Ep. 3: Reciprocal Teaching — Four Roles to Make Reading Comprehension Visible
Reciprocal Teaching sits at #2 on our High-Impact Protocols list with an effect size of 0.74 — making it one of the most powerful ways to boost comprehension. This episode explores how the four roles — predict, question, clarify, and summarize — turn passive reading into active meaning-making.
You’ll learn:
How to model each of the four roles and launch the routine in one class period.
Ways to chunk texts so students practice multiple cycles in a single lesson.
Adaptations for ELA, science, social studies, and electives.
How to gradually release responsibility so students run the process independently.
By the end, you’ll have a clear plan to use Reciprocal Teaching to deepen reading comprehension and student dialogue — whether you teach novels, primary sources, case studies, or even lab procedures.
