KWL
KWL is instructional technique used to improve
reading comprehension and a student's ability to remember the material. KWL is
most often used with expository reading materials such as classroom textbooks.
K-W-L (Ogle, 1986) is an instructional reading strategy that is used to guide
students through a text. Students begin by brainstorming everything they Know
about a topic. This information is recorded in the K column of a K-W-L chart.
Students then generate a list of questions about what they Want to Know about
the topic. These questions are listed in the W column of the chart. During or
after reading, students answer the questions that are in the W column. This new
information that they have Learned is recorded in the L column of the K-W-L
chart.
The K-W-L strategy serves several purposes: Elicits
students’ prior knowledge of the topic of the text. Sets a purpose for reading.
Helps students to monitor their comprehension. KWL is intended to be an
exercise for a study group or class that can guide you in reading and
understanding a text.You can adapt it to working alone, but discussions
definitely help.It is composed of only three stages that reflect a worksheet of
three columns with the three letters:
K
What I know

W
What I want to
know

L
What I learned
