When 'googling' about reading comprehension and comprehension strategies I kept coming across the name 'Sheena Cameron'. She has some fantastic resources and books available.
Here is a little blurb about Sheena taken from her own website: About Sheena Cameron.
Sheena Cameron is an experienced primary/elementary
school teacher who has taught in New Zealand, England and the United States. Her
interest in reading and in particular, what to do with students who are working
independently when the teacher is with a guided reading group lead to the
publication of The Reading Activity Handbook,(Pearson Education
2004).She has also written The Publishing and Display Handbook,(Pearson
Education 2006) which looks at setting up creative and interesting classrooms
and contains 74 different ways to publish student work.
Her latest book Teaching Reading Comprehension Strategies - a practical classroom guide, (Pearson Education 2009),was released in October
2009. The book is based on current research in reading comprehension and
outlines how to translate this into realistic classroom practice.
Sheena has lectured at the Faculty of Education at Auckland University and was Director
of Kohia Teachers’ Centre. She currently works in New Zealand and Australian
schools facilitating workshops and providing in-school support in the areas of
literacy, classroom environment and student publishing. She also facilitates workshops at Kohia Teachers’ Centre at the Faculty of Education at the University of Auckland, New Zealand.
On her website you will find links to her publications, workshops and also (my favourite) free printable resources.
Another website that that has free printable activities that relate to Sheena's work is here: Reading Comprehension Downloads
I hope you will find these websites useful and I hope you can make use of the downloadable resources.
