Introduction:

In the quest to improve students’ comprehension of content reading materials, the next step is to design a set of questions and activities that will lead the students through the surface level of understanding and into the deeper levels of understanding. The idea is to provide a scaffolding of opportunities so that the students have a variety of chances to read, reflect, analyze, organize, internalize, and draw conclusions.
