The homework still requires you to paraphrase a text. Last time you paraphrase an excerpt from Tardy's journal article. Now you should paraphrase an excerpt from a book titled Teaching Reading Comprehension to Students with Learning Difficulties by Janette K. Klingner, Sharon Vaughn and Alison Broadman. Here are the instructions:
1. Copy the following text to your computer.
2. Paraphrase the text.
3. Write each idea using a different color so that rearranged ideas can be easily spotted.
4. Send the original text and your paraphrase by email before Friday, 12 November 2010 in a .doc file.

HOW DOES TEACHING VOCABULARY
FACILITATE READING COMPREHENSION?
FACILITATE READING COMPREHENSION?
Regardless of what you teach—math, science, history, biology, or government—one of your major responsibilities is to teach key vocabulary and concepts so that students can comprehend what they read and understand the academic language of the discipline. For example, in mathematics, the words minus, divided, and area have specific meanings that allow students to comprehend math problems. Even if students understand what the words mean generally, they will also need to learn the specific academic meaning of the words.
