Question

How many of us, I wonder, in our first year of teaching came across that small child who was always reading, always carrying big thick books and invariably introduced as a ‘book worm’? And how many of us quickly figured out that while they were reading, they were not understanding? We all know that reading comprehension is crucial for success in school and, alongside the academic effects, poor comprehension can also have a social and emotional impact. Some children have excellent word decoding skills but a number of factors may interfere with deriving meaning from written material. We asked leading academics, Professor Christine Merrell from Durham University, Dr Paula J Clarke from the University of Leeds and Dr Claudine Bowyer-Crane from the University of York for their advice. So, what should we read if we want to find out more about the process of learning to read and tackling specific difficulties of reading comprehension?​

Answer 2

Answer:

I don't know about a book but I am advising something.

You are not going to find a specific book that solves those issues.

You have to actually ask them to read more, practice more.

You start suggesting books.

Start with something simple like 'The fantastic four'(for students grade 5-7)

or something even simpler like 'Geronimo Stilton' (for students grade 1-4).

They will slowly gain confidence that they can read and will be interested more in reading books.

You can increase the level of difficulty step by step and when you think they are ready enough you give them 'Harry Potter' or 'Percy Jackson'

This all is going to need devotion from both sides from your side and even the students.

If you still want a book here's one 'Theoretical Issues in Reading Comprehension: Perspectives from Cognitive Psychology, Linguistics, Artificial Intelligence and Education'
