TY - JOUR AU - Kedem, Yore AB - Understanding and writing about expository material is difficult for many students. Content classroom activities and assessment tasks, however, are often structured within a framework of student reading followed by extended written response. This multiple probe design across subjects study examined the expository comprehension and informative writing performance of 9 fourth-grade low-achieving students, 4 with disabilities and 5 without disabilities, following Self-Regulated Strategy Development (SRSD) instruction for TWA (Think before reading, think While reading, think After reading) and PLANS (Pick goals, List ways to meet goals, And, make Notes and Sequence notes). Student performance, as measured by oral and written retells, improved and was maintained following instruction. Students also liked the strategies as well as instruction, and believed that TWA + PLANS improved their reading and writing.
