1. What have you learned about using knowledge of structure, content, and vocabulary to understand informational text?

Text structure is one specific type of prior (or background) knowledge that skilled readers possess. Good readers can identify important information in a text and are aware of how other textual information relates to the important propositions. They can do this even when, as often happens, the text is not well organized. These readers are applying cognitive patterns—rhetorical structures—that they have already acquired, first via their oral language experience and later via their reading. These patterns guide them to the recognition that (for example) a given text compares two entities, or that it presents a problem and a solution to that problem. Readers who can identify the structure of a text are better able to locate the information they need for successful comprehension.
