[MOSAIC] Student Struggling with Comp.

[K Dombroske]

I am a regular ed teacher in an inclusion class with  very "developmentally diverse" students.  I read this term in someone's posting and I really like it.  It explains how I have students at various levels in term of decoding and comprehension.  My coteacher and I, both 2nd yr teachers, are really perplexed with one of our 6th grade students.  She can decode at the fourth grade level, using DIBELS and DRA assessments, but is comprehending very little of what she reads or what she listens to read aloud.  We really have not found anything that has helped her improve her comprehension.  While I do not work with her in reading in small groups I would like to come up with a plan to use with this student.  Any suggestions of where to start?  I was thinking of trying Ellin Keene's MPIR assessment, but is that necessary since we already know she is not comprehending much?  We do have a TA who we could possibly use to work with the student one on one.  Thanks for any suggestions.  ~Kecia, 6th gr
