Middle grade students can learn a great deal about themselves and
their world by reading informative texts in social studies courses.
These texts will focus on important topics in history, geography,
civics, government, and economics and offer students a range of
perspectives on past and present social events. But reading is a
complex act, and most students need specific reading-related
support to understand assigned texts in middle grade social studies
courses. This book focuses on the cyclical nature of reading, the
actions proficient readers engage in to understand social studies
textbooks and other informational texts, and the instructional
support that teachers can provide to enhance middle grade
students’ learning of social studies content through reading.
Three associated questions will be addressed in this book: • What
actions do proficient readers engage in to understand assigned
course texts? • What do these actions entail, and how do they
relate to each other? • What teacher-mediated practices best
support middle grade students’ development as proficient readers
and enhance their learning of course content through reading?
