Abstract

This study investigated the relationship between teachers’ comprehension monitoring strategies instruction and students’ reading comprehension in the context of the Interactive Strategies Approach –Extended intervention (ISA-X, Gelzheiser et al., 2011). In the ISA-X, the teachers were encouraged to provide third and fourth grade students with comprehension monitoring strategies instruction, which was called “Mix up? Fix up!” (MUFU) strategies instruction. The study focused on students who had grade-appropriate reading accuracy but limited reading comprehension.
