Description
Assess students' real-world functional reading and comprehension of short media, tech, and social alerts in daily life, work, and community settings. Short refers to the length of the text, meaning passages are between 1 phrase to 1 sentence in length. Gather valuable data about the real-life functional reading and comprehension skills through age-appropriate and realistic graphics for middle school, high school, and transition-age teens and young adults. *Questions are automatically read aloud. Media, Tech, and Social Alert Examples: → TV ads → Phone storage alerts → Log in and password messages → Online order checkout step → Weather phone alerts → and more! Students will practice functional reading through: → Using context to anticipate the meaning of the text → Text meaning → Finding a specific text in a graphic with lots of other text (signs, etc.) → Matching two different texts with the same meaning → and more! This deck pairs best with the Media, Tech, and Social Alerts (Short). Functional Reading Lesson Unit on TeachersPayTeachers.
