Readers need to be continuously aware of whether or not what they are reading makes sense. They need to hone a keen awareness so that when and if meaning breaks down, they will stop and employ strategies to fix it.

She has Jada practice alongside her, and then sends her off to continue using this important comprehension strategy.
