We’re thrilled to continue our “Unsung Heroes” webinar series, spotlighting the essential skills and processes that fuel reading comprehension. As we’ve explored before, reading comprehension isn’t a skill we can teach—it’s an outcome we must enable. And, as with any great team sport, every “player” deserves recognition for their role in achieving success.
Next in our line-up is vocabulary, arguably the most powerful component of reading comprehension. In this episode, we’ll dive into the research and discuss how building students’ vocabularies helps enable them to engage deeply with texts.
