Monitoring and Clarifying Reading Strategy Practice – Strengthen Comprehension Skills

Help students develop best practices in teaching reading comprehension with this Monitoring and Clarifying Reading Strategy Practice resource! These engaging comprehension monitoring activities guide students in recognizing when they don’t understand a text and applying strategies to clarify meaning.

In these digital task cards, students are asked to read a small piece of text and monitor any information they don’t understand. Sentence starter prompts are included on each slide and include:

  • I don’t understand…
  • So I will…

Good readers actively monitor their understanding and use different strategies to clarify meaning when reading. By practicing reading comprehension strategies, students will:

  • Recognize when they need to stop and rethink a section of text.
  • Apply strategies like re-reading, using context clues, and asking questions.
  • Build confidence in tackling unfamiliar words and concepts.
  • Improve overall reading comprehension practice for deeper understanding.

Ways to Use These Comprehension Monitoring Activities in Your Classroom

  • Model how to monitor and clarify in real time, but doing this activity as a whole class activity.
  • Reinforce skills by having students complete these digital task cards individually. 
  • Encourage collaborative learning and peer support by making these activities a small group project. 
  • Send home for homework.
