Answer to Question 1

FALSE

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Reading comprehension activities need to promote a student's reading for meaning. The activities a teacher employs require the student to recall prior knowledge, make support, revise predictions, summarize, and apply new knowledge to other texts. Activities suggested in the text to promote comprehension include directed listening thinking activities (DLTA), directed reading thinking activities (DRTA), story/content impressions, retellings, story mapping, and predict-o-grams. All texts used during these activities need to be at the students' instructional reading level.
