This month on READ, we’re revisiting one of our most popular episodes featuring Dr. Sonia Cabell to highlight the vital role of knowledge in reading comprehension.

In this conversation from episode 50, Dr. Cabell and Danielle discuss the integrated nature of reading comprehension, knowledge and writing. You will learn about

  • the reciprocal nature between background knowledge and comprehension.
  • literacy and content-rich instruction.
  • effective practices for integrated literacy and content instruction.

Read Dr. Cabell and colleagues' (2025) study of a content-rich reading curriculum on kindergartners' vocabulary, comprehension, and content knowledge.
