Francis Pleasant Robinson in his book, Effective Study (Harper & Row, 1946) developed a reading strategy for college students to help students improve their comprehension of textbooks. Swarthmore College still offers a link through their Office of Learning Resources today as does Ohio’s Columbus State Community College. I often come across the SQ3R strategy–Survey, Question, Read, Recite, Recall– in my work as a Reading Resource Specialist. It’s recommended to help students improve their reading skills, one of those tried and true strategies (not the only one!) I found a fun SQ3R interactive you might want to try from the Oswego City School District of New York. They put together a website, StudyZone.org, to help students and their teachers prepare for state tests in English/Language Arts, Math and Social Studies.
A few other links of interest are here on SSPP Reads–Interactive Learning and Writing Skills. There you can find links to our writing program, Step Up To Writing, the template for MLA style research papers, Wordle, Houghton Mifflin Graphic Organizers, Build A Word for Kinder and First Graders, and more.
