Question: 1 / 400

What should a teacher perform with students to help them understand a text before reading it?

Discussion prompts

Picture walk

Before reading a text, a teacher should perform a picture walk with students to help them understand the text. A picture walk is when the teacher guides students through the text by looking at the pictures and discussing what they see. This helps activate students' prior knowledge, build anticipation for reading, and make predictions about the text. Picture walks can also help students make connections between the images and the text, enhancing their comprehension before actually reading the words. This strategy is particularly effective with younger or struggling readers to support their comprehension and engagement with the text.

The other options are not typically used to help students understand a text before reading it. Discussion prompts, quick quizzes, and summary exercises are more commonly used during or after reading to deepen comprehension, check for understanding, or review the text.
