About this Course

The How to teach reading for meaning online course will cover all the reading strategies covered in the face-to-face course, but was mainly created to give the teacher that can not attend the face-to-face courses, a chance to get the knowledge and skills to address and assess reading in the Intermediate and/or Senior Phase classroom effectively.

Some of the reading strategies include:

* Using predicion

* Inferencing

* Teaching and assessing using comprehension tests effectively.

* KWL model.

Although the course is in English, manuals will be available in English, Afrikaans and IsiXhosa.

Teachers that successfully complete the course will get a certificate of completion and SACE Professional Development points.
