Selecting A TextSelecting a text is a key element to literacy instruction.It is important to bring in other types of text to allow your students to gain a deeper understanding of the types of texts that are available (i.e., web articles, leveled readers, themed stories, or basal series).Teach students the different genres of stories that are avialable and how best to distinguish between those genres. When readers know what to do during reading, it has a tremendous impact on how well they comprehend, but comprehension involves more than just reader factors. It also involves text factors (Tomkins, 2010)
