Making Connections Reading Posters

These Making Connections Reading Posters are designed to help students develop critical reading skills by making connections before, during, and after reading. The colorful set features practical examples and guiding questions. The cards cover three main types of connections:

• Text-to-Self Connection: Encourages students to relate content to their personal experiences.
• Text-to-Text Connection: Aids in drawing parallels between the text at hand and other texts the student has read.
• Text-to-World Connection: Helps students link the story to broader world events or situations.

Each poster includes clear, easy-to-understand text aimed at improving comprehension skills. This tool is perfect for classroom activities, home schooling, and general reading practice, tailored for young readers in elementary grades. It not only enhances engagement with the text but also fosters a deeper understanding and appreciation of literature by relating it to the students' own lives and the world around them.
