Biographies
Andrea - My name is Andrea Chan and I am a grade 10 student at Lambrick Park Secondary School. I love science fair. This is my second time attending the Canada Wide Science Fair and I am so excited to be going again. This year's project is a continuation of last year's project. My partner Matt and I are trying to improve the link between fluency and comprehension in early readers. Even though primary age students have high oral reading success they don't understand retain the information or possibly don't understand what they have read. I am not a total nerd. I am a competitive rower. This is my second year rowing and I absolutely love it. I also love cats. I don't really understand the connection between science fair, rowing and cats -- but those are my top three favourite things.
Matt - My name is Matt Treble, and I am a grade 10 student at Lambrick Park Secondary School. My partner, Andrea Chan, and I have done an expansion on our last year project, "Big or Small; Narrow or Wide", and this year we were looking at ways to improve reading comprehension in elementary readers, while investigating the relation between reading fluency and comprehension! Other than spending most of my time being nerds with Andrea, I play the piano and guitar. Also, I like to run and swim, and have been training to be a lifeguard and recently got my NLS. I volunteer at a local library helping kids read in a program called "Reading Buddies", while also doing a reading mentor ship with some elementary students at a local elementary school! This is my second time attending the Canada Wide Science Fair, and am beyond excited to be returning this year as part of the Vancouver Island team!

See, Say, Do - A Plan to Improve Reading Comprehension in Young Readers
Défi:Découverte
Catégorie:Intermédiaire
Région:Vancouver Island
Ville:Victoria, BC
École:Lambrick Park Secondary
Sommaire:Stories were written at the grades 1, 3, and 5 levels. All stories had ten comprehension questions associated with them. The grades 3 and 5 stories had manipulatives including an introduction read to the students, photographs or models. Percent oral reading success was compared with comprehension. We are currently checking to see if hearing the story prior to reading it aloud improves comprehension.
