I can develop and follow a personalized reading plan to improve comprehension.

    The KWL method is a reading strategy that involves a warm-up, reading, and cool-down period, similar to exercise.

    In the KWL chart, 'K' stands for what you know, 'W' stands for what you want to know, and 'L' stands for what you learned.

    Before reading, the 'Know' and 'Want to know' sections of the KWL chart help you warm up by activating prior knowledge and formulating questions, while the 'Learned' section serves as a cool-down to improve memory.
