Using Analogies to Study Social Studies Texts.

Kuse, Loretta S.; Kuse, Hildegard R.

Social Education, v50 n1 p24-25 Jan 1986

A strategy to help senior high school social studies students overcome reading problems is suggested. Students are asked to use analogies to describe how they feel when they reach a difficult passage in their textbook. The students then use their own analogies to analyze ways to study the text. (RM)
