The Impact of Efficiency on Comprehension
When students struggle simply to make their way through the text, comprehension suffers.
How Inefficient Reading Makes Comprehension Harder
About half of students in Grades 3-12 read silently in ways that make comprehension more difficult. They read slowly, lose the thread, and tire quickly. No wonder they don’t want to read. The good news: with targeted instruction and practice, students can significantly improve their silent reading efficiency.
