Answer to #7

Answer: Students need to develop visual literacy because both reading and writing involve visual processing. Readers create images as they read, while writers produce images to express their ideas. Teachers can assist students in developing visual literacy by identifying components of visual literacy, developing strategies to interpret images, connecting images to aspects of text, and creating their own images.

Answer to #8

Answer: Reading comprehension is a complex activity that includes a reader's: activating prior knowledge, making predictions, inferring, visualizing, asking and answering questions, attending to the text structure, monitoring the developing meaning, engaging fix-up strategies if needed, noting important vocabulary, making connections, and evaluating the author's purpose and point of view.
