The 'Comprehension: Understanding and Responding to Narrative Texts' mind map template, created by Julia Smith for READ 3262 Fall 2011, organizes 66 nodes across 7 major branches covering guided reading, literature circles, the ABC Model, scaffolding, and acts of comprehension. It provides a structured framework for educators to teach narrative text comprehension, including specific strategies like 'preview text, introduce the genre, go over vocabulary' and 'story mapping where students must identify the character, setting, problem and solution'. This template serves as both a teaching guide and a comprehension cheat sheet for literacy instruction.
