Rainbow Reading

Grammar instruction is valuable.

✏️Educators can link writing and comprehension instruction in multiple opportunities. Intentional grammar instruction should be explicit, systematic, and sequential and integrated into reading and writing activities. When activities and strategies are presented and practiced with syntactic skills at the word, phrase, clause, and sentence level, overall comprehension can be improved.

✏️ "Studies over the years have shown a clear relationship between syntactic or grammatical sophistication and reading comprehension; that is, as students learn to employ more complex sentences in their oral and written language, their ability to make sense of what they read increases, too." -Shanahan, 2013
