Good morning, List members,



I am very pleased to welcome Susan McShane, Reading Initiative
Specialist at the National Center for Family Literacy, and Donna Elder,
Reading Specialist at the National Center for Family Literacy, to our
List. They will be leading the discussion on comprehension monitoring
strategies for adult readers. I know many of you have been looking
forward to this discussion and I hope you are prepared to join in with
your questions, comments and experiences.



I would like to get us started by asking Susan and Donna how they
introduce the comprehension monitoring strategies on pages 80- 82 of
Applying Research in Reading Instruction for Adults: First Steps for
Teachers, to students. Is there a particular strategy that you introduce
before the others? How might you present the strategy to maximize
learner buy-in?
