To be literate is to think through multiple perspectives, explore diverse texts, and use the power of story to give students the life skills to discuss just about anything with critical curiosity. Critical Comprehension transforms this vital work into an accessible instructional framework. Using picture books, multimodal texts, and thoughtfully framed questions, each differentiated lesson expands students' understanding of a text through a three-read process: First read: The "movie read," during which the text is read without interruption. Second read: The teacher poses questions that probe deeper meanings through interaction with the text to summarize, name and highlight issues, analyze and infer, and make more informed decisions about what to believe and what to question. Return read: Harnessing students' curiosities, the teacher guides the class to revisit the text to explore theme, symbols, central idea, or social, cultural, and historical influences at work on the author and audience. Popular media, classic novels, breaking news-the world's content is ready for students to absorb. But are we ready to help them read it well? Equipped with this resource, the answer is, Yes, we are.
