Teaching Comprehension for Understanding and Engagement. 

Strategies That Work has become an indispensable resource for teachers who want to explicitly teach thinking strategies so that students become engaged, thoughtful, independent readers. 
This revised and expanded edition has 20 completely new comprehension lessons, extending the scope of the book and exploring the central role that activating background knowledge plays in understanding. 
Another major addition is a section on content literacy that describes how to apply comprehension strategies flexibly across the curriculum.
