Reading education pioneer Ellin Oliver Keene demystifies
comprehension instruction by describing "what it can" "look like"
when readers comprehend deeply and "what it can" "look like" when
teachers aim for this deep comprehension. This ground-breaking book
is illustrated with video footage of Ellin modeling the reading
instruction she describes. Here, you can watch Ellin use language
and teaching moves that help students go beyond superficial reading
comprehension to lasting understanding. "Talk About Understanding"

behaviors present when children understand a text deeply including
ways to assess with and teach toward these outcomes. "Talk About
Understanding" Principles-suggestions to modify teaching language
and teaching interactions to deepen children's ability to
comprehend. "From the Inside" Video Segments-classroom footage of
Ellin teaching lessons that illustrate use of the "Outcomes of
Understanding" markers and "Talk About Understanding" principles
from the book. Do your students understand their reading as deeply
as they need to? "Talk About Understanding "has the guiding
principles, the teaching suggestions, the carefully described
outcomes, and the video support to help you teach your students how
to comprehend, thoroughly and eagerly, the varied and complicated
texts in the world around us.
