The Jacob's Ladder Reading Comprehension Program targets reading
comprehension skills in high-ability learners by moving students
through an inquiry process from basic understanding to critical
analyses of texts, using a field-tested method developed by the
Center for Gifted Education at William & Mary. Students in
grades 7-8 will learn to comprehend and analyze any reading passage
after completing the activities in Jacob's Ladder, Grades 7-8 (2nd
ed., previously published as Level 5). Using skill ladders
connected to short stories, poetry, essays, and nonfiction,
students move from lower order, concrete thinking skills to higher
order, critical thinking skills. The ladders include multiple
skills necessary for academic success, covering language arts
standards such as sequencing, determining cause and effect,
classifying, making inferences, and recognizing main ideas, themes,
and concepts. The second edition of the book builds off the
previous Level 5 edition, including new readings and ladders for
student use. This book provides teachers with an explanation of the
nature of supplementary tasks that scaffold reading comprehension.
Also included is an overview of the goals and objectives of the
Jacob's Ladder tasks and suggestions for implementation, giving
every teacher the tools needed to promote successful reading
comprehension. Optional Student Workbook Packs In addition to this
teacher's guide, companion student workbooks are available for
Poetry, Short Stories, and Biographies. The student workbooks
feature ample room for student responses and notes, make reviewing
and providing feedback on student work easier than ever, provide
students with an easy-to-use reference to use during discussions,
and save time, as there is no need to reproduce student handouts.
