CRLP Results for Reading Comprehension provides teachers with routines for linking holistic reading comprehension instruction to grade-level text and diverse literature through the lens of an assets-based pedagogy. Results for Reading Comprehension supports teachers in designing effective instruction to help their students make meaning from complex grade-level text, whether read aloud to them or read by them with instructional support, and to use evidence from the text to demonstrate their comprehension. Lesson planning includes a 10-Step Core Routine for building content knowledge and guiding teachers in creatively thinking about and choosing appropriate strategies and scaffolds for comprehension of challenging texts, following a general instructional sequence for before, during, and after reading.

• Become familiar with a 10-Step Core Routine of instructional strategies to help all students better comprehend complex texts, with an emphasis on those students historically underserved by California schools: students of color, multilingual learners (MLs), and developing readers

• Improve motivation and engagement for students to successfully and independently comprehend complex text in all content areas

• Understand how strategic knowledge-building routines can enhance student background knowledge and improve a child’s reading comprehension and critical thinking
