fifth grade students.* Delta Science has an informational science book series, *Seeds of Science, Roots of Reading,* that might be useful for you. Explore the strategy guides under teacher resources. I have just a few single copies of their books but have used the strategy guides with other informational books on the similar topics. http://www.scienceandliteracy.org/ _______________________________________________ Mosaic mailing list Mosaic@literacyworkshop.org To unsubscribe or modify your membership please go to http://literacyworkshop.org/mailman/options/mosaic_literacyworkshop.org Search the MOSAIC archives at http://snipurl.com/MosaicArchive _______________________________________________ Mosaic mailing list Mosaic@literacyworkshop.org To unsubscribe or modify your membership please go to http://literacyworkshop.org/mailman/options/mosaic_literacyworkshop.org Search the MOSAIC archives at http://snipurl.com/MosaicArchive
